The historical source materials edited in the 3rd volume, which were collected in more than 40 archives and libraries in Austria, Italy, Germany, Czechia and Switzerland, present Oswald von Wolkenstein as a legal expert, warrior, diplomat, princely servant as well as unrestless politician. He is at feuds with opponents in matters of legacy and engages in the Vehmic courts as a juryman, but is also a versatile servant of the King, princely counsellor and tenacious judge. Through his important role in the local judicature, he achieves high reputation in Tyrol.
