Edward Haymes has a number of research interests that radiate from his primary interest in Middle High German Heroic epic. He has published a book on the Nibelungenlied (which was heavily revised and republished in Germany).  He is currently working on questions of the oral theory as applicable to medieval Germanic literature. A major secondary are has been Old Norse literature. Finally his interest in music has led to a number of publications on Richard Wagner.
