Sažetak
Michael Weise is a German historian of the younger generation. He studied and worked as a student research assistant at the University of Giessen from 2006 to 2012. From 2012 to 2015. he was a “research assistant” at the Research Group of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft “Gewaltgemeinschaften on the sub-project Fremde Gewalt – Grenzkriegergruppen in Binnenraum des europäischen Kriegstheaters im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert. He is currently employed as “head of exhibitions and collections” at Stiftung Lutherhaus Eisenach. Already in his master’s thesis, he wrote about the role of Croatian soldiers in the Thirty Years’ War, more precisely on their activities in the territory of the German federal state of Hessen. He published several more articles about Croatian soldiers in the Thirty Years’ War and is currently writing his doctoral dissertation entitled “Kroatenjahre” – Gewalthandeln und Gewaltwahrnehmung einer “fremden” Kriegergruppe im Dreißjährigen Krieg, i.e. in English translation “Year of the Croats” – Acts of Violence and Perception of the Violence of Mercenaries in the Thirty Years’ War. Colleague Weise was also a member of the editorial board of the collection of papers Zwischen Tätern und Opfern. Gewaltbeziehungen und Gewaltgemeinschaften (Between Perpetrators and Victims. Violent Relationships and Community Violence), Göttingen, 2017. It should be emphasized that he was also one of the participants of the notable International Scientific Conference “Chronicles of mercenaries, legends and stereotypes” held on the occasion of marking the 400th anniversary of the beginning of the Thirty Years’ War in April 2018 in Zagreb. Since he is writing his doctoral dissertation, which will undoubtedly arouse great interest in the domestic historiographic scene, I asked him for an interview in which he would present the results of his research to the Croatian readership. Colleague Weise’s bibliography is attached to the interview, which was conducted in English.
