Jalabert, Laurent. "Catholiques et protestants sur la rive gauche du Rhin : droits, confessions et coexistence religieuse de 1648 à 1789." Nancy 2, 2006. http://docnum.univ-lorraine.fr/public/NANCY2/doc282/2006NAN21020.pdf.
Full textThe denominational history on the left bank of the Rhine is indissociable from the political history of the 17th and 18th centuries. This period, which was dominated by Protestantism, knew deep religious upheavals after 1648, because of the policy of occupation led by Louis XIV, and because of the changes emerging from princely dynasties : occupations, heritages and conversions opened the way to the catholic revival. Some other upheavals that took place during the 17th century were ended by the treaty of Ryswick (1697), which endorsed the religious innovations favorable to Catholicism, taking international law into consideration. The bases of the peace of Osnabrück (1648) had then to cohabit with a new denominational rule which recognized the public worship with the Catholics. That's why the 18th century seems to be a long phase of religious standardization which witnessed the deepening of denominational identities, both reinforced in opposition and coexisting in everyday life

Full textThe work presented in this thesis focuses on the management of the burghers' military duties and their martial practices in city controlled shooting societies or in interurban marksmen contests in the Holy Roman Empire during the 15th and the 16th centuries. The breadth of the subject is proven by the consequent historiography which is the subject of the first part. The principles of the martial urban culture in the Empire, then the marksmen societies themselves form the second and third parts. Civic authorities financed, privileged and supervised the marksmen. Shooting contest were a major gathering occasion between cities : the last part focuses on the decision processes once a city wants to organize such contests and to welcome foreign delegates. This study describes not only a major form of premodern sport, based on martial and manly ethics, but also a neglected form of urban associations. The marksmen phenomenon is also an occasion to reveal the cultural transfers inside the imperial space and the evolution of urban hierarchies and networks, through the Reform era or the decline of the Free and Imperial Cities

Full textThis book analyzes the way French statesmen, diplomats, jurists and historians thought about the Holy Roman Empire during the period that extends from the peace congress of Westphalia to the Renversement des alliances (1643–1756). The main subject of the study is their knowledge of German public law. It pays particular attention to translations as a source of historical knowledge, given that the French versions of German fundamental laws and of the international treaties signed in Latin by France and the Emperor can be used like a seismograph showing the translators’ interpretation of the German constitution. The study also analyzes French books and memorandums on German law and history, demonstrating that the French foreign policy towards Germany was an application of an already acquired constitutional knowledge as well as a source of new knowledge. Furthermore, it pays attention to the role of Alsace in the process of the transfer of knowledge and, from the point of view of an entangled history, to the way in which Germans themselves judged French knowledge of German public law. In the course of the study, it becomes clear that the French notion of the Empire, for all its heterogeneity and complexity (which historiography has neglected so far), appropriately referred to the Empire as a federal state combining monarchical and aristocratic elements. Thus the French authors developed a terminology which could properly describe the institutions and functions of the Empire’s constitution, thereby contributing to the rise of French as a diplomatic language. In this process the Alsatians and the Germans living in France played a leading role as cultural mediators

Paris, EHESS, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011EHES0094.
Full textThis work intends to analyze some aspects of the Spanish projection in the Holy Empire during the 16th and the 17th centuries through the role of the archbishops of Mainz who also are territorial princes, arch-chancellors for the Empire and electors. The study begins when Emperor Charles V abdicates, an event that compels the Habsburgs in Spain and those in Austria to find a new way to organize their relations. First, Philip II goes on using the family and dynastic links that tie him to the emperor. Nevertheless, with Rudolph II's refusaI to consider Spanish wishes and with the beginning of the Flemish upheaval, the Catholic King has to build up a new net to increase his influence in the Empire. As a consequence, nets of clients are installed progressively and the archbishops of Mainz have a leading part in them: they keep contacts with ail of the princes in the Holy Empire and they can warn the Spanish King with the intelligence they collect, they have an influential role in the Electoral College where they can speak for the Catholic Monarch This alliance is possible thanks to the same definition of the Empire they share and it works until the last decade of the Thirty Years' War. Then, as the Spanish money arrives with a greater irregularity in the Empire and as discrepancies in the political objectives appear, the archbishops of Mainz leave the Spanish clientele and become closer advisors of the emperor

Full textCarnival, which was emblematic of the festive culture in mediaeval Europe, has disappeared to a large extent today. The question of the impact of the Reformation has often come up without being studied: what part did Luther and his followers play in this evolution? In the Holy Roman Empire carnival was first used as a means for destabilizing the Roman Catholic Church and taking away its sacred aura. As early as 1520 Luther adopted its low-level language, which was most suitable for satire and consistent with the principle of universal priesthood. Carnivals make fun of the Catholic Church as an unwholesome component of society and favor the religious revolution in presenting the restoration of order as the fruit of the reformation of a « foolish » Church. However,as the carnival subversive power was being revealed and the Protestant clerics started defining it as the feast ofthe false Church, Lutheran churches turned against it. Since then, preachers and reformers did try and find pastoral and liturgical ways of supplanting it. In theory, these efforts were supported by the action of the temporal authorities. But the latter were a long time taking on their responsibility and moreover considering carnival very harmful to society, against its traditional diplomatic and civic cohesion role. This long-term fight against carnival which leads progressively to its banning by the Lutheran churches expresses the refusal of a profane culture preexisting to Reformation. The reasons why it took such a long time to eradicate carnival are both its rooting inancient custom and its protean character

Full textThis PhD analyses how the principal German ministers of the 18th century use their personal and informal relationships (friendship, patronage…) when they have to act beyond the borders of their state : in other words, it focuses on a particular way of acting. These relationships appear to be particularly efficient when it comes to taking action at a distance, and they are, therefore, fundamental for the power of the ministers. The scope of the work is the English diplomatic offensive in the Holy Roman Empire of the 1720's and 1750's : we observe how the ministers of several German territories (Hanover, Prussia, Cologne, Saxony and Wolfenbüttel) used their relations to act for or against this diplomacy. Through this analysis, we want to link different historiographical topics, which remain usually separate, and renew them by doing so: first, the functioning of the Holy Roman Empire, which depends not only on its institutions, but also depends on the networks which irrigate the Empire. To look at them is a way to avoid the question of its political nature, and to see how the imperial level and the level of the territories were functioning as a common system. Second, the diplomatic history: by looking at the personal networks of the ministers, we are able to challenge the idea of an ever-more “professional” diplomacy during modern times. The ministers and the princes depended on these personal networks, which constituted a parallel and complementary level of the “official” diplomacy

Full textThis doctoral thesis examines and demonstrates the progressive transformation in the Renaissance of geographical knowledge into a scientific discipline as it is defined by an exisiting corpus of authorical texts covering a field of knowledge, by a series of specialized notions, by a list of theoretical and practical problems or questions, by a community of practitioners and sometimes even by a certain degree of professionalisation. The choice of the German and protestant area is justified on the one hand by the historically early eagerness of German humanists to establish a modern portrait of Germania - this interest arises at the end of the fifteenth century and stays virulent through the sixteenth century - and on the other hand by the interest for the mathematical, especially the geographical sciences in Lutherian protestant milieux and later on also in Calvinist environnements. The mathematical sciences were to relegitimize the teaching and practice of philosophy in view of the development of the new religious doctrines. Theses specific intellectual and religious orientations favour the activity of German Scholars in the field of geographics. Limiting this research to the protestant environnement leads to questions on the relationship between a Christian confession and the definition of a field of knowledge and on the way protestant doctrines shape the content and the approaches to geography. The final question is to what extend it is possible to speak of a "protestant geography"? Covering the historical period from 1530 to the 1620ies, this study focusses in a first step the evolving theoretical definitions of the geographic knowledge and the changing status of its practitioners. In a second step, this study raises the question of the teaching of geography in the universities and the protestant schools of the Holy Empire. In a third step, the study brings into the focus the production of the scientific knowledge and examines the practical, intellectual and social modalities of the process of bringing geography into life. How does the context of this production shape the content and the form of the geographical descriptions, were they iconic or textual. A final step is taken, when the study questions the possibility of an application of the geographical knowledge specific to the protestant milieux of the Holy Empire. Two case studies are proposed which concern the description of the Germania - the Empire and its territories - and the conception ot the Geographia sacra - maps and textual descriptions of the coutries and the peoples spoken of in the Bible
Mudrak, Marc. "Neuer alter Glaube : die Entwicklung altgläubiger Zugehörigkeiten und Distinktionen im Alten Reich und Frankreich während der frühen Reformation." Paris, EHESS, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015EHES0056.
Full textThis study relates in a comparative perspective the cultural and social construction of catholic identities in Germany and France at the beginning of the protestant Reformation, between 1517 and 1540. The purpose is not to write a "total" religious history, but to examine significant events, practices and representations. The analysis focuses on the moments of conflict, controversy and difference on material artefacts, rituals and representations in five cities and regions: eastern Bavaria with Passau and Regensburg, Ulm, eastern Westphalia, Paris and Rouen. The study is based on sources of different types. Vernacular pamphlets, for instance, are an important factor fo the construction of catholic conscience to be particular not only on a local scale. Unpublished sources such as administrative and legal documents, petitions or records of visitations represent a major part of the corpus. This study suggests the existence of distinctive, active and adapted catholic cultures, even at the beginning of the protestant Reformation. What exactly transforms a Christian into a catholic differs in space and time. The identities which result from this process ar< comparable by their intensity and explicit character to the protestant self-consciousness. However the distinctions and identities are often restrained with regard to their range and duration

Full textThis work deals with the space of the city of Erfurt in the date middle ages. Space is understood as a social construction of groups, here merely the city council, and people. The concrete dimension of space as well as representations of it are subjects of the analyse, in order to define the identity of Erfurt and understand its place at the local and regional levees as well as in the empire. The conditions of the production of space, the ways in which its produced and its forms are also indications of the urban social complexity and dynamism

Full textIn 1769, Prince Xavier of Saxony, King of Poland's son, decided to settle inFrance, a country in which he remained until the revolution that pushed him to emigrate. This is theonly case in the second half of the eighteenth century of a German prince coming to settle inFrance. In 1770, Prince Xavier, known as Count of Lusatia, chose to buy lands and castles in thekingdom. At the same time, social and political need, the purchase of a castle in France fits in thestrategy of the man of court. In this kingdom, he is confronted with the political and social problemsrelated to his position as a prince of the Wettin family. In his castle, he does not offer a vastpromotion of him, but he works, although under incognito, not to forget his ancestries. In 1791, theprince owns two castles, Chaumot and Pont-sur-Seine and a house in Paris overlooking theChamps-Elysées. The castle of Pont-sur-Seine which, from 1775, became his "ordinary residence",must represent the status of its owner, and have all the amenities in fashion. In our thesis, we havetried to answer the following questions: this high ascendent (son of king and elector) and his socialposition (Prince Royal of Poland and Duke of Saxony) find themselves in the residencies of PrinceXavier? Is there a difference in representation between his residence in Saxony and that of France?Can the prince combine nobility, convenience and low cost in his residences?

Full textThe notion of religious war emerged for the first time at the end of the 16th century. The use of this term increased immensely during the time of the Thirty Years’ War via printed media. Yet, a widespread discussion of the phenomenon only started towards the end of the 17th century. War of religion became a constant political keyword. The idea gained its historiographical importance through its usage in the actual political debate. The aim of this research is to question the development of the concept of religious war, the underlying perception of history and the labelling of an era with this term. The thesis will confine itself to three territories where in the late 17th and early 18th century examples of confessional conflicts were intertwined with the debate on religious wars: France, England and the Holy Roman Empire. The scope of the study is, nevertheless, widened to the European arena by examining the decisive influence the last wars of Louis XIV had on the perception of religious wars. In fact, both the Nine Years’ War and the War of the Spanish Succession were perceived by contemporaries as wars of religion. The printed propaganda of Louis XIV as well as that of his allied enemies contributed largely to this perception by legitimising their respective politics. Thus, France and the wars of Louis XIV had a shaping role of the discussion on religious wars. In sum, the connection of confessional conflicts, international politics and the personality of the French king led to the Europeanisation of the debate on religious war
Merlani, Giulio. "Francesco Buonvisi, un nunzio apostolico alla corte di Leopoldo I." Thesis, Normandie, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020NORMC002.
Full textThe thesis analyzes the diplomatic-political activity carried out by the nuncio Francesco Buonvisi at the court of Leopold I of Habsburg.The main political events of the European scenario in the years 1672-1678 were studied through the study of the correspondence exchanged between the nuncio and Rome. In particular, the work done by Buonvisi in the realization of the pontifical projects was highlighted: stipulation of peace between the European powers and creation of an alliance against the Turks. For this reason, the path taken by the pontifical diplomacy for the preparation of the congress of Nijmegen was considered and much attention was paid to the election of Innocent XI. The pope, in fact, brought about a change of course in pontifical politics at a time when Rome did not have the ability to really influence other European courts. This inability emerged from the study of the vain efforts made by the nuncio Buonvisi. Despite the limited success achieved by Francesco Buonvisi, his contribution has proved to be fundamental for the papal court and for the few but significant results obtained in favor of the Holy See
May, Niels. "Cérémonial et statut : l’impact des négociations westphaliennes sur l’évolution du cérémonial diplomatique." Thesis, Paris 4, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA040225.
Full textThis dissertation analyses the role of the westphalian negotiations (1643-1648) in the development of the diplomatic ceremonial in the 17th century through the examination of correspondence between diplomatic representatives and their princes. In order to better appreciate the importance of the different conflicts and their inherent logic, the study focuses on the actor’s perspective. Methodologically, the concepts utilized for understanding and describing the historical phenomenon « ceremonial » are critically analysed with respect to their implications and limits. This research suggests that an analysis solely based on the representative role of the diplomats would neglect important aspects given that the demonstration of rank is not the only motive in ceremonial conflicts. As such, the diplomats studied provoked many altercations not to confirm their prince’s status, but rather first and foremost to define and cement their own. Thus, the ceremonial of the westphalian negotiations blends the statuses of representative and represented. Furthermore, as the meanings of the signs used in the context of the ceremonial were not commonly defined, the various actors are able to interpret the events differently. In the course of the 17th century however, the ceremonial significations become more and more fixed and unified, which in turn leads to a multiplication of conflicts. This process lead to a situation where the function of the ceremonial was no longer to reveal the specific hierarchy among prince, but rather to display their adhesion to a group of Sovereigns
Garcia, Requena Raquel. "La lengua francesa en la administración vaticana del siglo XVI : Cartas de Andrés de Castillo a la familia Granvela." Caen, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014CAEN1031.
Full textFrom Antonio Perrenot de Granvela's unpublished collection of letters kept in the National Library of Spain, a hundred of letters have been edited, written in French, for the prothonotary Andrés de Castillo. The letters comprise the period between 1537 and 1544 and deal with the matters relative to the administrative and juridical questions of the family Granvela before the Holy See. The letters belong to the codices: 7906 and 20210 of the National Library of Spain with headquarters in Madrid. Andrés de Castillo, of whom we do not know the biographical information, was under the service of the family Granvela and managed for all his members the matters relative to the benefits and the ecclesiastic titles. The letters, always from the hand of Castillo, are addressed to Nicolás Perrenot de Granvela and Antonio Perrenot de Granvela. He initiates the correspondence while Antonio was a student in Padua. At the death of the bishop of Arras and, following Maria's suggestion of Hungary, the young person Antonio is nominated the bishop of Arras. In the correspondence we will have the occasion to know the structure and organization of the Vatican administration, of the people in charge, of the different rates, of the conflicts and obstacles, of the disagreements and also of the procedure established for the achievement of the benefits. In this respect it allows not only obtain previous information first hand, unknown until today, of the Vatican protocols, but also of the not official practices, as gifts, gratefulnesses and gratuities. It discovers also the agreement of alliances between the members of the administration and of the mechanisms to avoid the pronouncements, which sometimes forces to the intervention of more high instances. The uninterrupted exchange of missives for almost ten years allows us to confirm the repetitiveness of the practices and the complete reconstruction of the process of some dossiers. The published correspondance shows the French language of the first half of the 16th century used by a Spaniard, Andrés de Castillo. The letters that we present mention some of the most relevant historical events of his epoch. The years in which the missives take place and that we edit, are troubled years in the Empire of Charles V. The emperor quarrelled with three big imperial rivals: the Turks, the Frenchmen and the Protestants, as it is reflected in this correspondence. The thesis presents the edition of the texts, a study of the administrative lexicon and juridical specific of the texts, an introduction to the documents and the context of the cited facts. The edition is accompanied by a device of historical notes, of an index of names, of an index and maps of places, which facilitates the task of the consultation and of the location of the places mentioned in the missives, of an index of published letters and an index of mentioned letters that are a contribution to identify the documents that we do not know yet, but that we expect to find some day. Finally, the bibliography completes the task that we had proposed ourselves on having studied this correspondence in all its features and following philologic, linguistic criteria and for civilizations
Neverova, Natalia. "Le monde des diplomates européens à Prague et à Strasbourg (années 1590 - années 1610)." Thesis, Limoges, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015LIMO0096.
Full textAt the end of the 16th century the diplomatic service is changing to be more structured and professional and it is witnessing an increasing number of resident ambassadors. The standards and regulations of this service originate from its practical application, but also are due to the theoretical speculations of the century. Though the reality of it is still quite far from its ideal introduced by the works poring over this subject. Turning to the case study of Prague this research attempts to explore that special zone of a shared existence where the encounters among the diplomatic agents from different states take place. Our analysis focuses on the actions of the ambassadors during their missions and aims to uncover the similarities in their duties as well as to define the strategies and instruments used to achieve their goals. A few selected examples enable us to examine some features and qualities that are common among the ambassadors and to determine if they could be perceived as the key factors defining the diplomatic trade. Given the multicultural character of Prague as a capital it is the case of Strasbourg that allows us to introduce the notion of « small » diplomacy, the one that attracts less attention than the affairs that are dealt with in the capital of the Holy Roman Empire and to better define the roles of the ambassadors who are involved
Martin, Nicolas. "De la Chambre de commerce de La Rochelle aux bureaux de Versailles, les relations commerciales entre droit romain et Europe du Nord au XVIIIe siècle : la voile rochelaise dans l'ombre de la Hanse." Thesis, La Rochelle, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013LAROD035.
Full textCreated in 1719 to launch a new representation of the "trade” sphere within the general population, the La Rochelle Chamber of Commerce, the central point of a complex institutional organization, participates actively in the political and economic life of the kingdom. In spite of the organic rivalry which weakens it, this ninth Chamber succeeds finally in becoming the privileged representative of the trader and its most fervent supporter. As the middleman between the wheels of power and the trading companies, it becomes not only the mainstay of popular trade, but also its recorder, by collecting numerous items of correspondence and papers relating to trade. In a policy of both participation and dispute, its defense of local interests within the vast national interest is especially to be found in business relations with Northern Europe. Admittedly, the main trade concerns are elsewhere, as this maritime circuit could never compete in importance with colonial traffic and the slave trade. For all that, the Rochelais traders do not intend to give up - which is shown in the route to the North: colonial commodities and French products, strongly desired by the North, but transported almost exclusively under a foreign flag. Famous for being "big debaters and memory makers", the Rochelais do not fail to analyze the root causes of the direct business crisis between Northern Europe and the kingdom. They denounce not only the almost hegemonic control that both the English and the Dutch have over these trade routes, but also the measures adopted by the Versailles offices which they consider too timid. This reality, explained until then, by economic, political and cultural considerations, looks completely different if we consider the legal rule. Analyzed on several levels and in several dimensions, the latter reveals an obvious disparity of treatment between French and foreign traders. Diplomatic agreements, international treaties, customs legislation, institutional framework, all the components of legal rule, play an important role in the functioning of this maritime circuit. However, the correlation between legal rule and trade with the North could not be explained merely by the observance of trade exchanges with the port of La Rochelle. The northern institutional and customs models must also be examined. And yet these models confirm that the specificity of legal rule in some Northern States constitutes a determining element of this maritime chart. Furthermore, the careful analysis of one of the oldest monuments of medieval maritime law, at the origin of the Hanseatic league, leads to a singular discovery: this text, known by the name of "Lois de Visby" shows clearly, in the cradle of Northern Europe, a very clear Roman influence
Lefebvre, Armelle. "L'Allemagne dans les discours et la philosophie politiques français du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle." Paris 8, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA083697.
Full textAlthough it is usually restricted to quoting a few passages from Jean Bodin, traditionally, historiography boasts of a whole French germanistic, which was elaborated in the 16-18th centuries, in French discourse and political philosophy, in order to expose to the French eye the "monster" the Empire may have been. This work introduces a different interpretation of the French representation of modern Germany. This interpretation will focus on modern theory and political language. We will most of all clearly show the central importance of comparative reflexion and political discourse. We started from an historiographical enigma: Germany's lost image of the 18th century. The study of Germany's theoretical dimension -systematical and programmatical at a time- and its value for political theories of the 18th century has revealed criticism of the hegemonical model of French thinking about Germany's European representation at the end of the 18th century. It is thus also to be seen as criticism of a background. Answering this question meant exploring the even nowadays great mystery of the political library, which constitutes the first French germanistic. The methodology we used combines criteria of discourse analysis (with syntax-semantics and the conditions of enunciation) and of methods applied in the history of concepts, a questionnaire limited to the political vocabulary, exploration of the onomasiologic and semasiologic fields of the concepts in question (with the support of data bank). This approach and the applied methodology lead to the constitution of a series of conceptual landscapes and historical schedules. Within this framework there was room for manoeuvre for France's image of Germany. This restored the semantic values that used to be its own to the French impression of Germany and it also gives a perspective on the modern project and political experience

Full textConcepts of the past are most important parts in the formation of individual and collective identity. Medieval authors deliberately used the historical narratives as a means of enhancing the cohesion of respective social groups, usually the ruling strata of society. The doctoral thesis focuses on re-interpretations and exploitations of the past in France and Bohemia during the 14th century, on the role of historical narratives in the self-representation of the ruling dynasties Luxembourg and Valois, and on the perception of their own role in the history. Main question of the thesis is the social and literary context of the shaping of an imagination of the past: detailed comparison between the Latin and vernacular historiographical production at the royal courts in France and Bohemia bring also crucial observations as to the ways and means of cultural transfer between the respective centres of power

Full textFor the first time in the field, this dissertation explores,systematiccaly and praxeologically by way of qualitative: analysis, the treatment of Jews by and their agency within Christian authoritarian criminal jurisdiction at the turn of the 19th century. The study looks at the criminalization of Jews within penal and regulatory law (Policeyrecht) as well as within specific legislation pertaining to Jews and judicial praxi between 1780 und 1814. Due to a decreased body of source material after 1806 and due to the fact that shift between 1780 and 1814 are particularly visible within agent's discursive negotiation processes, I drew on microanalyses of selected cases in order to trace the ambivalent status of Jews in penal and regulatory law (Policeyrecht) within judiciary praxis. Drawing on quantitative analyses and qualitatively analyzed case studies I contextualize these cases. The project focuses on the two following areas of conflict: "Jewish maleness(es), honour, and violence" and "gender, menial relations and Jewish households", and illuminate them with the aid of microanalyses. Analyzing six case studies I elaborate on how Jewish women and men came before, or went to court, how they acted there, and along which lines lawyers and judges made their cases and assessed penalties. In so doing, I exhibit the interplay between penal law, juridical factors and their respective offender's actions and social status, particularly their being Jewish, and the impact this had on their treatment and agency in court

Full textAlthough the commercial organisation known as the Hanse did not emerge until the second half of the 14th century, merchants from the Holy Roman Empire did not wait until then to join forces on the various marketplaces they frequented in Northern Europe. On the contrary, some of their associations could already be found in England and in the Baltic Rim at the end of the 12th century. Over time, such groupings developed into more complex organisations. Their political influence increased as they came to represent the commercial interests of all Low German cities, whereas the reference to “the common merchant’s profit” spread within them and paved the way to lasting cooperation. This study seeks to shed light on the political motives of solidarity between German merchants and cities, with particular attention to the discourses produced about it and their normative value. Its aim is to turn around the constitutionalist perspective which has characterised legal studies on the Hanse for a long time, and to highlight the legal mechanisms by which the political experiences of the 13th and early 14th centuries were able to produce an inter-municipal decision-making regime, abiding by specific rules and by its own system of principles and values. After having presented the main steps and chronological milestones in the genesis of the Hanse, this work considers the foundations of the Hanseatic community and finally the way in which some of its actors, in particular the city of Lubeck, were able to turn a political and economic cooperation into a legal principle

Several chronicles, semi-public semi-private, show the community of interest between the city and its elites. Among them, the rohrbachs memories, written by bernhard and his son job between 1478 and 1502. This autobiographical production relates the personal history of seven generations and the urban history over a period of 150 years. This study will show the variety of relations between family organization, patrician influence and community destiny. But these writings do not only value the glory of the city but also describe a large family surrounded and supported, for each generation, by social and economical, matrimonial and patrimonial relationships. Finallty, the research also observes a cultural identity which gives an example of the religious and intellectual tradition and changes in the urban society of the late middle ages
