Albert Suho

Albert Suho (before 1390 - after 1449 ) was a German priest and scribe.

Suho represented his home town of Osnabrück at the Council of Basel. He wrote several spiritual treatises in Latin and a world chronicle in Middle Low German.

Suhos Chronicle tells a continuous history from the creation of the world until the year 1447 (1452 in a second editorial ), with emphasis on Osnabrück in the later parts. The largest part of the text draws from the then relevant texts ( Peter Riga, Martin of Opava ) and is therefore relatively uninteresting, but the last parts are an important source for the history of the Church of the city dar.

Lange was only a manuscript of the chronicle known ( Berlin / Kraków ), but two other manuscripts have been discovered lately ( Warburg in the 1990s, Leiden, 2012).
