- Abstract
The anthology "Relic Authentications. Cultural Monuments of the Early Middle Ages" brings together contributions from a conference on relic authentications that took place in Mainz in April 2017, initiated by the Heidelberg Collaborative Research Center 933 "Material Text Cultures". The contributions address the systematic evaluation of relic authentications from various perspectives such as philology, palaeography, praxeology, diplomatics, and collection history. The authors examine, among other things, the historical development of language, the palaeographic analysis for dating manuscripts, the diplomatic-legal significance, and the function of relic authentications in social and communicative processes. The anthology demonstrates the great potential of relic authentications for the study of saint veneration, the history of writing, and everyday language and writing in the Middle Ages.
