Further projects

Managing Maximilian (1493-1519). Persona, Politics, and Personnel through the Lens of Digital Prosopography
By using a prosopographical approach, ManMAX intends to show that power, politics, and their staging, can only be interpreted through a profound investigation of personal relations and interactions. Inspired by a cultural history of politics and New Institutionalism, it aims at a new assessment of Maximilian’s reign by backing a qualitative interpretation with a large-scale dataset. Guided by an interdisciplinary perspective, ManMAX will raise our knowledge of this emperor’s rule to a new scale and increase our broader understanding of rule as a process of negotiation between a multitude of agents.
In the news blog, participating scholars provide insights into the project's research in blog entries, among other things.
A short PowerPoint presentation with voiceover on the objectives of the project can be found here.
