Abstract: Taking a region-specific approach to the analysis of the narration and communication of imperial power in the Middle Ages reveals differences in the development and reception of imperial discourse as well as in the communication tools and the reception of imperial discourse in local contexts. The monographic section of the QFIAB 2025 tackles this complex topic following some guidelines that can be summarized (in a non-exhaustive way) as follows: What were the main arguments and theses of imperial discourse in the central and late Middle Ages? What implications did the dissemination of the imperial narrative have for the drafting of official documents? How was imperial discourse received in different geographical areas? Who were the actors involved in narrating and promoting imperial discourse north and south of the Alps in the late Middle Ages?
