Gudrun: A Mediaeval Epic is a book written by Mary Pickering Nichols and published in 1889. It is an English translation of the medieval epic poem Gudrun, which is believed to have been composed in the 13th century. The story revolves around the eponymous heroine Gudrun, who is a princess and the daughter of King Hettel of Hegelingen. Gudrun is married off to King Herwig of Seeland, but their marriage is threatened by a rival king named Hartmut, who kidnaps Gudrun and takes her as his own wife. The story follows Gudrun's struggles as she tries to escape from Hartmut and return to her husband. The book is notable for its vivid descriptions of medieval life and customs, as well as its exploration of themes such as love, loyalty, and honor.
