Burggraf von Rietenburg

Srnec: start


[[File:Burggraf_von_Riedenburg.jpg|thumb|The Burggraf von Rietenburg in the [[Codex Manesse]].]]
The '''Burggraf von Rietenburg'''<ref>For other spellings, see and </ref> (died after 1185) was a [[Middle High German]] lyric poet in the ''[[Minnesang]]'' tradition. He was probably the younger brother of the [[Burggraf von Regensburg]]. All seven of his surviving stanzas are concerned with [[courtly love]].

The poet belonged to the family of the counts of [[Stevening]] and [[Riedenburg]], who held the burgraviate of [[Regensburg]] from 970 until 1185. He is probably to be identified with either Heinrich IV (burgrave from 1176, died after 1184/85) or Otto III (died after 1185).

The Burggraf von Rietenburg and his brother are usually grouped with [[Der von Kürenberg]], [[Dietmar von Aist]] and [[Meinloh von Sevelingen]] as the Danubian poets, part of the first generation of Minnesingers. Within this group, Rietenburg is a transitional figure between the original Danubian style and a new style influenced more heavily by the [[Old Occitan]] [[troubadours]].
