Abstract

Ein Archiv ist, was Menschen sich als Archiv denken: eine Schachtel mit der Aufschrift "Archiv", eine Schatzkammer mit goldenen Kladden. Markus Friedrich schreibt erstmals die Geschichte des Archivs als eine Geschichte unserer Wissenskultur. An der Wende vom Mittelalter zur Frühen Neuzeit wuchs europaweit die Idee, Dokumente an einem festen Ort aufzuheben. Hatte man zuvor die wichtigsten Papierstücke auf Reisen mit sich geführt, gründeten nun viele Fürsten, aber auch Kirchen und Klöster ihre eigenen Archive. Die Geschichte der Archive ist aber nicht nur eine des Bewahrens: Archive sind auch Orte des Vergessens und der Zerstörung. Feuer richteten verheerende Schäden an, ebenso Wasser und Feuchtigkeit. Und je mehr Dokumente aufbewahrt wurden, desto größer wurden die Probleme bei der Ordnung, Verwaltung und Benutzung der Dokumente, bis schließlich nicht nur das Archiv, sondern auch die Figur des Archivars geboren war.

Abstract

Seit seiner Gründung durch Ignatius von Loyola 1540 wirkte der heute größte katholische Männerorden in fast alle Bereiche des gesellschaftlichen Lebens hinein: Zwischen Armenseelsorge und elitärer Wissenschaft, politischer Beratung und weltweiter missionarischer Tätigkeit gibt es kaum ein Gebiet, in dem die Jesuiten nicht tätig waren. Der renommierte Historiker Markus Friedrich erklärt, wie der Orden organisiert war, was ihn so erfolgreich machte, wie das Alltagsleben im Orden aussah, welche Aufgaben er in der säkularen Welt einnahm und wie er damit den Gang der Geschichte prägte.

Abstract

"Since its founding by Ignatius of Loyola in 1540, the Society of Jesus ("The Jesuits") has been intimately involved in the unfolding of the modern world. The young Jesuit order played a crucial role in the Counter Reformation, especially in Poland, southern Germany, and several other parts of Europe. The Jesuits were also participants in the establishment and spread of European empires, engaging in missionary activity in east and south Asia in the 16th and 17th centuries, and becoming central to the spreading of Christianity in the New World. At the same time, Jesuits often tangled with the Roman curia and the Pope, leading to the suppression of the Jesuits in 1773. After the subsequent restoration of the order in 1814, the Jesuits continued to be leaders in Catholic education and theology. In 2013 Jorge Bergoglio became the first Jesuit Pope, taking the name Pope Francis I. In this book, Markus Friedrich presents the first comprehensive account of the Jesuits from a non-Catholic perspective. Drawing on his expertise as a historian of the early modern world, Friedrich situates the Jesuit order within the wider perspective of European history. In particular, he places the Jesuits in the context of social, cultural, and imperial history, showing that the Jesuits were not monolithic but rather were very sensitive to local context and that the order's core texts, especially Ignatius's Spiritual Exercises, were templates to engage with, rather than instructions manuals to be followed slavishly"--

Abstract

"A history of genealogical knowledge-making strategies in the early modern world. In The Maker of Pedigrees, Markus Friedrich explores the complex and fascinating world of central European genealogy practices during the Baroque era. Drawing on archival material from a dozen European institutions, Friedrich reconstructs how knowledge about noble families was created, authenticated, circulated, and published. Jakob Wilhelm Imhoff, a wealthy and well-connected patrician from Nuremberg, built a European community of genealogists by assembling a transnational network of cooperators and informants. Friedrich uses Imhoff as a case study in how knowledge was produced and disseminated during the 17th and 18th centuries. Family lineages were key instruments in defining dynasties, organizing international relations, and structuring social life. Yet in the early modern world, knowledge about genealogy was cumbersome to acquire, difficult to authenticate, and complex to publish. Genealogy's status as a source of power and identity became even more ambivalent as the 17th century wore on, as the field continued to fragment into a plurality of increasingly contradictory formats and approaches. Genealogy became a contested body of knowledge, as a heterogeneous set of actors-including aristocrats, antiquaries, and publishers-competed for authority. Imhoff was closely connected to all of the major genealogical cultures of his time, and he serves as a useful prism through which the complex field of genealogy can be studied in its bewildering richness"-- "The practice of genealogy, in particular the work of Jakob Wilhelm Imhoff from Nuremberg, Germany, a prolific and highly respected genealogical author, is a case study in how knowledge was produced and disseminated in the 17th and 18th centuries. During this time much of Europe was in the grip of a genealogical craze. Family lineages, and their display in multiple textual and visual forms, were key instruments in defining dynasties, organizing international relations, and structuring social life at large. Despite genealogy's overall impact on social, cultural, and political life, however, scholars have so far largely failed to investigate the complex knowledge economy that supported all forms of genealogical argumentation. This monograph, in fact, is the first book-length study of post-1600 continental genealogy"--
