We decided to enlarge and revise it for the session at the 40th Medieval Congress in Kalamazoo, with the help of friends and graduates of the Medieval Studies Department at Central European University (Budapest) and the support of the Centre for Medieval Studies, University of Toronto. None the less, it is still a draft, but we felt that half a loaf is more than none. The printed version is an abbreviated one; a more complete guide, with a list of major source-publications of the region will be available on CD-ROM as well as on the homepages of Medieval Studies, CEU (http://medstud.ceu.hu) and of the Centre of Medieval Studies in Toronto (http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/medieval). The final editing and formatting of both the printed and electronic version was done by Zsolt Hunyadi, whom we all owe many thanks. The resources are grouped according to present-day geography, not identical with medieval boundaries. We thought that researchers would wish to see what can they find if they visit one of the countries, and expect that they will be aware of the fact that records for regions that belonged to, say, the medieval kingdom of Hungary, may now be in Slovakia, or, in turn, records of Transylvania, now Romania, may be (also) in Hungarian depositories. The guide to resources in Poland contains, inevitably, sources for the history of Lithuania and other territories not presently part of the Republic as well. And so on. On the other hand, precisely because of the changes in boundaries, overlaps and repetitions (e.g. between Hungary and Croatia) could not be avoided and we did not attempt to sort them out. The sequence of countries is, of course, arbitrary. We decided to go from north to south. Considering that Slavist medievalists and Byzantinists have their own reference works, this time we did not include extensive information on resources on the Slavia Orthodoxa in Greek or the eastern Slavic languages. Altogether, we gave preference to titles and locations that refer to or hold written sources in Latin, whithout fully excluding others. At some point this Guide may have to be augmented with sections on countries adjacent to the presently included ones. (Of course, this raises the question of what is „eastern” or „east-central” Europe—an issue we do not wish to discuss now.) Unfortunately, we did not have enough time to complete the guide for all the areas that may be of interest. We are aware of the fact that one country may be better “covered” than another, even if there would be ample resources to list. Moreover, we did not this time manage to have for every country

  • 17 Infidel Turks and Schismatic Russians in Late Medieval Livonia
    Madis Maasing 17 Infidel Turks and Schismatic Russians in Late Medieval Livonia 17.1 Introduction At the beginning of the sixteenth century, political rhetoric in Livonia was shaped by the threat posed by an alien power: Following a significant deterio- ration in the relations between the Catholic Livonian territories and their mighty Eastern Orthodox neighbour – the Grand Duchy of Moscow – war broke out, lasting from 1501 to 1503, with renewed armed conflict remaining an immi- nent threat until 1509. During this period of confrontation, and afterwards, the Livonians (i.e., the political elite of Livonia) fulminated in their political writ- ings about the gruesome, schismatic, and even infidel Russians, who posed a threat not only to Livonia, but to Western Christendom in general. In the Holy Roman Empire and at the Roman Curia, these allegations were quite favoura- bly received. Arguably, the Livonians’ greatest success took the form of a papal provision for two financially profitable anti-Russian indulgence campaigns (1503–1510). For various political reasons, the motif of a permanent and general ‘Russian threat’ had ongoing currency in Livonia up until the Livonian War (1558–1583). Even after the collapse of the Livonian territories, the Russian threat motif continued to be quite effectively used by other adversaries of Mos- cow – e.g., Poland-Lithuania and Sweden. I will focus here first and foremost on what was behind the initial success of the Russian threat motif in Livonia, but I will also address why it persisted for as long as it did. A large part of its success was the fact that it drew upon a similar phenomenon – the ‘Turkish threat’,1 which played a significant role in the political rhetoric of Early Modern Europe, especially in south-eastern 1 This research was supported by the Estonian Research Council’s PUT 107 programme, “Me- dieval Livonia: European Periphery and its Centres (Twelfth–Sixteenth Centuries)”, and by the European Social Fund’s Doctoral Studies and Internationalization Programme DoRa, which is carried out by Foundation Archimedes.

  • Evidence of the Reformation and Confessionalization Period in Livonian Art
    Ojārs Spārītis EVIDENCE OF THE REFORMATION AND CONFESSIONALIZATION PerIOD IN LIVONIAN ArT INTRODUCTION The singular transitional period that led from the slowly evolving me- dieval vision of the world to a new perception of life with its dynamic expression in works of history and art history texts has been given labels that reflect its chronological evolution, as well as the epithets referring to its philosophical and aesthetic content. To illustrate the variety of the social and spiritual aspects of European spiritual life in the second half of the 15th and the 16th century, literature in the humanitarian spheres exploited concepts from the Renaissance, the Reformation and Counter- Reformation. Concepts of both humanism and hedonism were used to characterize the domestic cultural content and form. However, they fail to reveal the development of the new historical period and contradic- tion-rich diversity of the material and spiritual life in the 15th and 16th centuries, when the growing dominance of economic expansion and the endeavours to acquire new knowledge along with the awareness of the tangible benefits and spiritual advantages of a university education was so characteristic of European culture. The history of spiritual evolution, with the variations related to the Reformation and confessionalization, is characterised by local regional contexts and forms of expression, but it also has a mandatory syn- chronicity with the processes of European political and intellectual life. Looking forward to the 500th anniversary of the Reformation initi- DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12697/BJAH.2015.9.03 24 Ojārs Spārītis Reformation and Confessionalization Period in Livonian Art 25 ated by Martin Luther, it is worth examining the Renaissance-marked – the Teutonic Order and the bishops – used both political and spiritual fine arts testimonies from the central part of the Livonian confedera- methods in their battle for economic power in Riga.

  • Merchants of War: Mercenaries, Economy, and Society in the Late Sixteenth-Century Baltic
    Merchants of War: Mercenaries, Economy, and Society in the Late Sixteenth-Century Baltic by Joseph Thomas Chatto Sproule A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Joseph Thomas Chatto Sproule 2019 Merchants of War: Mercenaries, Economy, and Society in the Late Sixteenth-Century Baltic Joseph Thomas Chatto Sproule Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2019 Abstract The polities of the sixteenth-century Baltic competed and cooperated with one another and with local power groups in fluctuating patterns of rivalry and expedient partnership. Mercenarism thrived in this context, as early modern governments were seldom equipped with the fiscal and logistical tools or the domestic military resources needed to wholly meet the escalating challenges of warfare, while mercenaries themselves were drawn to a chaotic environment that afforded opportunities for monetary gain and promotion into the still- coalescing political elites of the region’s emerging powers. This study sits, like the mercenary himself, at the intersection of the military, the economic, the social, and the political. Broadly, it is an analysis of mercenaries in Livonian and Swedish service during the so-called Livonian War of 1558 to 1583. Mercenaries are examined as agents of the polities for whom they fought and as actors with goals of their own, ambiguously positioned figures whose outsider status and relative independence presented both opportunities and challenges as they navigated the shifting networks of conflict and allegiance that characterized their fractious world. The aims of this study are threefold. The military efficacy of Western and Central European professional soldiers is assessed in an Eastern ii European context, problematizing the notion of Western military superiority in a time of alleged military revolution.

  • Jaan Kross and the Case of Balthasar Russow
    Talivee: Tallinn Historical Fiction 109 Layers of the Past in Tallinn Historical Fiction: Jaan Kross and The Case of Balthasar Russow Elle-Mari Talivee Under and Tuglas Literature Centre of the Estonian Academy of Sciences _____________________________________ Abstract: A tetralogy called Kolme katku vahel (Between Three Plagues: The Story of Balthasar Russow) by the Estonian author Jaan Kross was published in the 1970s. Kross’s aim in this historical novel sequence was to educate his readers about the history of Tallinn and to activate their cultural memory. Kross was inspired by three texts about Tallinn: Balthasar Russow’s Chronika der Provintz Lyffland (‘Chronicle of the province of Livonia’, 1578), a short story entitled ‘Katsumus’ (‘An ordeal’, 1947) published by the exiled Estonian writer Gert Helbemäe in 1947 in Sweden, and a hypothesis by the historian Paul Johansen proposing that the author of the chronicle, Russow, might have been the son of an Estonian wagoner from the Tallinn Vorstadt of Kalamaja. This article discusses how Jaan Kross’s novel differs from earlier fictional treatments by major Estonian novelists of the Baltic German past of Tallinn. Through its comparisons between the varied sources of a modern historical novel sequence, the article’s aim is to show how and why the main character of Kross’s tetralogy changed existing spatial perceptions of Tallinn by unearthing buried elements of the city’s history. Keywords: Literary urban studies; cultural memory; literary geographies; Jaan Kross; Balthasar Russow. Author contact: [email protected] Literary Geographies 7(1) 2021 109-126 Talivee: Tallinn Historical Fiction 110 Introduction A historical city novel allows the reader to perceive a former city space as a thrilling blend of time and space, and to meet the inhabitants of this chronotope.

Halperin THE DOUBLE STANDARD: LIVONIAN CHRONICLES AND MUSCOVITE BARBARITY DURING THE LIVONIAN WAR (1558–1582)* When Ivan IV (Ivan the Terrible, 1533–1584) ordered a Muscovite army to invade Livonia in 1558 he not only launched a war of weapons, but also a war of words. The war propaganda issued by Muscovy’s opponents contributed significantly to the development of the negative image of Ivan as a tyrant and the Russophobic stereotype of Russians as barbarians which persist to this day. This article deals with one genre of these sources, the chronicles written by Livonian Germans during the Livonian War: Johannes Renner’s Livonian History1, * I wish to express my sincerest appreciation to the anonymous reader for Studia Slavica et Balca- nica Petropolitana for valuable comments, and to David Goldfrank for providing me with a copy of the recent monograph by Cornelia Soldat, which is virtually inaccessible in the US. I am solely responsible for all remaining errors. 1 Johannes Renner’s Livonian History 1556–1561 / Tr. Jerry C. Smith and William Urban with J. Ward Jones. Lewiston; NY, 1997. © Charles J.
