Stadtgeschichte(n)

Stadt und Kultur in Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit

The title 'Medieval urban history/stories' evokes the dual meaning of the word as an event and as a narrative. On the one hand, it is about the event itself, and on the other, about what is reported and narrated about this event, i.e. urban historiography and the literature produced in the city. This anthology brings together contributions that examine the representation of the city in literature, art and historiography as well as a specifically urban culture in the Middle Ages and early modern period. To this end, sources are selected from the extensive corpus in which topography and institutions, buildings and inhabitants are explicitly addressed and become the subject of narration, praise and historical representation. The aim is to combine older approaches to social history with more recent ones, such as imagological approaches. 

Johannes Klaus Kipf is a private lecturer in German Medieval and Early Modern Studies at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. His main areas of research are the media change in the 15th century, the history of small literary forms in the late Middle Ages and early modern period and the beginning of vernacular writing in the early Middle Ages.

Jörg Schwarz is Professor of Medieval History and Auxiliary Historical Sciences at the University of Innsbruck. His main working areas are the history of the Empire in the High and Late Middle Ages, the history of England in the Middle Ages, the history of medieval historiography and the history of the medieval city, especially urban historiography.
