This book examines how genealogical knowledge was produced in Early
Modern Europe. It studies the procedures and difficulties of
genealogical research and highlights the many challenges that had
to be overcome in the process of establishing family histories.
Archives had to be visited, stone inscriptions had to be
deciphered, and countless individuals had to be identified. The
papers demonstrate that none of these tasks were simple and that
the results of the research efforts often remained ambivalent. How
early modern genealogists went about studying these questions is
investigated here in a comparative perspective that includes cases
from Germany, Italy, France, Wales, and beyond.
