Abstract: With the help of
technology the German King and Emperor Frederick III who reigned from
1440 until 1493, has come more into the focus of historical research.
In previous decades he was not as highly respected as a medieval ruler
but new research methods have brought him into a better light. The
collection of sources - the Regesta Imperii - concerning the
emperor’s government is not only printed, but is available as
a database with over 18,400 registers of decrees online.
Using these datasets - including the parameters of time and space for
each historical document - a Historical GIS (Geographical Information
System, HGIS, Digital Humanities) was designed. An interactive map
gives direct access to the
collection of sources in time and space. Were there any stationary or
mobile phases during Fredrick’s III reign? Which time periods
did these phases cover?
The analysis using a Historical GIS showed that Frederick III was a
very mobile monarch in the typical medieval style, but at the same time
he was already developing centres of power like Wiener Neustadt.
Because of this Frederick III can he classified as a ruler at a turning
point in history.
The master-thesis (Magister Artium) was supervised by Prof. Dr.
Jürgen Sarnowsky, History Department, Middle Ages, at the University
of Hamburg
in 2007/2008.
