Описание: After the State and the Church, the most well organized membership system of medieval and early modern Europe was the confraternity. In cities, towns, and villages it would have been difficult for someone not to be a member of a confraternity, the recipient of its charity, or aware of its presence in the community. In A Companion to Medieval and Early Modern Confraternities, Konrad Eisenbichler brings together an international group of scholars to examine confraternities from various perspectives: their origins and development, their devotional practices, their charitable activities, and their contributions to literature, music, and art. The result is a picture of confraternities as important venues for the acquisition of spiritual riches, material wealth, and social capital.

Описание:

Although the Middle Ages saw brilliant achievements in the diverse nations of East Central Europe, this period has been almost totally neglected in Western historical scholarship. East Central Europe in the Middle Ages provides a much-needed overview of the history of the region from the time when the present nationalities established their state structures and adopted Christianity up to the Ottoman conquest. Jean Sedlar’s excellent synthesis clarifies what was going on in Europe between the Elbe and the Ukraine during the Middle Ages, making available for the first time in a single volume information necessary to a fuller understanding of the early history of present-day Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, and the former Yugoslavia.

Sedlar writes clearly and fluently, drawing upon publications in numerous languages to craft a masterful study that is accessible and valuable to the general reader and the expert alike. The book is organized thematically; within this framework Sedlar has sought to integrate nationalities and to draw comparisons. Topics covered include early migrations, state formation, monarchies, classes (nobles, landholders, peasants, herders, serfs, and slaves), towns, religion, war, governments, laws and justice, commerce and money, foreign affairs, ethnicity and nationalism, languages and literature, and education and literacy.

After the Middle Ages these nations were subsumed by the Ottoman, Habsburg, Russian, and Prussian-German empires. This loss of independence means that their history prior to foreign conquest has acquired exceptional importance in today’s national consciousness, and the medieval period remains a major point of reference and a source of national pride and ethnic identity. This book is a substantial and timely contribution to our knowledge of the history of East Central Europe.

Описание: Whilst much recent scholarly work has sought to place early modern British and Irish history within a broader continental context, most of this has focused on western or northern Europe. In order to redress the balance, this new study by David Worthington explores the connections linking writers and expatriates from the later Tudor and Stuart kingdoms with the two major dynastic conglomerates east of the Rhine, the Austrian Habsburg lands and Poland-Lithuania. Drawing on a variety of sources, including journals, diaries, letters and travel accounts, the book not only shows the high level of scholarly interest evidenced within contemporary English language works about the region, but how many more British and Irish people ventured there than is generally recognised. As well as the soldiers, merchants and diplomats one might expect, we discover more unexpected and colourful characters, including a polymath Irish moral theologian in Vienna, an orphaned English poetess in Prague, a Welsh humanist in Cracow, and a Scottish physician and botanist at the Vasa court in Warsaw. This examination of the diverse range of Irish, Scottish, Welsh and English religious, intellectual, political, military and commercial contacts with central Europe provides not only a more balanced view of British and Irish history, but also continues the process of reintegrating the histories of the European regions. Furthermore, by extending the focus of research beyond widely studied areas, towards other more illuminating, international aspects, the book challenges scholars to analyse these networks within less parochial, and more transnational settings.

Описание: Die Adelsforschung der zur ckliegenden Jahrzehnte hat vor allem die beeindruckende Selbstbehauptung des deutschen Adels im 19. und fr hen 20. Jahrhundert herausgearbeitet. Trotz erfolgreicher Statusverteidigung kann letztlich jedoch kein Zweifel daran bestehen, dass der langfristige Machtverlust des Adels in seiner Gesamtheit, des Adels als Stand, seit dem Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts unvermeidbar war. Seine Geschichte im Verlauf des s kularen Modernisierungsprozesses muss deshalb, trotz aller Selbstbehauptung, am Ende doch als die Geschichte eines langen, immer wieder stark gebremsten, mehrfach unterbrochenen und abgelenkten Abstiegs beschrieben werden - ein langer Abschied von Macht und Ehre. Dieser spannungsvolle Befund verlangt, das Deutungs- und Darstellungsmodell der u erst folgenreichen Geschichte einer Selbstbehauptung des Adels korrigierender Kritik zu unterziehen.
Das Bem hen, eine "wirkliche Aristokratie" im Sinne Max Webers zu bilden, ist in vielen Handlungsfeldern, in denen sich Adlige und B rgerliche begegneten, erkennbar. Aber es scheint so, dass es im 19. und fr hen 20. Jahrhundert in fast allen seinen Anl ufen gescheitert ist. Es fragt sich, was die Gr nde dieses Scheiterns waren.
Bedeutungsverlust und Beharrungserfolg des deutschen Adels im Wandel des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts sind in der bisherigen Forschung ganz berwiegend mit dualen, linearen Mustern der Klassenkonkurrenz erkl rt worden. Das Publikationsprojekt "Elitenwandel in der Moderne" zielt darauf, Studien zu ver ffentlichen, die Korrekturen zu dieser Perspektive erarbeitet haben.
Pressestimmen:
"In den letzten Jahren sind zahlreiche eindrucksvolle empirische Studien zur Adelsgeschichte entstanden, die z.T. von Heinz Reif direkt angeregt, unterst tzt und begleitet unser Bild vom 'Adel' erheblich differenziert, relativiert und korrigiert haben."

Описание:

Covering territory from Russia in the east to Germany and Austria in the west, The Routledge History of East Central Europe since 1700 explores the origins and evolution of modernity in this turbulent region. This book applies fresh critical approaches to major historical controversies and debates, expanding the study of a region that has experienced persistent and profound change and yet has long been dominated by narrowly nationalist interpretations.

Written by an international team of contributors that reflects the increasing globalization and pluralism of East Central European studies, chapters discuss key themes such as economic development, the relationship between religion and ethnicity, the intersection between culture and imperial, national, wartime, and revolutionary political agendas, migration, women's and gender history, ideologies and political movements, the legacy of communism, and the ways in which various states in East Central Europe deployed and were formed by the politics of memory and commemoration. This book uses new methodologies in order to fundamentally reshape perspectives on the development of East Central Europe over the past three centuries.

Transnational and comparative in approach, this volume presents the latest research on the social, cultural, political and economic history of modern East Central Europe, providing an analytical and comprehensive overview for all students of this region.

Описание: While many think of European history in terms of the major states that today make up the map of Europe, this approach tends to overlook submerged nations like the Wends, the westernmost Slavs who once inhabited the lands which later became East Germany and Western Poland. This book examines the decline and gradual erosion of the Wends from the time when they occupied all the land between the River Elbe and the River Vistula around 800 AD to the present, where they still survive in tiny enclaves south of Berlin (the Wends and Sorbs) and west of Danzig (the Kashubs). Slav Outposts in Central European History - which also includes numerous images and maps - puts the story of the Wends, the Sorbs and the Kashubs in a wider European context in order to further sophisticate our understanding of how ethnic groups, societies, confessions and states have flourished or floundered in the region. It is an important book for all students and scholars of central European history and the history of European peoples and states more generally.
