Narrenschyff ad Narragoniam

Narrenschyff ad Narragoniam

by Sebastian Brant

Sebastian Brant's 'Narrenschiff' is a late medieval satire that takes the form of a ship carrying over 100 fools on a journey to the fictional land of 'Narragonia.' Through a series of witty and often acerbic verses, Brant critiques the follies and vices of his time, from gluttony and vanity to hypocrisy and greed. The result is a scathing yet entertaining portrait of late medieval society, offering insights into the moral and social attitudes of the period.
