Depictions of the Three Orders and Estates around the Year 1500
This volume highlights the copious and various depictions of the three orders of society during the Late Middle Ages and at the beginning of the Early Modern Period. It discusses the origins and development of the trifunctional division into the orders of the oratores, bellatores and laboratores, and the abundantly preserved visual material, which proves that this scheme was one of the most widespread ideological foundations of European societies at that time. Late Gothic and Renaissance depictions of the three orders of society can be found in different mediums, from woodcuts to wall paintings, and were produced by important artists such as J. Fouquet and Pieter Bruegel, as well as anonymous painters. The vast numbers of preserved examples of this topic confirm the significance and strength of this iconographic theme at the end of the Middle Ages.
Spätmittelalter in landesherrlichen Kanzleien Mitteleuropas
Die landesherrlichen Kanzleien in den Ländern der böhmischen Krone sowie im nordalpinen Teil des Heiligen Römischen Reiches waren in den letzten Jahrzehnten ein nicht allzu häufig frequentiertes Forschungsthema. Der vorliegende Band beinhaltet insgesamt 17 Studien von DiplomatikerInnen aus Deutschland, Österreich, Polen und der Tschechischen Republik. Die vorliegenden Studien beinhalten neben der Vorstellung des aktuellen Standes der spätmittelalterlichen landesherrlichen Diplomatik besonders auch die praktische Anwendung sowohl der traditionellen, als auch der neuen methodischen Herangehensweisen. Es ist klar, dass vor allem die Verwendung der neuen Ansätze oft von einer kritischen Diskussion begleitet wird, in deren Rahmen auf die Grenzen oder eventuelle Modifizierungen der neuen methodischen Impulse hingewiesen wird. Aber gerade solche Diskussionen zeugen zweifellos davon, dass das Fachgebiet der Diplomatik lebendig ist, denn lediglich durch eine gemeinsame Diskussion kann sich die Forschung über die behandelten Themen weiterentwickeln.
