OverviewThis study offers a new view on the development of an urban culture of writing in one of the major cities of late medieval Europe. Via the examination of a tremendous number of documents from the Augsburg city archive it shows how civic authorities started to rely more and more on written records, which in turn created the need for archiving. The power of this process primarily resulted from a growing desire for supervision and control. Die Studie eroffnet einen neuen Blick auf den Entstehungsprozess kommunaler Schriftkultur in einer europaischen Grossstadt des Spatmittelalters. Die Auswertung der umfangreichen Uberlieferung im Stadtarchiv Augsburg zeigt, wie stadtische Autoritaten zunehmend auf Schriftlichkeit angewiesen waren und dabei eigene Bedurfnisse der Archivierung auspragten. Als zentrale Antriebskraft der Verschriftlichung tritt dabei ein wachsendes Bedurfnis nach Kontrolle und Uberprufbarkeit hervor.
