The verses of Mariken van Nieumeghen (Anonymous, c. 1515)
Samenvatting
Mariken van Nieumeghen is one of the best known plays in Dutch literary history, but has found little fame outside the Netherlands. Although an early modern English translation does exist, this was evidently based on a lost prose version. The original play contains numerous verse-passages. There are four self-contained poems in these sections: two rondelen, a sonnet and a refereyn. This article present the first translations of these poems into modern English.
