Abstract

Universal Chronicles, written to narrate the history of all humanity in detail, flourished all around Europe, especially from the twelfth century onwards. This article studies Universal Chronicles composed around the Holy Roman Empire by authors closely related to Hohenstaufen emperors and candidates. Four chronicles will be considered, focusing on their front matters, dedications and prologues: Otto of Freising’s Historia sive Chronica duabus civitatibus, Godfrey of Viterbo’s Pantheon, Rudolf of Ems’ Weltchronik and Alfonso X’s General Estoria. The choice of this particular corpus is due to the authors’ interpretation of the Emperor’s sacred duty in history, as well as the Hohenstaufen’s role in imperial development. The choice of texts also reflects a linguistic diversity—Latin, Middle High German and Castilian—that may help to consider how the use of different languages manifested different perspectives on imperial aspirations, or throughout the Holy Roman Empire.
