Siegmar was in the process of finishing his autobiography when he died; the manuscript was first published in 1609 as ''Lebenserfahrungen und Erinnerungen des Reichsritters Siegmarns von Willing'' (Life experiences and memoirs of Knight of the Realm Siegmar von Willing) by his widow, having been minimally edited by a [[Gabion]] scribe. The original manuscript is known to be one of the few works to have been saved from the collections of the [[University of Collinebourg]] which was otherwise lost in the [[Great Fire of Collinebourg]] in 1728. A 1771 reprint entitled ''Mein Fehd und Leben'' (My Feuds and Life) became the new de facto title of the work for future prints. The book received considerable interest during the early [[Yonderian Golden Age]] of the 1820s which sparked a renewed interest in Siegmar's life. Yonderian playwright [[Hieronymus d'Olbourg]] wrote the play "''Siegmar the Iron-Handed''" in 1833 based on a [[East Gothic language|Gothic]] 1825 print of the book.<ref>Häckberg, Viktor C.G.:''Olbourg - a biography'', [[University of Toubourg]], pg. 14 + 61-62. 2004.</ref> | Siegmar was in the process of finishing his autobiography when he died; the manuscript was first published in 1609 as ''Lebenserfahrungen und Erinnerungen des Reichsritters Siegmarns von Willing'' (Life experiences and memoirs of Knight of the Realm Siegmar von Willing) by his widow, having been minimally edited by a [[Gabion]] scribe.
