Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the events and political intrigue surrounding the pivotal 1257 dual election of the Holy Roman Emperor. Following the death of Emperor Frederick II, the German Empire fell into chaos and disarray, with no clear successor in sight. Amidst this turmoil, two foreign candidates emerged, each vying for the imperial crown: Richard, Earl of Cornwall, and Alfonso X of Castile. Through meticulous research and analysis of primary sources, the author delves into the complex motivations and strategies of the electoral princes who held the power to choose the next Emperor. The book not only chronicles the events leading up to the election but also examines the broader historical context, including the decline of imperial authority and the rise of territorial powers within Germany. The author uncovers the interplay of domestic German politics with the influence of external powers, such as the papacy and the Kingdom of England, in shaping the outcome of the election. This dual election stands as a turning point in German history, and this book offers valuable insights into the forces that shaped its course and the consequences that followed.
