R.W. Seton-Watson, Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor (1902); and Christopher Hare (pseud. of Marian Andrews), Maximilian the Dreamer: Holy Roman Emperor, 1459–1519 (1913), are the most important of the older presentations in English. Glenn Elwood Waas, The Legendary Character of Kaiser Maximilian (1941, reissued 1966), is primarily concerned with his character and personality and offers an imposing bibliography. Gerhard Benecke, Maximilian I (1459–1519) (1982), describes the ruler’s career and character and presents the social history of the land he governed.
