Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

To learn about ten important themes in the Historiography of the Western and Central European Middle Ages (chosen for their relevance to what is actually researched at the EUniversity of Vienna). These include: Theology and Society; Gender and Women´s History; Crusades; the City; the Economy; Ethnicity and Nationalism ...

Assessment and permitted materials

Final exam (involving mainly but not only the writing of an abstract of an article, and replacing it in historiography). Each part is eliminatory. The course is unlikely to be passed without attending concurrently the twinned Lektürekurs taught by Professor Christina Lutter.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Much reading (the only way to be a "Master" in History). This is where students will see whether they are cut out for a MA in Medieval History. This is also where they may decide that truly want to concentrate in Medieval History, and in which area of the field.
The course is unlikely to be passed without attending concurrently the twinned Lektürekurs taught by Professor Christina Lutter.

Examination topics

The readings and the lectures, plus two articles given out either at the exam or the day before.

Reading list

Will be posted on Moodle.
