| Abstract | Religious networks can take different shapes and forms, whether it be in terms of geographical or temporal dissemination, different ecclesiastical spheres, or in terms of the application of a more abstract analytical approach. The session exemplifies those dimensions. The first paper analyses the practice and dissemination of papal-delegated jurisdiction with digital humanities methods. It is exemplified on diplomatic mass corpora of the Iberian Peninsula of the 12th century. The second paper deals with canonisation processes. Using selected examples, the focus lies on individual interest, and support groups in Upper Germany on the basis of medieval charters. The third paper discusses an obituary roll of St. Peter's monastery in Salzburg from 1518, which gives insight into this monasteries' relations within Upper Germany. The last paper is about the confraternity book of the cathedral chapter of Gurk (Carinthia), which illustrates the networks of 26 religious orders with which the canons were in prayer. |
