| Abstract | This session presents new codicological and prosopographical research on questions concerning Alemannia and Rhetia from the 7th to the 10th century. Based on a special study on the monastic development of Gallus Max Schär will offer new perspectives on monastic history in Alemannia during the 7th century. Uwe Ludwig, who is preparing a critical edition of the St Gall Confraternity Books of the 9th century will suggest new codicological and prosopograhical results. Combining codicological, paleographical and prosopographical analysis Walter Kettemann and Jens Lieven will present the Liber Vitae Fabariensis as a liturgical Geschichtsbuch of the bishopric of Chur and the monastery of Pfäfers. |
