28.04.–29.04.2022, Universität Trier
Die Grenzregion zwischen dem Königreich Frankreich und dem Heiligen Römischen Reich war im Hoch- und Spätmittelalter ein nicht nur in territorialpolitischer, sondern auch in wirtschaftlicher, religiöser und sozialer Hinsicht dynamischer Raum, dessen geschichtswissenschaftliche Erforschung immer auch ein grenzübergreifendes Arbeiten erfordert. Ziel der Tagung ist es, einschlägig forschenden Mediävistinnen und Mediävisten auf frühen Stufen ihrer Karriere die Möglichkeit zu geben, ihre Forschungsprojekte an der zentral im Einzugsgebiet der Großregion gelegenen Universität Trier vorzustellen und zur Diskussion zu bringen, sowie im Länder- und Sprachgrenzen übergreifenden Austausch neue Kontakte zu knüpfen.
