Denmark and Europe in the Middle Ages, c.1000–1525
Where medieval Denmark and Scandinavia as a whole has often been seen as a cultural backwater that passively and belatedly received cultural and political impulses from Western Europe, Professor Michael H. Gelting and scholars inspired by him have shown that the intellectual, religious and political elite of Denmark actively participated in the renaissance and reformation of the central and later medieval period. This work has wide ramifications for understanding developments in medieval Europe, but so far the discussion has taken place only in Danish-language publications. This anthology brings the latest research in Danish medieval history to a wider audience and integrates it with contemporary international discussions of the making of the European middle ages.
Writing Architectural History
Over the past two decades, scholarship in architectural history has transformed, moving away from design studio pedagogy and postmodern historicism to draw instead from trends in critical theory focusing on gender, race, the environment, and more recently global history, connecting to revisionist trends in other fields. With examples across space and time—from medieval European coin trials and eighteenth-century Haitian revolutionary buildings to Weimar German construction firms and present-day African refugee camps—Writing Architectural History considers the impact of these shifting institutional landscapes and disciplinary positionings for architectural history. Contributors reveal how new methodological approaches have developed interdisciplinary research beyond the traditional boundaries of art history departments and architecture schools, and explore the challenges and opportunities presented by conventional and unorthodox forms of evidence and narrative, the tools used to write history.
Der Havelberger Dombau und seine Ausstrahlung
Der 1170 als romanische Basilika geweihte Dom St. Marien in Havelberg gehört zu den ältesten Kirchenbauten östlich der Elbe. Durch seinen gotischen Umbau nach dem Brand 1279 vereinigt er die beiden mittelalterlichen Baustile der Romanik und Gotik auf eindrucksvolle Weise. Die Klosteranlage aus dem 12. bis 14. Jahrhundert ergänzt das imposant auf einer Anhöhe über der Havel gelegene Bauwerk. Die interessante Baugeschichte und hochwertige Ausstattung beschäftigt seit Jahrzehnten Kunsthistoriker und Bauforscher, die überraschende neue Ergebnisse hervorbrachten und andererseits neue Fragen aufwarfen. 0Die Beiträge widmen sich historischen, kunstgeschichtlichen und denkmalpflegerischen Fragestellungen. Geschichte, Architektur und Ausstattung des Havelberger Domes werden in ihrer Wechselbeziehung und Ausstrahlung auf die Region erstmals beleuchtet und diskutiert.

Ritterliche Taten der Gewalt
Florian Dörschel deals with the martial side of German chivalry towards the end of the Middle Ages. Knightly violence was at the center of social, military and political life as an instrument of power, representation and communication. Florian Dörschel befasst sich mit der kriegerischen Seite des deutschen Rittertums im ausgehenden Mittelalter. Diese ritterliche Gewalt stand als Machtinstrument, Repräsentations- und Kommunikationsmittel im Mittelpunkt des sozialen, militärischen und politischen Lebens.
