Die Bistümer der Kirchenprovinz Mainz: Das exemte Bistum Bamberg 3: Die Bischofsreihe von 1522 bis 1693

This study now presents the early modern episcopal biographies from the diocese of Bamberg, over fifty years after the publication of the corresponding medieval series, and for the first time in the series Germania Sacra . In a first volume, the author describes the bishops from 1522 to 1693. Intensive research in the archives has produced an important contribution to the understanding of the early modern Imperial Church, in which Bamberg played a significant role. Keeping to the proven format of Germania Sacra , the book comprises the following sections: Sources and literature review; bases of the episcopal office in its position between Pope, Emperor and Empire; biographies of the individual bishops from Weigand von Redwitz (1522-1556) to Marquard Sebastian Schenk von Stauffenberg (1683-1693). It closes with a study of the most important figures in the central administration (Suffragan Bishops, Vicars-General, treasury officials, chancellors). The author is at present working on the continuation volume up to secularisation.
