The project aims at compiling and publishing all Latin and German
inscriptions of the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period until
1650. Geographically, the collection currently covers Germany and
Austria as well as South Tyrol. The findings are published in the
DI volumes. Each volume comprises the inscriptions from one or
several urban or rural districts or from a single city, issuing
even smaller complexes separately in cities with particularly large
numbers of inscriptions. The series includes both preserved
original inscriptions and those which survive only as copies. Die
Deutschen Inschriften is by far the oldest current project aiming
at the compilation of medieval and early modern inscriptions. It
was founded over 75 years ago as a joint project of the German and
Austrian Academies of Sciences and Humanities on the initiative of
the Germanist Friedrich Panzer (Heidelberg) with substantial
cooperation from the historians Karl Brandi (Gottingen) and Hans
Hirsch (Vienna).
