English summary: Different generations write history in different ways. As a result of the tremendous changes in the 16th century, Nuremberg family histories were written more frequently and even replaced each other, beginning with data collections in narrative form by the humanist Christoph Scheurl mainly in the early 16th century. Genealogical writing, as well as political, confessional and theological accounts, are witness to the competition for esteem of different elite families in this major German city. The sources consist of formerly unknown material as well as of works of significant cultural value like the Great Book of the Tuchers. This final version of the family histories of the Tucher family was produced in a process that lasted decades, for which some of Central Europe's best artists - like Jost Amman - were consulted. The main focus is on the historical concept of 'generation, as it was implemented in private letters and representative codices of the Tucher family's history: A key concept in this dynamic culture of history and commemoration. German text. German description: Verschiedene Generationen schreiben die Geschichte ihrer Familie unterschiedlich. So liesse sich die lebhafte Entwicklung der Nurnberger Familiengeschichtsschreibung seit den Collectaneenbanden des Humanisten Christoph Scheurl aus dem ersten Drittel des 16. Jahrhunderts resumieren. Neben genealogischen Ausfuhrungen zeigen vor allem die politischen, konfessionell-religiosen und geschichtstheologischen Inhalte die Dynamik im Achtungsmarkt familiarer Vergangenheiten. Die untersuchten Quellen umfassen neben neu erschlossenen Materialien auch kulturhistorisch bedeutsame Werke wie das Grosse Tucherbuch, an dessen Jahrzehnte dauernder Fertigstellung so bedeutende Kunstler wie Jost Amman mitwirkten. Das Hauptaugenmerk des Autors richtet sich auf die historische Bedeutung des Begriffs Generation in der brieflichen Uberlieferung der Familie Tucher und in reprasentativen Geschlechterbuchern: Eine zentrale Sinnkategorie in einer Erinnerungs- und Geschichtskultur des 16. Jahrhunderts.
