About

The song book of Anna of Cologne represents an impressive testimonial to the spiritual and cultural life in the Rhine-Meuse region during the Late Middle Ages. It comprises eighty-two Latin and vernacular songs. The songs express religious devotion to God and the veneration of the Virgin Mary whilst also reminding the listener to bear in mind the ‘Grim Reaper’ and not strive for prestige and success in the world, where Fortune’s wheel makes enduring happiness impossible. The joys of the Kingdom of Heaven, on the other hand, are longingly extolled in song
