IV. Erzählen vor Gericht
Since the 13 th century, the interrogation of witnesses has been firmly anchored in medieval finding of justice. Theory and practice are in a reciprocal relationship with society, which recurs to testimonies in order to find justice. The level of reflection in the law books is high. Particular attention is paid to the question of who must be excluded from the witness stand, whereas the question of who is suitable is of secondary interest. On the …
Community, society and memory in late medieval nunneries
The question of what held functionally differentiated societies together was one of the key concerns that drove the nascent social sciences in the late nineteenth century. Whereas the term society did not imply personal attachment, the idea of community, by contrast, was thought to be rooted in belonging and togetherness, and hence in emotions. In the social world of medieval monasticism community and society were interwoven in myriad ways. Over …
Kleinkredite im städtischen Wirtschaftsleben des ausgehenden 15. Jahrhunderts
Today micro-credit market has five characteristic features: 1. the small value of the loan; 2. the short-term nature of the repayment, 3. mostly by instalments; 4. the renunciation of real estate securities; and 5., usually, the not requiring a prescribed end-use. It is for this reason that small loans were one of the most widespread means of economic exchange in late Medieval urban societies. However, it is still necessary to define what smallne…

Comme d’autres sciences humaines, l’économie répond d’une manière ou d’une autre au présent. Pour autant, les manuels d’économie comportent peu de références à l’historicité du crédit à la consommation en lien avec les modes contemporains de recours à la banque et à l’usage des cartes. L’économie n’offre en effet pas le meilleur moyen de s’y intéresser. D’autres entrées comme d’anthropologie historique, apparaissent beaucoup plus riches comme l’a…

Die Wirtschaftspraktiken eines spätmittelalterlichen Goldschmieds
The account book of the goldsmith Steven Maignow is singular, even in European perspective a unique document. Considering the astonishing amount of account books preserved in archives all over Europe Maignowʼs book is the only one written by a goldsmith. The singularity of the document is not only due to his uniqueness, but also to the fact that Maignow’s account book grants us highly precious insights into the business practices of a late mediev…
Dying for the Faith, Killing for the Faith
The history of influence of the old testamentary Maccabees is the focus of the essays collected in this book, which extend thematically and chronologically from the cult of martyrs in late antiquity to the time of the modern wars of liberation
Similitude, égalité et réciprocité
Dans les sociétés urbaines cisalpines, contrairement au monde méditerranéen, le mariage comme pratique sociale et comme objet de discours théologique et didactique est régi par des représentations d'égalité et de réciprocité. De ces discours, qui recourent à l'idée du mariage paradisiaque développée dans l'Antiquité tardive, traite la première partie de cet article, tandis qu'une série de contrats de mariage, en particulier ceux conservés dans le…
Anchoritic Traditions of Medieval Europe
Religion civique – Patriotisme urbain
On considère généralement que c’est dans la cité tardo-médiévale que serait né le souci du Bien Commun, et que c’est là qu’un esprit civique aurait émergé, dans une forme spécifiquement pré-moderne, jusqu’à constituer une sorte de religion civique. Mais ces théories rebattues se vérifient-elles en pratique ? Le lien qui unissait les bourgeois à la communauté urbaine était-il vraiment aussi étroit que cela ? L’« esprit civique » n’est-il pas plutô…

Nikolaus of Flüe († 1487)
During the fifteenth century the number of saints increased dramatically. But most of them had already been dead for centuries and were known only through the pages of their vitae. Living saints became rare, chiefly because of the unwaveringly skeptical approach towards them. Critics were always asking, How does one recognise a saint? What do "real" saints look like? What is the relationship between what is outside and what is inside, between the…
Veil, Hat or Hair? Reflections on an Asymmetrical Relationship
The letters of the apostle Paul to the Corinthian community were a keystone in the edifice of Christian thought during the Middle Ages, as far as evaluating the positions of men and women went. Particularly decisive in this regard was the section of the letters in which Paul explained why women were expected to wear the veil in church while men had to keep their heads uncovered. The history of the reception of this section of the Corinthian lette…
