The "Maximilian-Regesten" - i.e. historical abstracts of documents, records, letters etc. relating to the reign of Maximilian I. (1493-1519) - as the Regesta Imperii in general are fundamental research on all sorts of documents relating to the history of the Holy Roman Empire, Austria and Europe. Based on approximately 40000 documents collected in all larger archives of Austria, Germany an Europe since the last 50 years, the single volumes of "Ausgewählte Regesten des Kaiserreiches unter Maximilian I. 1493-1519" draw up the essential features of the Austrian, German an European history during the reign of Maximilian I. In that way the first four volumes of "J.F. Böhmer (Begr.): Ausgewählte Regesten des Kaiserreichs unter Maximilian I. 1493-1519", edited by Hermann Wiesflecker Wien - Köln - Weimar 1990-2002, are already published. The edition is done by following the modern methods an directions of writing historical abstracts within the Regesta Imperii. Each abstract gives the date an the essential content of each document followed by a citical apparatus (description of the source and its archival location, bibliographical references, notes etc.) Our four already edited volumes of "J.F. Böhmer (Begr.), Regesta Imperii XIV: Ausgewählte Regesten des Kaiserreiches unter Maximilian I. 1493-1519" are containing about 22000 abstracts of documents relating to the major internal matters of the Holy Roman Empire as well as to the foreign policy of Maximilian I. and his relations to the Pope, France, Spain, England, Hungary, Poland, Russia, the Ottoman Empire, Venice an all other Italian states. The internal affaires of the Emipre and the Austrian hereditary countrys mostly concern the transformation and reformation of the state towards early modern government, and the foreign policy of Maximilian I. as King of the Romans during this years is dominated by his plans to obtain the crown of the Holy Roman Empire, to organize a crusade against the Turks and to make the so called "Haus Habsburg / Casa d`Austria" a leading European power. All further details are given in the introduction of each volume.
