The "lion of Saint Mark's" in Venice, the "Capitoline wolf" in Rome, or the "griffin" on the imperial palace in Goslar: Monumental animal bronzes dominated many medieval cities and palaces. Whether taken from antiquity, reworked, and partially altered, or cast anew, they represent ideal figures of identification for single individuals or social groups until today due to their size, positioning, and generally open meaning. The book takes a look for the first time at selected bronzes south and north of the Alps, their histories and modes of reception from a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective.

Der ''Markuslöwe'' in Venedig, die ''Kapitolinische Wölfin'' in Rom oder der ''Greif'' auf der Kaiserpfalz in Goslar: Monumentale Tierbronzen dominierten viele mittelalterliche Städte und Paläste. Ob aus der Antike übernommen, überarbeitet und teils verändert oder neu gegossen, stellen sie aufgrund ihrer Größe, Platzierung und meist offen gehaltenen Bedeutungen bis heute ideale Identifikationsfiguren für einzelne Individuen oder soziale Gruppen dar. Der Band nimmt ausgewählte Bronzen südlich und nördlich der Alpen, ihre Geschichten und Rezeptionsweisen erstmals vergleichend und interdisziplinär in den Blick.
