13세기 후반 ‘독일인’의 주데텐란트 이주사 연구: 브로우모프(Broumov) 이주 특허장 분석

초록

The privileges granted by Břevnov abbots are supposed to be important sources for assessing the deliberate immigration policies of the host country, Broumov. The privileges, which guaranteed various autonomous rights and economic immunity, defined the rights and obligations between abbots and ‘German’ immigrants. The fact that immigrants were issued privileges suggests that the purpose of German immigration was to facilitate effective administration of the monastic territories. As revealed in the uprising of the year 1300, German immigrants forged a new collective identity over time. Legal aspects especially, such as written feudal contracts, property rights, and community autonomy, inspired them to develop topophilia, a strong sense of a particular place. Furthermore, a series of border villages grew up as a contact zone, which strengthened the Slav-German relationship in Bohemia. The historiography of medieval migration has long been dominated by national narratives. This paper offers a new approach to the migration problem between Sudetenland and Germany in the Middle Ages that goes beyond a traditional dichotomy between conquest and subjugation. The history of immigration into Eastern Europe no longer needs to find its motives in the national purposes of medieval Germany.
