Detmar (master reader)
Detmar , also Detmar von Lübeck († around / after 1395 ) was a Franciscan reading master at the Katharinenkloster Lübeck and a chronicler of the 14th century.
Life
A Detmar can be proven at the Katharinenkloster for the period from 1368 to 1380 as a lecturer and until 1394 as a member of the convent . Presumably this Detmar received after the bone-hewn uprisings of the year 1384 in Lübeck in the year 1385 the order to update the ratschronik of the Hanseatic city , which at that time only continued until the plague of the year 1350 . He worked on the period from 1105 to 1395, thus also including the 12th century period , which Arnold von Lübeck was one of the first Lübeck chroniclers to work on. This chronicle was then continued until 1482 by various chroniclers who remained anonymous, who are probably also attributable to the St. Catherine's Monastery or who could also come from among the council secretaries. The chronicle, written from the point of view of the Lübeck City Council, is one of the most important historical sources of Lübeck in the Middle Ages, alongside the chronicle of Hermann Korner .
