Investiture Controversy and regnum Teutonicum

中世纪拉丁语单词“条顿尼西”（Teutonici）首次出现在奥托三世皇帝统治时期，意为“日耳曼人”，而非说方言的人。(994 - 1002)。在所谓的“授职争议”期间，教皇格列高利七世。（1073-85）和国王亨利四世（1056-1106），一些德语来源开始使用拉丁语表达“regnum Teutonicurn”（=“德意志王国”），或“rex Teutonicorurn”（=“德意志国王”）等频繁。这个项目的目的是分析这一显著变化的政治和历史背景，这些变化似乎表明了中世纪盛期罗马帝国传统（如朱利叶斯·凯撒）和法兰克传统（如查理曼）之间德意志身份的特殊形式。主要的历史来源如下：教皇格列高利七世的信件。，《赫斯菲尔德兰伯特年鉴》（约1078/79），《科隆/西格堡匿名修道士文集》（约1078/81）。

The medieval Latin word "Teutonici', which means not vernacular-speaking-people but "Germans", appears for the first time in the reign of Emperor Otto III. (994-1002). In the period of the so-called "Investiture Controversy" between Pope Gregory VII. (1073-85) and King Henry IV. (1056-1106), some of the German sources began to use the Latin expression "regnum Teutonicurn" (="German Kingdom"), or "rex Teutonicorurn" (="King of Germans") etc. frequently.The purpose of this project is to analyze the political and historical background of this remarkable changes, which seem to suggest the special forms of German Identity between the Roman imperial Tradition (cf. Julius Caesar) and Frankish Tradition (cf. Charlemagne) in the High Middle Ages. The main historical sources are as follows : the Letters of Pope Gregory VII., Annales of Lampert of Hersfeld (ca.1078/79) and Annolied of anonymous monk of Koln/Siegburg (ca.1078/81).
