Kraftprobe Herrschaft(Re-)construction of pr-modern rler figures between challenge and assertion

计划中的网络小组将由古代东方研究、旧约和新约以及古代教会历史、古典考古学、拜占庭研究、阿拉伯研究和中世纪研究等主要历史工作学科的代表组成，其重点是前现代统治者的形象。研究的重点不是统治的典型或意识形态方面，而是个别统治者，主要是在面对挑战或质疑他的统治的情况下进行描述。因此，计划小组位于统治者和君主政体的比较研究领域，但同时提供了当前研究景观中没有代表的学科组成和主题重点和具体化。

The focus of the planned network group, which is to be composed of representatives of the primarily historically working disciplines of Ancient Oriental Studies, the Old and New Testaments, as well as the history of the Ancient Church, Classical Archaeology, Byzantine Studies, Arabic Studies and Medieval Studies, is on the figure of the pre-modern ruler. The focus of the research is not on the typical or ideological aspects of rule, but on the individual ruler, who is to be described primarily in situations of confrontation with challenges or questioning of his rule. Thus, the planned group is located in the field of comparative research on rulers and monarchy, but at the same time offers a disciplinary composition and thematic focus and concretization that is not represented in the current research landscape.
