I will compile a reader which will be avaible from the middle of September (office of Mrs Hell and Mrs Daxer). It will also include the seminar text - please copy the seminar reader and bring it along to the first session. Further references will be included in the reader.

If you do not yet own a dictionary of Middle High German please purchase

Hennig, Beate: Kleines Mittelhochdeutsches Wörterbuch. Tübingen 2014. (Older editions are fine)

If you already have

Lexer, Matthias: Mittelhochdeutsches Taschenwörterbuch. Stuttgart 1999.

in this or an older edition, you don't have to buy Hennig.

Please bring along the dictionary to EVERY session - including the first! Thanks!
