Die Reihe „Schriften zur Marinegeschichte“ will ein Forum für neue und kontroverse Forschungsergebnisse zu ausgewählten Themenkreisen der Marinegeschichte bieten. Damit öffnet sich diese Reihe einem weiten inhaltlichen Spektrum und dem Interessentenkreis aktiver und ehemaliger Angehöriger der deutschen Seestreitkräfte sowie militär- oder maritim-historisch interessierter Leser. Die Veröffentlichungspalette soll von der Verschriftlichung von Vortragsreihen über wissenschaftliche Qualifikationsarbeiten bis zur Publikation unbekannter oder seltener Dokumente reichen. Ein besonderes Augenmerk möchten die Herausgeber neben Biographien auch auf Publikationen richten, welche sich der kommentierenden Bearbeitung von Selbstzeugnissen widmen. Steht zwar das erzählende Ich im Mittelpunkt und muss gebührend zu Wort kommen, so soll doch eine umfassende Kommentierung den erklärenden Rahmen bieten. Auf diese Weise soll versucht werden, Ereignisse und Strukturen – vielleicht auch nur die Normalität – vergangener Zeiten aus der personalen Perspektive heraus sichtbar zu machen, wissenschaftlich begründet einzufassen und insgesamt für weitergehende Forschungen zu öffnen. Die „Schriften zur Marinegeschichte“ werden vom Freundeskreis des Wehrgeschichtlichen Ausbildungszentrum der Marineschule Mürwik e.V. und der Stiftung Deutsches Marinemuseum gemeinsam herausgegeben. Beide Einrichtungen wollen mit der Schriftenreihe Kenntnis und Verständnis der politischen, militärstrategischen, technischen, sozialen und kulturellen Aspekte deutscher Militär- und Marinegeschichte erweitern und vertiefen.
Die Reihe wird seit 2019 nicht mehr durch uns veröffentlicht.
The series (Hi)Stories is an English publication project that deals with interdisciplinary questions in the field of War Studies.
Its main purpose is to highlight issues relating to war not only from a historical, but especially from a cultural perspective. It therefore focusses on the relationship between war and factors such as geography, gender roles, literature, art etc. Focusing on the papers delivered at a number of international conferences (e.g. War and Geography 2015, War and Rape 2016), the new series is an international forum for the publication of qualitative research works (dissertations or habilitations).
English was chosen as the language of publication in order to secure and reach an international audience and to provide a global network of researchers in the field of War Studies.
Volume 1 of the two-volume set MMed 135: These volumes offer the first critical edition of the Chronique d’Ernoul and the so-called Colbert-Fontainebleau (or Acre) Continuation of William of Tyre in over 150 years. The material is accompanied by an extensive introduction, glossary and bibliography. These two thirteenth-century narratives recount the story of the crusades and the Latin East. Both are anonymous; both employed the French vernacular and both contain accounts that are essential for anyone studying the subject.
The Chronique d’Ernoul was completed in the 1230s in northern France. The main part of the Colbert-Fontainebleau Continuation of William of Tyre dates to the late 1240s and is a reworking of Ernoul with material going up to 1277; it was composed in the Latin East.

Essays in Honour of Erik Kooper
Volume Editors: and
The study of medieval chronicles is firmly established as a focus of research in the whole range of disciplines comprising Medieval Studies: literature, history, art history, linguistics, book history, digital humanities, and so forth. Each article in this volume dedicated to Erik Kooper presents a case study, balancing the particulars of the chosen materials with more generalized conclusions about their significance. The resulting collection is an anthology of different approaches in Medieval Chronicle Studies, presenting a rich overview of the geographical, linguistic, chronological and methodological diversity of chronicle research as it has developed in no small part thanks to Erik’s rallying.

The long-lasting Ottoman Empire was a theatre of armed conflict and human displacement. Whereas military victories in the early modern period enabled its territorial expansion and internal consolidation, the later centuries were shaped by military defeat and domestic turmoil, setting hundreds of thousands, sometimes even millions of people in motion. Spanning from Europe to Asia, the book reassesses these movements. Rather than adopting a teleological approach to the study of the Ottoman defeat, it connects late Ottoman history to wider dynamics, extending or challenging existing concepts and narratives.
