In diesen und {\"a}hnlichen Worten erinnern mittelalterliche Geschichtsschreiber stets an das versp{\"u}rte Eintreten von Erdbeben. F{\"u}r die ereignisgeschichtliche Rekonstruktion der historischen Seismizit{\"a}t besitzt das Verst{\"a}ndnis, dieser seit dem Fr{\"u}hmittelalter zunehmend standardisiert gebrauchten Narrativen, einen hohen Wert. Daher ist es wichtig, mit den bislang nahezu unerkannt geblieben Intentionen, Vorstellungsstrukturen und Argumentationsstrategien fr{\"u}h- und hochmittelalterlicher Geschichtsschreiber bekannt zu werden. Ausgehend von den antiken Urspr{\"u}ngen ermittelt diese Arbeit die Bandbreite einer auf "terrae motus" aufbauenden, spezifisch mittelalterlichen Traditionsbildung und setzt sie in den Kontext zum Wissens- und Erfahrungshorizont fr{\"u}h- und hochmittelalterlicher Gelehrter. Erdbeben besaßen ein außerordentliches hermeneutisches Potential f{\"u}r das mittelalterliche Weltverst{\"a}ndnis. Somit sind mittelalterliche Erdbebenbeschreibungen hinsichtlich ihrer deskriptiven Qualit{\"a}t und argumentativen Wertigkeit verschieden. Die Historiographie- und Ideengeschichte sowie die seismologische Parametrisierung von mittelalterlichen Erdbeben wird von diesem Wissen gleichermaßen profitieren.}, subject = {Deutschland}, language = {de} } @misc{Kim2020, type = {Master Thesis}, author = {Kim, Taeyeong}, title = {The involvement of the two German states in Korea during the 1950s in the context of the Cold War}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-48731}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-487315}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {100}, year = {2020}, abstract = {This master thesis will analyze the background of the involvement of the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the German Democratic Republic (GDR) in Korea during the 1950s in the context of the Cold War. In both Korean states, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) as well as the Republic of Korea (ROK), the so-called humanitarian aid that was provided to them in the form of medical and economic assistance to help surmount the hardship of the postwar period is remembered with great appreciation to this day. However, critical views on the German engagement in Korea are still relatively hard to find. In this paper, two exemplary cases will be studied: the GDR's city reconstruction project in the North Korean cities of Hamheung and Heungnam and the FRG's medical assistance to the ROK by means of the West German Red Cross Hospital in Busan. By looking at primary sources like governmental documents, this thesis will examine the geopolitical conditions and particular national interests that stood behind the German development and humanitarian aid for the Korean states at that time, thus shedding light on the political goals the two German states pursued, and the benefit they expected to derive from their engagement in Korea.
