This edition presents English translations of the accounts of three important twelfth-century travellers to the Holy Land, the Anglo-Saxon Saewulf and the Germans John of Würzburg and Theoderic, based on the edition of the Latin texts. Saewulf travelled to the Holy Land soon after its capture by the First Crusade in 1099. His travelogue, framed by accounts of his outward sea journeys from southern Italy to Jaffa and back to Constantinople, describes the buildings and holy sites of Jerusalem and its surrounding countryside as they appeared in the early years of the Frankish kingdom, before the major building works that characterized the short century of Christian rule over the city were fully under way. In contrast, the two German descriptions give more detailed accounts of the transformation that the city and surrounding landscape had undergone and of the new churches and monasteries and their artistic programmes that had been created by the 1160s and 1170s. The translated texts are preceded by an introduction placing the texts in their historical context and are accompanied by brief explanatory notes with bibliographical indications for further information

Theoderich der Große (um 453-526) gehört zu den faszinierendsten Herrschergestalten der Völkerwanderungszeit. Wie kein anderer Germanenkönig beeindruckte und polarisierte der Ostgote seine Mit- und Nachwelt. Die Urteile schwanken zwischen Verklärung als idealer Herrscher und Verdammung als Tyrann und häretischer Verfolger. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht erstmals systematisch und übergreifend das vielgestaltige Bild Theoderichs in der byzantinischen und westlichen Überlieferung von den zeitgenössischen Anfängen bis ins 9. Jahrhundert. Behandelt werden nicht nur literarische Zeugnisse, sondern aussagekräftige Quellen wie Inschriften, Münzen oder der Umgang mit Bildwerken und Bauten des Ostgotenkönigs finden ebenfalls Berücksichtigung. Andreas Goltz ordnet die zeitlich und regional höchst unterschiedlichen Darstellungen und Bewertungen Theoderichs in ihren gattungsspezifischen, überlieferungsgeschichtlichen und zeithistorischen Kontext ein, analysiert die Motive und Hintergründe für die verschiedenartigen Sichtweisen auf den Ostgotenkönig und trägt auf diese Weise maßgeblich zum Verständnis Theoderichs, seiner Zeit und seiner Wirkungsgeschichte bei.
