Paul Uiblein (born June 21, 1926 in Vienna ; † October 21, 2003 there ) was an Austrian historian .

Live and act

Uiblein completed his high school education with the matriculation examination in 1945 at the Oberrealschule in Vienna III, Radetzkystraße 2.

From May 1945 Uiblein studied history, geography and art history at the University of Vienna and was awarded a Dr. phil. PhD . In the same year he completed the 45th training course at the Institute for Austrian Historical Research with the state examination. As a scientific term paper , he had presented his study investigations into the Passau diocese chronicle of Thomas Ebendorfer .

After temporary employment as a provisional state librarian at the Austrian National Library (1955) and a scholarship holder at the Austrian Cultural Institute in Rome (1956), he worked in the Vienna Diplomata department of the Monumenta Germaniae Historica from 1957 to 1960 . In 1961, Uiblein was appointed assistant, in 1965 senior assistant at the Institute for Austrian Historical Research and was initially assigned to Alphons Lhotsky († 1968), from 1969 to Erich Zöllner .

In 1973 he obtained the venia legendi (lectureship) for Austrian history with special emphasis on medieval source studies and university history. Uiblein was then appointed associate professor for the aforementioned nominal subject in 1977 and, in addition to academic teaching, devoted himself to researching and editing late medieval sources, particularly on the history of the University of Vienna.

Uiblein, who succeeded his teacher Alphons Lhotsky, showed great interest in the person and work of Thomas Ebendorfer von Haselbach (1388–1464), a topic that occupied him throughout his entire academic career. For Ebendorf's 600th birthday, he made a significant contribution to the exhibition designed by his student Johannes Seidl in Perchtoldsdorf Castle in 1988 .
