Practicing Love of God in Medieval Jerusalem, Gaul and Saxony
he collection of essays presented in “Devotional Cross-Roads: Practicing Love of God in Medieval Gaul, Jerusalem, and Saxony” investigates test case witnesses of TChristian devotion and patronage from Late Antiquity to the Late Middle Ages, set in and between the Eastern and Western Mediterranean, as well as Gaul and the regions north of the Alps. Devotional practice and love of God refer to people – mostly from the lay and religious elite –, ideas, copies of texts, images, and material objects, such as relics and reliquaries. The wide geographic borders and time span are used here to illustrate a broad picture composed around questions of worship, identity, reli- gious affiliation and gender. Among the diversity of cases, the studies presented in this volume exemplify recurring themes, which occupied the Christian believer, such as the veneration of the Cross, translation of architecture, pilgrimage and patronage, emergence of iconography and devotional patterns. These essays are representing the research results of the project “Practicing Love of God: Comparing Women’s and Men’s Practice in Medieval Saxony” guided by the art historian Galit Noga-Banai, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the histori- an Hedwig Röckelein, Georg-August-University Göttingen. This project was running from 2013 to 2018 within the Niedersachsen-Israeli Program and financed by the State of Lower Saxony.

Percy Ernst Schramm and Herrschaftszeichen
MIRATOR 13/2012 37 Percy Ernst Schramm and Herrschaftszeichen Antti Matikkala The career of the German historian Percy Ernst Schramm (1894–1970) was one of the most interesting and versatile in twentieth-century Germany. His importance lies not only in his innovative studies of medieval history, but also in his high-profile public role which was closely connected to his research interests. Arguably, these were not much more than two sides of the same coin. David Thimme’s intellectual biography Percy Ernst Schramm und das Mittelalter (2006), which is based on his 2003 doctoral thesis, examines Schramm first and foremost as a medievalist, but his roles as social historian, war diarist of the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht and contemporary historian of the Second World War still await more detailed analysis. While Thimme has discussed Schramm’s early career and works in great detail, there is only a relatively brief discussion of Herrschaftszeichen und Staatssymbolik, Schramm’s most important post-war work, and related publications.1 This article discusses Schramm as the historian of Herrschaftszeichen, which became perhaps his most enduring ‘brand’, and analyses his historiographical position and scholarly legacy in this respect, thus supplementing Thimme’s account of this theme. Within a broadly chronological framework, it also gives attention to Schramm’s personality, as well as his public and political role, adding some further insights to his networks by using additional sources not employed by Thimme in his book. Thimme’s biography stems from his work in The Collaborative Research Centre Memory Cultures (Sonderforschungsbereich, SFB 434, Erinnerungskulturen) at the University of Gießen, which also produced Anne Christine Nagel’s Im Schatten des Dritten Reichs: Mittelalterforschung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland 1945–1970.2 The task of writing a biography in the form of a dissertation is not an easy one. -

Three main texts will be examined from across the German and English-speaking worlds of scholarship and ranging widely in their times of publication—that of Kantorowicz (1927), Van Cleve (1972), and lastly Abulafia (1988). In addition, several supplementary texts on the subject from both cultural- linguistic traditions have been included. Prior to the heart of the textual analysis, a comprehensive summary of the dominant Western philosophical views that forged the twentieth- century scholarship on the matter is given in order to enhance the reader’s understanding of the intellectual climate in which these historians participated. The primary argument around which the scholarship centers is the position of the emperor and his reforms in the history of Western civilization. -
Hegel's Ghost: Europe, the Reformation, and the Middle Ages
HEGEL’S GHOST: EUROPE, THE REFORMATION, AND THE MIDDLE AGES ● by Constantin Fasolt When the strident voices of the polemicists are still, when the grand systems of long-dead theologians fall away, when the sixteenth-century mutations of Christianity are seen entirely in historical context, then the Reformation will be regarded not only as Protestant and north- ern, but also as Christian and European. Thomas A. Brady, Jr.1 The purpose of this essay is conceptual, not empirical. It offers no new facts. At least it does not do so in the sense in which the term “facts” is usually understood, which is to say, as true statements about the past drawn in some demonstrable manner from some definite primary source or group of sources lodged in an archive or a library with an identifiable location. It rather aims to cast existing knowledge into a different mold. It does so by confronting two separate bodies of knowledge with each other in order to regard them from a single point of view. The two bodies of knowledge consist of Reformation historiography and medieval historiography. The single point of view takes the Reformation to stand in a direct line of continuity to European-wide developments beginning around the turn of the millennium, including the creation of a governmental church under the leadership of popes like Gregory VII, Alexander III, and Innocent III. What makes this essay possible is that its author is neither a medievalist nor an early modernist: not a medievalist, because he spent the better part of his life in the professional study of early modern European history at the University of Chicago; not an early modernist, because he was trained as a medievalist in Heidelberg and at Co- lumbia University in the seminars of Peter Classen, J. -

althoff Praise for Otto III “Previous historians have seen Otto III as a misguided or even ‡‡‡ tragic political innovator. But for Gerd Althoff, Otto was a savvy ruler well attuned to the political ‘theater’ of his day. Otto III is an excellent introduction to Althoff’s vision of the Middle Ages, where power is exercised and communicated through ritual; where political players follow intricate and well-known—though unwritten—‘rules of the game’; and where modern notions of ‘poli- cies’ and ‘ideologies’ have no place. This book rightly challenges us to suspend our modern statist assumptions as we consider the nature of medieval rulership.” —Barbara H. Rosenwein, Loyola University Chicago Otto lll From the Reviews of the German Edition “Althoff’s careful attention to the sources (quoted extensively in the translation with full Latin citations) and his insights regarding the ritualistic and demonstrative behavior of the early Middle Ages mark this as a book that demands the attention of scholars and students alike and one that should have an English translation.” —John W. Bernhardt, Speculum “Not without reason does Althoff conclude his thought-provoking appraisal of Otto by allowing for an individuality that shines through all conventions.” —h.e.j.
