The Countess Elisabeth von Nassau-Saarbrücken (c. 1395–1456; also known as Elizabeth of Lorraine-Vaudémont or Isabella of Lotharingen) has long been recognized as a major contributor to fifteenth-century German literature, having published four major romances that she translated from the French originals. Even though recent scholarship has begun to question her authorship, it is certain that those texts were created either by herself or by a team of courtly scribes under her direction.
