Abstract
In both style and sense Gottfried’s Tristan is shown to be more closely related to the school-rhetoric of his time than previously recognized. The demonstration of a direct link between Tristan and both the antithetical-erotic rhetorical treatise and the school-poem „Pyramus and Thisbe“ of Matthew of Vendome opens a „low road“ to our understanding of the epic.
