This collection features contributions from a conference organized by the Historical Association for Swabia in Irsee, November 2007. It includes various studies on early modern political theory in Bavarian Swabia, territorial conflicts and resolutions in the 16th century, and the role of spiritual estates in the Germania Sacra. The volume examines France's influence on Swabia, the international relations of the Carthusian Order in the Middle Ages, and the complexities between the Swabian province of the Pauline Order and its leadership in Hungary. It also discusses the historical context of St. Ulrich in the Regensburg diocese, the rivalry between Wittelsbach-Bavaria and Habsburg-Austria over the Augsburg bishopric in 1740, and the personal crossing of boundaries by Bishop Josef of Augsburg. Additional topics include the cultural interplay between Augsburg and Munich, the Augsburg pastor Samuel Urlsperger's role in the Georgia settlement project, and the impact of Maximilian I and Albrecht IV on relations with the Turks. The collection further explores the historical connections between southern Germans and Paris, the role of southern imperial cities as information hubs, and the educational reforms by humanists in the region. It concludes with analyses of Augsburg's newspaper's perception by European powers and the significance of Swabia in Habsburg imperial politics.
