Excerpt from Die Münz-und Geldpolitik der Stadt Basel im Mittelalter
Unter Mitbenutzung von Materialien die in früheren Jahren Herr Staatsrat Prof. Dr. Von Schönberg in Tübingen und Herr Dr. August Bernard/z, Direktor der Landesbibliothek in Bern, gesam melt haben, arbeite ich seit mehreren Jahren an einer Darstellung des Basler Stadthaushalts im ausgehenden Mittelal ter. Dieses Werk, dessen erster Band druckfertig vorliegt, soll demnächst mit Unterstützung der Antiquarischen und Historischen Gesellschaft in Basel unter dem Titel; quellen und Studien zur Basler Finanzgeschichte im Mittelalter zu erscheinen beginnen. Das Basler Staatsarchiv enthält neben ungewöhnlich vollzähligen Rech nungsbüchern eine Fülle von Finanzakten, die einen ziemlich klaren Einblick in den öffentlichen Haushalt Basels gestatten und vor allem das komplizierte, früh ausgebildete Steuerwesen vortrefflich beleuchten. Zu bedauern ist nur, dass dieser wertvolle Schatä erst mit dem Jahre 1362 einsetzt, weil der dem Erdbeben von 1356 folgende Brand die alteren Archivalien vernichtet hat. An derseits sind in Deutschland gerade die letzten 150 Jahre des ausgehenden Mittelalters in politischer, wirtschaftlicher und so zialerbeziehung von so hervorragender Bedeutung für die fol gende Entwicklung gewesen, dass eingehende finanzpolitische Untersuchungen über ein zwar kleines aber trotzdem nicht nu wichtiges politisches Gemeinwesen auch das allgemeine Interesse in Anspruch nehmen dürfen.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex interplay between monetary policy and governance in the late Middle Ages. The author examines the history of Basel's mint, tracing its evolution from a royal institution to a municipal one. Against the backdrop of Basel's political and economic development, the book analyzes the strategies employed by bishops and city officials to control the production and circulation of currency. It highlights the importance of the mint as a source of revenue and a tool for shaping economic policy. The author argues that the transition to municipal control of the mint was not simply a matter of power struggles between bishops and city councils. It was also driven by the need to address the challenges posed by a changing economy and the growing importance of trade and commerce. The book sheds light on the complex relationship between monetary policy and economic development in the late Middle Ages, offering valuable insights for understanding the role of money in shaping societies and economies.
