Conference: Private Charters and Documentary Practice in the long 10th century, Rome, 18-20 April 2018

Atti privati e pratiche documentarie nel lungo X secolo / Private Charters and Documentary Practice in the long 10th century (ca.870-ca.1030), conference Rome 18-20 April 2018

On the occasion of the publication of the twelfth and final volume of the edition of the ninth century St.-Gall charters, the University of Groningen, the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna and the Stiftsarchiv St. Gall are organizing a conference on the changes of documentary practice in the long tenth century in Europe. This conference is a follow-up to an earlier one (Die Privaturkunden der Karolingerzeit) on the continuation and spread of the Roman heritage of documentary-legal administration, taking into account, among other things, the standardizing tendencies of the Carolingian empire. This time we will be dealing with what happened when the different parts of the Carolingian empire started to diverge after 870.
