Long-term Project for Coverage and Publication of Calendars in Order to Secure the Historical Tradition of the Younger Charters of the Threse (1400-1529) from Staatsarchiv (State Archive) Hamburg - renewal proposal II (project phase II)

虽然汉堡的历史在国际历史研究中也涉及到德语讨论的不同相关方面，但它在中世纪晚期的发展仍然不为人所知。这是由于1842年的大火和第二次世界大战期间的疏散造成的原始文件缺乏保存。在1400年以后的时期，只有几个零散的版本。尽管如此，汉堡市议会的保护档案馆Threse可以追溯到中世纪，它是一个中央文档库，从过去提供的文件几乎没有损失。它仍在等待现代的评估和版本。有问题的档案材料包含来自欧洲不同地区的宪章，由不同的作者撰写。它们涉及帝国或教皇的法令，私人之间或与地区贵族之间的财产或法律案件的商业交易，允许深入了解法院、和平条约、宣布世仇和许多其他方面的对应关系。因此，现代研究只能有限而困难地获得关于该市日益增长的领土权威、其在北海贸易和北欧贸易路线中的作用以及其日益融入政治和外交网络的基本信息。抛开德国的研究兴趣不谈，这也涉及到汉萨关系、城镇比较史和德英关系的研究。因此，申请的项目将以日历的形式提供档案材料的汇编，将印刷版本和在线版本结合在一起。印刷版的功能是提供材料的永久概览，其中较长的日历概括了来源的主要内容，提到了所有人和地点，描述了文件的形式，列出了印刷版和进一步的传统。日历将按不同方面编入索引。在线版提供较短的日历，这些日历与来自同一时间的其他来源的上下文放在一起，并可能通过全文版进行扩展。它们应允许以后重新编写和更正，以对不断变化的研究要求做出反应。因此，该项目将首次以科学和持续的方式为历史研究准备重要材料，并以标准化的形式、不受地点和时间限制地准予查阅。因此，它将对更好地了解欧洲和德国中世纪后期的历史做出重要贡献。在第二阶段中，应提供1441年至1490年的文件，该阶段将在这里适用，计划为期三年。预计最后的第三阶段只需两年时间，将涵盖1491年至1529年。

Though the history of Hamburg concerns different relevant aspects discussed in German as well in international historical research, its late medieval development is still not well known. This is due to a lack of the preservation of original documents caused by the great fire in 1842 and by the evacuations during the Second World War. For the period after 1400, there are only a few, scattered editions. Nevertheless there is the Threse, the protection archive of the Hamburg town council, reaching back until the Middle Ages, which is a central corpus of documents which has been delivered from the past nearly without losses. It still awaits a modern assessment and edition. The archive materials in question contain charters from different regions of Europe and are made out by different authors. They concern imperial or papal ordinances, business in properties or law cases between private persons or with the regional nobility, allow insights into the correspondance of the law courts, peace treaties, the announcement of feuds and many other aspects. Modern research has thus only limited and difficult access to basic information concerning the growing territorial authority of the city, its role for the North Sea trade and the Northern European trade routes as well as its growing integration into political and diplomatic networks. German research interests set aside, this also relates to research on the Hanseatic relations, the comparative history of towns and on German-English relations. Therefore the project which is applied for will provide the compilation of the archive materials in form of a calendar which combines versions in print and online. The printed edition has the function to provide a permanent overview on the materials, in which longer calendars summarize the main content of the sources, mention all persons and places, describe the form of the documents, list printed editions and further traditions. The calendars will be indexed for different aspects. The online edition offers shorter calendars which are put in the context with other source from the same time and may be extended by full-text edtions. They shall allow later reworking and corrections to react on changing requirements of research. Thus, the project will for the first time scientifically and continuously prepare important materials for historical research and grant access in a standardised form and independent from place and time. It will thus render an important contribution to a better understanding of the European as well as the German history of the Later Middle Ages. In Phase II, for which is applied here, and which is scheduled for three years, the documents for the years 1441 to 1490 shall be made accessible. The projected final Phase III which is only intended to take two years, shall cover the years 1491 to 1529.
