| Manuscript summary: | Chronicle of the Bishopric of Constance by Heinrich Murer (1588-1638, member of the Carthusian convent at Ittingen beginning 1614). Heinrich Murer bases his Chronicle upon earlier works, including: the Chronicon of Hermannus Contractus (1013-1054), which was continued by his pupil Berthold von Reichenau through the year 1080 (1500-1577/78) and published in 1547/48; the Chronologia monasteriorum Germaniae praecipuorum by Caspar Bruschius (1518-1557), the Chronik von dem Erzstifte Mainz und dessen Suffraganbistümern (Chronicle of the Archdiocesan Abbey of Mainz and its suffragan bishoprics) by Wilhelm Werner, Graf von Zimmern (1485-1575); the historical work of Christoph Hartmann (1568-1637) of Frauenfeld, who was abbey librarian at Einsiedeln in his later years and who wrote the Annales Heremi Deiparae Matris in Helvetia together with Franz Guillimann. Murer’s Chronicle extends from the origins of what would later be the Diocese of Constance in Windisch in the year 411 under Bishop Paternus through the the year 1629 under Bishop Johannes VII. |
