Clevi Fryger

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Clevi Fryger (* 15th century ; † after 1442) was a Franciscan around 1442 and author of an excerpt from the lost Königsfelden Chronicle .

The name “Clevi Fryger” von Waldshut and the designation Lesemeister can be found at the end of an excerpt from the Königsfeld Chronicle (Chronicon Koenigsfeldense ad a. 1442). The Königsfelder Chronik (Chronicon Koenigsfeldense), created around 1388 , itself is lost. In addition to the Königsfelden Chronicle, Fryger used other sources. The first part of the text, "The Book of the Origin of the Most Serene Princes of Austria " reports in 30 chapters the rise of the House of Habsburg . The second part reports on Queen Agnes of Hungary in 31 chapters . Clevi Fryger added to the chronicle excerpt in the first supplementary chapter a section on the foundation and history of the city of Waldshut , "How long is the Waldshuot the place donated and built", in which the city was founded in 1249 and the brothers Rudolf and Albrecht as builders V. von Habsburg, Canon in Basel and in Strasbourg .

The first print of the Fryger excerpt appeared in the volume "De translatis Habsburgo-Austriacorum principum eorumque cadaveribus ex ecclesia cathedrali Basiliensi et monasterio Koenigsfeldensi in Helvetia ad conditorium novum monasterii St. Blasii in silva nigra", St. Blasien 1772 on the pages published by Martin Gerbert 87 to 113.
