Since the 11th century, there existed contacts between the territory of Ostarrichi and Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire at the Bosporus. These relations were intensified during the period of the Crusades, especially because of the participation of members of the house of Babenberg in these endeavours in the Eastern Mediterranean. Two Babenberg dukes, Henry II Jasomirgott (in 1148) and Leopold VI (in 1203), even married princesses from the imperial houses of Byzantium and became important intermediators between West and East. These events also left their marks in the Greek and Armenian historiography of the time, where we encounter the first references to “Austria”. Besides warfare and diplomacy, also elements of artistic style and stories found their way from the “Orient” to the Danube; yet, one still has to notice the persistent tradition of legends (such as the origin of the popular song “Eia poppeia” in Byzantium) even in scholarly literature. These well-known stories do not have any basis in our sources, which on the contrary allow us to draft a more realistic and at the same time not less fascinating pictures of the relations between Ostarrichi and the Bosporus.

""""The so-called O’Donohue group of Irish saints’ Lives has been
defined and tentatively dated to circa 800 by Richard Sharpe in
1991. Sharpe’s dating was based mainly on linguistic features
and on the reconstruction of editorial work of medieval
collectors and scribes of the manuscripts that are still extant.
However, there is no scholarly consensus regarding the proposed
date. This thesis offers a detailed discussion of a number of
datable features that may be found in some of the O’Donohue
Lives. The Lives subjected to scrutiny are: the Life of Ailbe of
Emly, the Life of Ruadán of Lorrha, the Life of Áed mac Bricc,
the Life of Munnu of Taghmon and the Life of Colmán Elo. The
contents of these texts have been verified against the
information preserved in other Irish medieval sources: annals,
genealogies, martyrologies and other saints’ Lives that have
been assigned tentative or secure dates.""""

""Development of the Trogir’s fraternity of the Holy Spirit depended on several elements: a common emergence of such fraternities in Europe, social and political position of commoners in Trogir during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, as well as the maintenance of city’s hospital which probably was under the influence of hospitaler’s order of Santo Spirito. It is important to stress that the period of the fraternity
emergence (together with the city’s hospital) conveys with the urban growth of Trogir. Members of the fraternity came from various social groups but leadership
was always under the influence of the rich citizens. The importance of this fraternity was such that during the rule of Louis the Great this was the only fraternity in Trogir
that was not abolished in 1365. During the fifteenth century this fraternity was leading, so called, commoners council, which was a kind of opponent to the city’s council
of noblemen. Investigation of the fraternity’s statute (matrikula) revealed that fraternity of the Holy Spirit owned a significant amount of mobile and immobile
property. The chief income was coming from the gifts, mostly from testaments. Because
of this wealth the fraternity was economically independent and often communal turbulences did not affect it. In 1442 all the property of the fraternity was evaluated
and listed: the fraternity possessed 60 possessions in the city’s district, several houses within the city walls among which some were rented. With these incomes
fraternity financed maintenance of the hospital. All the possessions of the fraternity were supervised by fraternity’s župan (headmaster). The extent documents reveal
dynamics of the fraternity’s business, rents and loans. The fraternity’s statue contains approximately 470 names of fraternity members over the period of 160 years
(1429-1589). Some of the fraternity members were prominent citizens, holding a significant property in the city and performing various important offices. Therefore,
the fraternity of the Holy Spirit in Trogir represented an important political, social and economic institution that significantly influenced culture of medieval and early
modern Trogir.""

"Based on an earlier study on the exchange of pieces of property („feuda“) between noble families of Venetian and Greek background in the region of Chania in Western Crete between 1314 and 1396, I executed a further analysis of the spatial relations between localities due to the presence of properties of the same families during this period (cf. J. Preiser-Kapeller, Visualising Communities. Möglichkeiten der Netzwerkanalyse und der relationalen Soziologie für die Erfassung und Analyse mittelalterlicher Gemeinschaften. Working Paper for a presentation for the SFB "Visions of Community", 2012; online: http://oeaw.academia.edu/JohannesPreiserKapeller/Papers)
Data from: Charalampos Gasparis, Catasticum Chanee, 1314-1396 (Catastici Feudorum Crete). Athens 2008.
From the 155 localities mentioned in the documents edited by Gasparis, I selected a sample of 76 localities, for which Gasparis indicated there exact position; for this localities I determined the geographical data.
I created a network of localities; two localities are connected if there is documentation for at least one noble family possessing feuda in both during the period 1314-1396. The strength of links is scaled according to the number of families having property in both localities.
On this basis I calculated the total strength of connections of each locality (degree values).
Furthermore, I determined the geographical distance between connected localities and compared it with the strength of connections between them.
I visualised the various results of the analysis on a map of the area in order to illustrate the spatial distribution of noble property and the spatial connections between regions due to noble property.
A further analysis also for different time slices during the period 1314-1396 is in preparation.
All graphs and maps were created by the author with the help of the software tools ORA*, Pajek*, QuantumGIS* and PAST*.
