Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Geschichte Europa - and. L nder - Mittelalter, Fr he Neuzeit, Note: 1,3, FernUniversit t Hagen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung Es war die Gr ndung der Prager Universit t im Jahre 1348, die den Beginn der Universit tsgeschichte in Deutschland und in Mitteleuropa einleitete(1). Deren sp tmittelalterlichen Anf nge und die Gr ndungsurkunden standen recht fr h im Mittelpunkt des Interesses der tschechischen und deutschen Geschichtsforschung, was angesichts des ehrw rdigen Alters der ersten deutschen Universit t und ihrer besonderen Rolle als Vorbild f r die nachfolgenden Lehranstalten im deutschen und europ ischen Bereich kaum zu verwundern vermag. Peter Moraw u ert sich in diesem Zusammenhang: " Dieses Prager Erbe, wie man auch formulieren konnte, war trotz des kurzen Lebens des Studiums, und ungeachtet von anderswo unwiederholten und wiederholbaren Ph nomenen, war bedeutender als jedes andere- j ngere- Erbe in Mitteleuropa vor dem 18 und 19 Jh., ehe G ttingen und Berlin neue Vorbilder f r ein neues Zeitalter wurden. Nur Paris und Bologna, die ltesten, waren noch wichtiger."(2) Bekanntlich geh ren zur Gr ndung der Prager Universit t 3 Gr ndungsdokumente- die Papstbulle vom 26 Januar 1347, und die zwei nachfolgenden k niglichen Schriften(3). Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit m chte ich die von Karl IV verfassten Stiftungsurkunden im Hinblick auf die Intentionen ihres Verfassers untersuchen- den Stiftsbrief vom 07 April 1348 und das, ein Jahr darauf erlassene, Eisenacher Diplom. Denn es f llt auf, dass der Stiftungsakt offensichtlich zweier Dokumente bedurfte, wodurch sich die Frage nach der Bedeutung und der Zielsetzung insbesondere der zweiten Urkunde f rmlich aufdr ngt. Warum hat der K nig es f r n tig befunden, ein weiteres Dokument auszustellen- zur Besiegelung und Erg nzung seines Stiftsaktes oder zur Bekr ftigung seiner Autorit t? Und wenn man die zweite Annahme als plausibel akzeptiert,

One night in December 1800, in the distant mission outpost of San Antonio in northern Mexico, Eulalia Californio and her lover Primo plotted the murder of her abusive husband. While the victim was sleeping, Prio and his brother tied a rope around Juan Californio's neck. One of them sat on his body while the other pulled on the rope and the woman, grabbing her husband by the legs, pulled in the opposite direction. After Juan Californio suffocated, Eulalia ran to the mission and reported that her husband had choked while chewing tobacco. Suspicious, the mission priests reported the crime to the authorities in charge of the nearest presidio. For historians, spousal murders are significant for what they reveal about social and family history, in particular the hidden history of day-to-day gender relations, conflicts, crimes, and punishments. Fatal Love examines this phenomenon in the late colonial Spanish Atlantic, focusing on incidents occurring in New Spain (colonial Mexico), New Granada (colonial Colombia), and Spain from the 1740s to the 1820s. In the more than 200 cases consulted, it considers not only the social features of the murders, but also the legal discourses and judicial practices guiding the historical treatment of spousal murders, helping us understand the historical intersection of domestic violence, private and state/church patriarchy, and the law.
The first work in English to discuss the social and political history of lawyers in a Latin American country, Honorable Lives presents a portrait of lawyers in late colonial and early modern Colombia. Uribe-Uran focuses on the social origins, education, and careers of those qualified to practice law before the highest colonial courts—Audiencias—and the republican courts after the 1820s. In the course of his study, Uribe-Uran answers many questions about this elite group of professionals. What were the social origins and families of lawyers? Their relation to the state? Their participation in political movements and parties, revolutions, civil wars, and other political processes? Their ideas, education, and training? By exploring the lives of lawyers, Uribe-Uran is also able to present a general history of Latin America while examining the key social and political changes and continuities from 1780 to 1850—particularly the elites and state managers.Honorable Lives features three genealogical charts detailing bureaucratic networks established by families of lawyers in different historical periods. The text also contains an abundant series of statistical tables and charts, and concise biographical information on approximately 150 Latin American lawyers. This book will appeal to Latin Americanists, students of law, and anyone interested in the lives and histories of lawyers.
