Die Beiträge dieses Bandes gehen auf eine internationale Tagung zurück, die 2017 in Manchester stattgefunden hat. Sie untersuchen die Darstellung von Geschichte in der mittelalterlichen deutschen Literatur auf der Basis von aktuellen erzähltheoretischen Forschungsansätzen. Dabei wird ein breites Spektrum an Texten, Gattungen und Diskursen in den Blick genommen; als Angelpunkt für zahlreiche relevante Fragestellungen erweist sich die im 12. Jahrhundert entstandene ›Kaiserchronik‹. Geleitet von der Erkenntnis, dass Vergangenheit erst im Erzählen zu Geschichte wird, analysieren die Beiträge einschlägige narrative Strategien.

In all religions, in the medieval West as in the East, ideas about the past, the present and the future were shaped by expectations related to the End. The volumes Cultures of Eschatology explore the many ways apocalyptic thought and visions of the end intersected with the development of pre-modern religio-political communities, with social changes and with the emergence of new intellectual and literary traditions. The two volumes present a wide variety of case studies from the early Christian communities of Antiquity, through the times of the Islamic invasion and the Crusades and up to modern receptions, from the Latin West to the Byzantine Empire, from South Yemen to the Hidden Lands of Tibetan Buddhism. Examining apocalypticism, messianism and eschatology in medieval Christian, Islamic, Hindu and Buddhist communities, the contributions paint a multi-faceted picture of End-Time scenarios and provide their readers with a broad array of source material from different historical contexts. The first volume, Empires and Scriptural Authorities, examines the formation of literary and visual apocalyptic traditions, and the role they played as vehicles for defining a community’s religious and political enemies. The second volume, Time, Death and Afterlife, focuses on key topics of eschatology: death, judgment, afterlife and the perception of time and its end. It also analyses modern readings and interpretations of eschatological concepts.

Two opposing views of the future in the Middle Ages dominate recent historical scholarship. According to one opinion, medieval societies were expecting the near end of the world and therefore had no concept of the future. According to the other opinion, the expectation of the near end created a drive to change the world for the better and thus for innovation. Close inspection of the history of prognostication reveals the continuous attempts and multifold methods to recognize and interpret God’s will, the prodigies of nature, and the patterns of time. That proves, on the one hand, the constant human uncertainty facing the contingencies of the future. On the other hand, it demonstrates the firm believe during the Middle Ages in a future which could be shaped and even manipulated. The handbook provides the first overview of current historical research on medieval prognostication. It considers the entangled influences and transmissions between Christian, Jewish, Islamic, and non-monotheistic societies during the period from a wide range of perspectives. An international team of 63 renowned authors from about a dozen different academic disciplines contributed to this comprehensive overview.

The tenth and eleventh centuries in medieval Europe are commonly seen as a time of uncertainty and loss: an age of lawless aristocrats, of weak political authority, of cultural decline and dissolute monks, and of rampant superstition. It is a period often judged from its margins, compared (mostly negatively) to what came before and what would follow. We impose upon it both a sense of nostalgia and a teleology, as they somehow knowingly foreshadow what is to come. Seeking to complicate this mischaracterisation, which is primarily the invention of nineteenth and early twentieth century historiography, this book maps the movement between two intellectual stances: a shift from prophetic to apocalyptic thinking. Although the roots of this change lay in Late Antiquity, the fulcrum of this transition lies in the tenth and eleventh centuries. Biblical commentators in the fourth and fifth centuries enforced a particular understanding of sacred time that held until the ninth century, when exegetes of the ninth century found in their commentaries a different plan for God's new chosen people. This came into stark relief as the new kingdom of Israel (the Frankish empire under the Carolingians) had splintered in the 840s. God was manifesting his displeasure with the chosen people by fire and sword. What was perhaps unforeseen was that these commentaries that were written in the specific context of the Carolingian Civil War would be heavily copied and read for the next 200 years. Ideas that formed in a world that actively lamented the loss of empire had to be translated to a world that could only dream of that empire. As they spread across Europe, these ideas became the basis for monastic educational practices, and bled into other types of textual production, such as supposedly "secular" histories. Between Prophecy and Apocalypse charts an intellectual transformation triggered when the prescriptions laid out towards the end of the Carolingian empire began to be "realized" in subsequent centuries. Nostalgia entwined with an attentiveness to possible futures and spun together so tightly as to become a double helix. Ultimately, this book will offer a way to understand the central Middle Ages, a period of dynamic intellectual ferment when ideas could inspire action and (seemingly banal) conceptions of time and history could inspire moments of dramatic transformation and horrific violence.

Apocalypse and Reform from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages provides a range of perspectives on what reformist apocalypticism meant for the formation of Medieval Europe, from the Fall of Rome to the twelfth century. It explores and challenges accepted narratives about both the development of apocalyptic thought and the way it intersected with cultures of reform to influence major transformations in the medieval world. Bringing together a wealth of knowledge from academics in Britain, Europe and the USA this book offers the latest scholarship in apocalypse studies. It consolidates a paradigm shift, away from seeing apocalypse as a radical force for a suppressed minority, and towards a fuller understanding of apocalypse as a mainstream cultural force in history. Together, the chapters and case studies capture and contextualise the variety of ideas present across Europe in the Middle Ages and set out points for further comparative study of apocalypse across time and space. Offering new perspectives on what ideas of ‘reform’ and ‘apocalypse’ meant in Medieval Europe, Apocalypse and Reform from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages provides students with the ideal introduction to the study of apocalypse during this period.

This volume explores 'unknown time' as a cultural phenomenon, approaching past futures, unknown presents, and future pasts through a broad range of different disciplines, media, and contexts. As a phenomenon that is both elusive and fundamentally inaccessible, time is a key object of fascination. Throughout the ages, different cultures have been deeply engaged in various attempts to fill or make time by developing strategies to familiarize unknown time and to materialize and control past, present, or future time. Arguing for the perennial interest in time, especially in the unknown and unattainable dimension of the future, the contributions explore premodern ideas about eschatology and secular future, historical configurations of the perception of time and acceleration in fin-de-siècle Germany and contemporary Lagos, the formation of ‘deep time’ and ‘timelessness’ in paleontology and ethnographic museums, and the representation of time—past, present, and future alike—in music, film, and science fiction.

Wer das eigene Leben beschreibt, vergleicht sich mit anderen und mit sich selbst: Unter diesem Gesichtspunkt nehmen die vier Wissenschaftler*innen aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen die Geschichte des autobiographischen Schreibens neu in den Blick. Leitend ist dabei die Erkenntnis, dass in Selbstbeschreibungen nicht ein vermeintlich autonomes Ich im Mittelpunkt steht, sondern ein stets in Beziehung stehendes relationales Selbst. Wie sich solche Individualität durch das Sich-Selbst-Vergleichen auf historisch jeweils unterschiedliche Weise herstellt, wird anhand von Autor*innen wie Petrus Abaelard, Guibert von Nogent, Giovanni di Pagolo Morelli, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Bertha von Suttner, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Didier Eribon und vielen anderen analysiert.

Die Endlichkeit menschlicher Existenz ist anthropologisch konstant, doch sind die Formen ihrer Wahrnehmung historisch und kulturell höchst variabel. Dieser Band untersucht verschiedene Umgangsformen mit dem Tod in Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit. In der Konfrontation mit der eigenen Sterblichkeit werden in vielfältigen Bewältigungsstrategien wie Erzählungen, Bildern, Symbolen und Ritualen für das mittelalterliche Denken grundlegende Aspekte von Zeitlichkeit reflektiert, die sich als Phänomene von Heterochronie beschreiben lassen. Das Spektrum der Beiträge eröffnet so einen Zugang zu einem differenzierten historischen Verständnis der vielfältigen Austauschphänomene zwischen Diesseits und Jenseits wie auch der Integration divergenter Zeithorizonte in die mittelalterliche Lebenspraxis. The finite nature of human existence is anthropologically constant. However, the characteristics of its perception varies extremely throughout history and within different cultures. This volume analyses different ways to cope with death in the Middle Ages and Early Modern times. In the confrontation with one's own mortality various coping strategies like narratives, pictures, symbols and rituals reflect fundamental aspects of medieval thinking that can be described as phenomena of heterochrony. Thus, the various contributions enable an access to a sophisticated historical understanding of the various interchangeable phenomena between this life and the hereafter as well as the integration of divergent time horizons in the medieval life practice.

Zeiten, in denen vielfältige Umbrüche wahrgenommen werden, fordern und ermöglichen neue Formen der Darstellung und Deutung von Gegenwart. Die Studie handelt von den damit verbundenen Herausforderungen. Gefragt wird nach Darstellungsmodi und Deutungsmodellen von Gegenwart, gesucht wird nach Merkmalen, die Gegenwartsbetrachtungen ausmachen. Welche kognitiven Muster bringen welche Gegenwart hervor? Welche Gegenwart evoziert welche Darstellung? Im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung stehen die Werke zweier Bischöfe des regnum Italiae in der Mitte des 10. Jahrhunderts – einer Zeit, die geprägt war von Machtwechseln an der Spitze und Loyalitätskonflikten, der Frage danach, was soziale Bindungen konstituiert, und der Konkurrenz zwischen Alteingesessenen und homines novi sowie den Effekten sozialer Mobilität, der intensiven Neulektüre dialektischer Werke und Bischöfen, die zur Ordnung mahnten. Dass unterschiedliche Wege beschritten werden können, um die Vielschichtigkeit der eigenen Zeit zu bündeln, zeigt die vergleichende Untersuchung der Werke Rathers von Verona und Attos von Vercelli: Annäherungen an Gegenwart sind nicht alternativlos.
