    The Works and Times of Johan Huizinga (1872–1945) (2024)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: The lifetime of Johan Huizinga (1872–1945) was marked by dramatic transformations in Europe. Cityscapes, aesthetic codes, social orders, political cultures, international travel and means of warfare developed beyond recognition; entire catalogues of hopes and fears were torn asunder and replaced by new ones during not one but two wars. Amidst all these changes, Huizinga grew to become one of the most famous historians of his time. To this day, his works are treated as monuments in the cultural historical field. This book examines how these transformations and ‘experiences of loss’ affected and informed Huizinga’s historical perspectives. Most centrally, this book contends that Huizinga’s historical works helped to accommodate and give meaning to his own experiences of uncertainty and rupture, thus offering him a way of life in turbulent times. This project offers an original and comprehensive analysis of an iconic historian writing in the age of collapse

    Notions of Privacy at Early Modern European Courts (2024)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-11
    Description: Grand, extravagant, magnificent, scandalous, corrupt, political, personal, fractious; these are terms often associated with the medieval and early modern courts. Moreover, the court constituted a forceful nexus in the social world, which was central to the legitimacy and authority of rulership. As such, courts shaped European politics and culture: architecture, art, fashion, patronage, and cultural exchanges were integral to the spectacle of European courts. Researchers have convincingly emphasised the public nature of courtly events, procedures, and ceremonies. Nevertheless, court life also involved pockets of privacy, which have yet to be systematically addressed. This edited collection addresses this lacuna and offers interpretations that urge us to reassesses the public nature of European courts. Thus, the proposed publication will fertilise the grounds for a discussion of the past and future of court studies. Indeed, the contributions make us reconsider present-day understandings of privacy as a stable and uncontestable notion.

    Feminist Approaches to Early Medieval English Studies (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Scholarship on early medieval England has seen an exponential increase in scholarly work by and about women over the past twenty years, but the field has remained peculiarly resistant to the transformative potential of feminist critique. Since 2016, Medieval Studies has been rocked by conversations about the state of the field, shifting from #MeToo to #WhiteFeminism to the purposeful rethinking of the label “Anglo-Saxonist.” This volume takes a step toward decentering the traditional scholarly conversation with thirteen new essays by American, Canadian, European, and UK professors, along with independent scholars and early career researchers from a range of disciplinary perspectives. Topics range from virginity, women’s literacy, and medical discourse to affect, medievalism, and masculinity. The theoretical and political commitments of this volume comprise one strand of a multivalent effort to rethink the parameters of the discipline and to create a scholarly community that is innovative, inclusive, and diverse.

    Dynasties and State Formation in Early Modern Europe (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In state formation research, princely houses have been a blind spot. The development of states has been discussed from many perspectives, like interstate competition, internal social conflicts, fiscal-military developments, etc., but at the centre of most European states, there was a princely house. These ruling houses have been overlooked in studies about state formation. What’s more, when discussing such dynasties, the vertical chronological perspective (grandfather-father-son) is all dominating, for instance in the focus on dynastic continuity, dynastic culture and representation, and the like. This collection of essays highlights the horizontal perspective (ruler, all children, siblings, cousins), in asking how the members of a princely family acted as a power network. The quest is to develop an understanding how this family network interplayed with other factors in the state formation process. This volume brings together existing knowledge of the topic with the aim of exchanging insights and furthering knowledge.

    The Making of the Humanities (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: While it is clear that around 1800 the humanities as a discipline rose to prominence, it is less clear what the exact nature of this shift in academia was. Was it a sudden revolution caused by a momentary but powerful change in the zeitgeist or the turning point of a much longer process? In this volume, the editors have selected a series of essays that look at the origins of the humanities and find that long before 1800 the concept of the humanities was already at the fore. The shift around 1800 was thus mostly institutional, not theoretical. The Making of the Humanities traces this new finding through a broad range of disciplines including literary theory, linguistics, art history, and musicology.

    Dynamics of Power in Dutch Integration Politics (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Integration politics in the Netherlands has changed dramatically between 1990 and 2005. Whereas ethnic and religious differences were hitherto pacified through accommodation, a new and increasingly powerful current in Dutch politicsproblematizes the presence of minorities.This development represents a challenge to sociologists and political scientists: how to map and explain drastic changes?Arguing that extant approaches are better at explaining continuity than change, this book develops a distinct approach to the study of dynamic power relations to understand drastic transformations in the national debate as well as urban governance.

    The Green Middle Ages (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: How ‘green’ were people in late antiquity and the Middle Ages? Unlike today, the nature around them was approached with faith, trust and care. The population size was many times smaller than today and human impact on nature not as extreme as it is now. People did not have to worry about issues like deforestation and sustainability. This book is about the knowledge of plants and where that knowledge came from. How did people use earth and plants in ancient times, and what did they know about their nutritional or medicinal properties? From which plants one could make dyes, such as indigo, woad and dyer’s madder? Is it possible to determine that through technical research today? Which plants could be found in a ninth-century monastery garden, and what is the symbolic significance of plants in secular and religious literature? The Green Middle Ages addresses these and other issues, including the earliest herbarium collections, with a leading role for the palaeography and beautiful illuminations from numerous medieval manuscripts kept in Dutch and other Western libraries and museums.

    Trans and Genderqueer Subjects in Medieval Hagiography (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-06
    Description: Trans and Genderqueer Subjects in Medieval Hagiography presents an interdisciplinary examination of trans and genderqueer subjects in medieval hagiography. Scholarship has productively combined analysis of medieval literary texts with modern queer theory – yet, too often, questions of gender are explored almost exclusively through a prism of sexuality, rather than gender identity. This volume moves beyond such limitations, foregrounding the richness of hagiography as a genre integrally resistant to limiting binaristic categories, including rigid gender binaries. The collection showcases scholarship by emerging trans and genderqueer authors, as well as the work of established researchers. Working at the vanguard of historical trans studies, these scholars demonstrate the vital and vitally political nature of their work as medievalists. Trans and Genderqueer Subjects in Medieval Hagiography enables the re-creation of a lineage linking modern trans and genderqueer individuals to their medieval ancestors, providing models of queer identity where much scholarship has insisted there were none, and re-establishing the place of non-normative gender in history.

    Protéger, libérer, assujettir (2023)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Au milieu du XIVe siècle, la commune de Florence, qui ne contrôlait jusqu'alors qu'un petit territoire au-delà des murs de la cité, le contado, réussit à assujettir les six principaux centres urbains voisins : Colle Valdelsa, San Gimignano, Prato, Pistoia, Volterra et San Miniato. Pour mener à bien cet assujettissement, le pouvoir florentin ne pouvait cependant se contenter d’une pure et simple conquête militaire : l’issue en aurait été non seulement incertaine mais surtout très difficile à consolider dans le temps. Car même s’ils n’avaient pas atteint l’importance démographique des grandes cités de la région, les centres convoités étaient parvenus à maintenir leur autonomie depuis plus d’un siècle. Ils avaient par conséquent développé une identité politique et culturelle propre, en vertu de laquelle ils auraient pu, une fois conquis, refuser la soumission et constituer partant des foyers permanents de révolte. D’où la nécessité pour les Florentins d’élaborer des instruments en mesure de légitimer leur domination et d’en assurer ainsi la pérennité. Quels furent les mécanismes explicites et implicites de cette entreprise de légitimation ? À partir d’une étude approfondie des actes juridiques qui formalisèrent la soumission et du discours produit sur celle-ci par les chroniques contemporaines, cet ouvrage en analyse les ressorts politiques et culturels. Il permet ainsi de comprendre comment et pourquoi cet assujettissement fut paradoxalement pensé comme la condition nécessaire au maintien de la libertas.

    « In partibus fidelium ». Missions du Levant et connaissance de l’Orient chrétien (XIXe-XXIe siècles) (2023)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: En quoi les missions chrétiennes du Levant ont-elles été des lieux de production de savoirs « orientaux » ? Comment ces connaissances ont-elles circulé de part et d’autre de la Méditerranée ? Comment ont-elles été reformulées et réappropriées localement ? Cet ouvrage se penche sur l’assimilation en Europe de connaissances relatives aux cultures chrétiennes-orientales et sur le rôle que les missions ont joué dans ce processus. Collectés et élaborés dans les grandes bibliothèques et universités européennes, puis intégrés par les structures de gouvernance des Églises, ces nouveaux savoirs ont aussi été réappropriés dans l’espace d’où ils étaient issus. Ils ont donné lieu à des prises de conscience patrimoniales à côté des expériences tragiques de la fin de l’Empire ottoman et de l’établissement de nouveaux États. Ce travail éclaire ainsi la dimension intellectuelle des dynamiques d’arabisation des Églises locales, de reformulation des frontières confessionnelles et de construction d’identités communautaires et nationales au Moyen-Orient. Il montre enfin comment les missions contribuent à la mise en valeur du patrimoine culturel oriental, et comment le domaine du savoir participe d’une évolution de la notion de mission depuis la période ottomane. In what ways were the Christian missions in the Levant places of production of 'oriental' knowledge? Many late nineteenth and early twentieth-century academics utilised knowledge production from Christian missions, notably by way of scholarly Orientalism. However, the history of this knowledge is also a history of representations: while missionary knowledge helped showcase the cultural and religious traditions of Eastern Christianity, what were the underlying motives and especially the consequences? This book examines the formulation and circulation of Eastern Christian knowledge on either side of the Mediterranean, the study of which is sometimes rooted in non-Anglophone academic traditions. The aim is to shed light on how knowledge relating to Eastern Christianity was assimilated in Europe, as well as the role missions played in this process, especially from the last third of the nineteenth century, when the institutions and instruments for the circulation of knowledge emerged. Another objective is to address the circulations and transformations of this knowledge on either side of the Mediterranean: collected and developed in major European libraries and universities, it was integrated by the governance structures of churches, but quite often also returned to the space it originated from, where it was reappropriated and gave rise to patrimonial processes, notably alongside the sometimes tragic experiences of certain communities during the end of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of new states. Christian missions, at the intersection of East and West, were at the heart of this dynamic .

    A Dutch Republican Baroque (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In the Dutch Republic in the Baroque era, two aesthetic formal modes, theater and drama, were dynamically related to two political concepts, event and moment. The Dutch version of the Baroque is characterized by a fascination with this world regarded as one possibility out of a plurality of potential worlds. It is this fascination that explains the coincidence in the Dutch Republic, strange at first sight, of Baroque exuberance, irregularity, paradox, and vertigo with scientific rigor, regularity, mathematical logic, and rational distance. In giving a new historical perspective on the Baroque as a specifically Dutch republican one, this study also offers a new and systematic approach to the interactions among the notions of theatricality, dramatization, moment, and event.

    Challenging Women's Agency and Activism in Early Modernity (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Examining women's agency in the past has taken on new urgency in the current moment of resurgent patriarchy, Women's Marches, and the global #MeToo movement. The essays in this collection consider women's agency in the Renaissance and early modern period, an era that also saw both increasing patriarchal constraints and new forms of women's actions and activism. They address a capacious set of questions about how women, from their teenage years through older adulthood, asserted agency through social practices, speech acts, legal disputes, writing, viewing and exchanging images, travel, and community building. Despite family and social pressures, the actions of girls and women could shape their lives and challenge male-dominated institutions. This volume includes thirteen essays by scholars from many disciplines, which analyze people, texts, objects, and images from many different parts of Europe, as well as things and people that crossed the Atlantic and the Pacific.

    Pour le pape-roi (2023)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Au milieu du XIXe siècle, l’unification de l’Italie autour du royaume de Piémont-Sardaigne conduit à la disparition des États pontificaux. Cet événement a des répercussions dans toute l’Europe, et notamment en France. Le soutien apporté par Napoléon III à la cause italienne pousse en effet les catholiques, inquiets du sort du pape, à se détacher du régime impérial. Cet ouvrage met en lumière la mobilisation massive des catholiques français en faveur de la papauté au cours des années 1860 et montre comment le Saint-Siège a cherché à en tirer profit pour faire face aux difficultés causées par l’effondrement de son pouvoir temporel. À ce titre, une attention particulière est accordée aux aspects militaires (engagement au sein des zouaves pontificaux) et financiers (dons au denier de Saint-Pierre) du mouvement. L’ampleur de ce soutien et la diversité des formes qu’il prend montrent que, à rebours de certaines idées reçues, le XIXe siècle constitue pour la papauté et l’Église bien moins une période de déclin qu’un moment d’élaboration de nouveaux moyens d’action destinés à perpétuer leur influence.

    Les Italiens de Tunisie (2023)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Entre la fin du XIXe siècle et la Première Guerre mondiale, le jeune État italien connaît un vaste mouvement migratoire qui porte plusieurs millions de ses citoyens à chercher fortune ailleurs. Si les pays américains et européens accueillent la majeure partie de cette population, d’importantes communautés s’installent également sur les côtes méridionales du bassin méditerranéen. C’est notamment le cas de la Tunisie, devenue protectorat français, qui compte près de 90 000 Italiens en 1905 pour seulement 35 000 Français. Cette majorité démographique des Italiens ainsi que leur implication active dans le développement économique du territoire ne sont pas sans créer des tensions entre la France et l’Italie, pour qui la Tunisie représente une sorte de « colonie manquée » qui vient raviver ses aspirations colonialistes en Afrique. Cette communauté est d’autant plus singulière que les ressortissants de la Péninsule, majoritairement ouvriers, se trouvent dans une situation inter­médiaire entre la classe dominante des colonisateurs français et celle des colonisés tunisiens, dont ils partagent pourtant les mêmes conditions de vie. Cet ouvrage, à travers l’exemple des Italiens de Tunisie, interroge ainsi la manière dont une identité nationale peut se construire en dehors de toute territorialité.

    Film Societies in Germany and Austria 1910-1933 (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-07
    Description: This study traces the evolution of early film societies in Germany and Austria, from the emergence of mass movie theaters in the 1910s to the turbulent years of the late Weimar Republic. Examining a diverse array of groups, it approaches film societies as formations designed to assimilate and influence a new medium: a project emerging from the world of amateur science before taking new directions into industry, art and politics. Through an interdisciplinary approach—in dialogue with social history, print history and media archaeology—it also transforms our theoretical understanding of what a film society was and how it operated. Far from representing a mere collection of pre-formed cinephiles, film societies were, according to the book’s central argument, productive social formations, which taught people how to nurture their passion for the movies, how to engage with cinema, and how to interact with each other. Ultimately, the study argues that examining film societies can help to reveal the diffuse agency by which generative ideas of cinema take shape.

    European Women’s Letter-writing from the Eleventh to the Twentieth Centuries (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book reveals the importance of personal letters in the history of European women between the year 1000 and the advent of the telephone. It explores the changing ways that women used correspondence for self-expression and political mobilization over this period, enabling them to navigate the myriad gendered restrictions that limited women’s engagement in the world. Whether written from the medieval cloister, or the renaissance court, or the artisan’s workshop, or the drawing room, letters crossed geographical and social distance and were mobile in ways that women themselves could not always be. Women wrote to govern, to argue, to plead, and to demand. They also wrote to express love and intimacy, and in so doing, to explain and to understand themselves. This book argues that the personal letter was a crucial place for European women’s self-fashioning, and that exploring the history of their letters offers a profound insight into their subjectivity and agency over time.

    Pathways in Decentralised Collective Bargaining in Europe (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: One of the main challenges in labour relations in Europe is the ongoing decentralisation of collective bargaining from national and sectoral levels to company levels. Decentralisation might be an answer to business needs in competitiveness and organisational flexibility. However, it risks erosion of collective bargaining structures, more inequality in employment conditions and fragmentation in trade unions’ powers. Based on recent qualitative research, this book shows high varieties across European countries and economic sectors in degrees, forms and impacts of decentralisation. The authors explore, in interdisciplinary and multi-level perspectives, continuity and change in regulating and practicing collective bargaining in France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain and Sweden. In cross-country comparisons, company case studies in manufacturing and retail show the divergent effects of national regimes and social partners’ power resources on trade unions’ strategies and influence in company bargaining.

    The Cultural Construction of Safety and Security (2023)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This volume analyses cultural perceptions of safety and security that have shaped modern European societies. The articles present a wide range of topics, from feelings of unsafety generated by early modern fake news to safety issues related to twentieth-century drug use in public space. The volume demonstrates how ‘safety’ is not just a social or biological condition to pursue but also a historical and cultural construct. In philosophical terms, safety can be interpreted in different ways, referring to security, certainty or trust. What does feeling safe and thinking about a safe society mean to various groups of people over time? The articles in this volume are bound by their joint effort to take a constructionist approach to emotional expressions, artistic representations, literary narratives and political discourses of (un)safety and their impact on modern European society.

    L’héritage byzantin en Italie (VIIIe-XIIe siècle) (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Ce quatrième et dernier volume du programme L’héritage byzantin en Italie (VIIIe-XIIe siècle), qui cherchait à analyser et à comparer l’évolution des régions autrefois soumises à l’autorité byzantine, de la Vénétie à la Sicile et à la Sardaigne en passant par Ravenne, Rome, Naples, le Salento et la Calabre, a pour thème des realia. On s’est intéressé aux originalités touchant à l’occupation du sol, aux formes de la grande propriété, aux contrats agraires et aux platee (listes de dépendants), enfin à la production et au commerce. La Sicile (sous les dominations byzantine et islamique) et la Sardaigne judicale (souvent négligée) sont bien représentées, à côté des diverses régions continentales ayant dépendu de l’Exarchat. Si, comme on s’y attendait, les évolutions sont dissemblables, les conclusions de Chris Wickham montrent la force de la tradition byzantine à propos de la grande propriété et du commerce ; l’héritage byzantin n’est pas uniforme, mais, même dans ces domaines éloignés de l’idéologie, il a laissé des traces durables.

    Ving-cinq ans après (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: En mai 2016, un colloque international était l’occasion de célébrer, à l’École française de Rome, le XXVe anniversaire de la parution de l’Histoire des femmes en Occident et le XXe anniversaire de la publication de la Storia delle donne in Italia, deux entreprises collectives dont l’éditeur italien Laterza avait été à l’origine. Le livre collectif issu de cette rencontre revient sur la genèse de ces ouvrages pionniers, leur réception et la solidité des acquis historiographiques dont ils sont le fruit en donnant tout d’abord la parole à Michelle Perrot et à quelques-unes des éditrices d’alors ; il s’efforce ensuite de rendre compte de l’extraordinaire évolution d’un champ d’études qui s’est enrichi en suivant les parcours déjà balisés par ces œuvres majeures, mais également en empruntant des directions plus inattendues. Plus de vingt éminent-e-s spécialistes font ainsi le point sur les thématiques les plus significatives qui, de nos jours, sont au cœur des questionnements de l’histoire des femmes et du genre, inscrite désormais dans une dimension globale : circulations, migrations et métissages, lois et droits, identités personnelles, familles et masculinités, économies et cultures matérielles.

    Les marchés de la mer (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Cette recherche étudie les modalités d’approvisionnement de la ville de Venise en produits de la mer (poissons, crustacés et coquillages) au XVIIIe siècle, dans un système qui concerne à la fois des acteurs, des pratiques, des espaces et des modes de gouvernement. L’analyse prend comme point de départ les espèces, leurs lieux de croissance, les rythmes de production, puis l’exploitation du poisson qui devient une ressource alimentaire pour la ville. À Venise, l’ensemble des habitants, des patriciens aux membres du popolo les plus fragiles, consomme des produits de la mer quotidiennement et sous toutes leurs formes. Cette place remarquable du poisson dans l’alimentation a entraîné, chez les acteurs impliqués dans ce système, pêcheurs, marchands et gouvernants, d’intenses réflexions autour de la propriété, de la gestion, de l’exploitation et de la protection des espèces. L’étude se situe par conséquent à la croisée de plusieurs champs historiques (histoire environnementale, histoire sociale et histoire des institutions) et emprunte également certaines de ses approches à l’histoire économique et à l’histoire urbaine. L’enjeu est de déterminer comment se crée et se négocie un système de gestion et d’exploitation d’une ressource, impliquant des savoirs politiques, des savoirs techniques et des usages particuliers élaborés dans des milieux lagunaires et maritimes. Cette interaction est en pleine évolution au XVIIIe siècle, à une période où les mécanismes marchands et économiques sont soumis à des évolutions de conception profondes. Les ressources de la mer n’échappent pas à ces questionnements et la materia del pesce, expression utilisée par les magistrats vénitiens, devient un espace de négociation, mais également de lutte, entre les acteurs du système et les gouvernants dans la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle.

    Postcolonial Memory in the Netherlands (2022)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book is about postcolonial memory in the Netherlands. This term refers to conflicts in contemporary society about how the colonial past should be remembered. The question is often: who has the right or ability to tell their stories and who do not? In other words: who has a voice, and who is silenced? As such, these conflicts represent a wider tendency in cultural theory and activism to use voice as a metaphor for empowerment and silence as voice’s negative counterpart, signifying powerlessness. And yet, there are voices that do not liberate us from, but rather subject us to power. Meanwhile, silence can be powerful: it can protect, disrupt and reconfigure. Throughout this book, it will become clear how voice and silence function not as each other’s opposites, but as each other’s continuation, and that postcolonial memory is articulated through the interplay of meaningful voices and meaningful silences.

    « Sous les pas des frères » (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Ce livre aborde l’art funéraire du XIIIe siècle par un biais original. Il s’intéresse à la manière dont les Frères Prêcheurs et Mineurs ont traité les sépultures de papes et de cardinaux dans leur discours, à la fois littéraire et monumental, entre 1250 et 1304. L’analyse des tombes de prélats situées dans des églises mendiantes, réparties entre l’Italie et la France, révèle une intervention des frères dans les choix d’emplacement, de forme et d’iconographie. Il ressort ainsi de l’enquête que les Frères Prêcheurs ont eu une politique de leur espace davantage planifiée que les Frères Mineurs, puisqu’ils n’acceptèrent dans le chœur de leurs églises que les sépultures de prélats appartenant à l’ordre, surmontées d’une plate-tombe. De leur côté, les Frères Mineurs ont construit un discours original sur leur rôle dans l’accompagnement des mourants, à la fois dans l’iconographie et dans la littérature homilétique. Enfin, ce livre accorde une place importante aux procédés mis en œuvre par les mendiants pour « créer » des saints parmi les prélats qui étaient issus de l’ordre ou qui en étaient des bienfaiteurs.

    Lives in Transit in Early Modern England (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: What did it mean in practice to be a ‘go-between’ in the early modern world? How were such figures perceived in sixteenth and seventeenth century England? And what effect did their movement between languages, countries, religions and social spaces – whether enforced or voluntary – have on the ways in which people navigated questions of identity and belonging? Lives in Transit in Early Modern England is a work of interdisciplinary scholarship which examines how questions of mobility and transculturality were negotiated in practice in the early modern world. Its twenty-four case studies cover a wide range of figures from different walks of life and corners of the globe, ranging from ambassadors to Amazons, monarchs to missionaries, translators to theologians. Together, the essays in this volume provide an invaluable resource for people interested in questions of race, belonging, and human identity.

    Contesting Austerity (2022)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Despite the historical and political similarities between Portugal and Spain, the contentious responses to austerity diverged in terms of number, rhythm and players. This book compares the contentious responses to austerity in Portugal and Spain during the Eurozone crisis and the Great Recession between 2008 and 2015. While in Spain a sustained wave of mobilisation lasted for three years, involving various players and leading to a transformation of the party system, in Portugal social movements were only able to mobilise in specific instances, trade unions dominated protest and, by the end of the cycle, institutional change was limited. Contesting Austerity shows that the different trajectories and outcomes in these two countries are connected to the nature and configurations of the players in the mobilisation process. While in Spain actors’ relative autonomy from one another led to deeper political transformation, in Portugal the dominance of the institutional actors limited the extent of that change.

    Lier et délier la propriété (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Les fidéicommis étaient consubstantiels aux sociétés d’Ancien Régime. En rendant les biens indisponibles et en fixant la ligne de succession, ces fondations testamentaires visaient la conservation de l’assise matérielle des familles. Au nom de la libre circulation des biens et d’une conception absolue de la propriété, ils furent au XVIIIe siècle l’objet de critiques qui débouchèrent sur des réformes dans certains États italiens. Rien de tel dans la République de Venise où le patriciat n’envisagea jamais de réformes systémiques qui risquaient de remettre en cause les équilibres politiques et sociaux. Néanmoins, dès la fin du XVe siècle, l’État vénitien légiféra à mesure que les fidéicommis entraient en contradiction avec d’autres systèmes normatifs : le recouvrement des créances et des impôts et le remboursement des dots. L’État définit également les conditions de levée de l’inaliénabilité des biens et mit en place, sous l’égide des Juges du Procurator, une procédure pour garantir le réinvestissement des capitaux assujettis à fidéicommis (emprunts publics et prêts) au prix d’un travail administratif considérable. L’exploitation des archives de cette cour permet d’éclairer le rôle de l’autorité judiciaire dans la cogestion des fidéicommis et celui des ayants droit qui pouvaient se comporter en administrateurs actifs, capables de remodeler le contenu du fidéicommis sans changer sa valeur. En scrutant les modalités du passage de l’indisponible au disponible, ce livre interroge l’élasticité d’un dispositif réputé pour sa rigidité ; il démontre aussi que les fidéicommis étaient une institution totalisante dont le gouvernement était autant une affaire de famille que l’affaire de l’État.

    L’économie du ‘mouchoir’ : crédit et microcrédit à Venise au XVIIIe siècle (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: La littérature sur le crédit à l’époque moderne s’est souvent focalisée sur les Monts-de-piété, les prêteurs juifs et les notaires, considérés comme le noyau du système de crédit préindustriel. Cependant, pour la majorité des habitants des villes de l’Ancien Régime, le besoin presque quotidien d’obtenir de petits prêts était satisfait par d’autres voies, moins connues mais tout aussi fondamentales pour la fragile économie des couches populaires. En utilisant des sources d’archives inédites, ce volume analyse l’architecture du marché du crédit à Venise au XVIIIe siècle. Au sein de ce marché, il est apparu que osti (aubergistes) et bastioneri – gestionnaires des bastioni, entrepôts où le vin était vendu à emporter – occupaient une place centrale, à la fois comme fournisseurs de biens de première nécessité et prêteurs sur gage. Ils étaient un point de référence incontournable pour les franges les plus pauvres et vulnérables de la société, les protagonistes de ce que l’auteur appelle « l’économie du mouchoir » (economia del fazzoletto). Chaque année osti et bastioneri prenaient en gage des dizaines de milliers d’objets d’usage quotidien – la vraie « richesse » des pauvres – dans le cadre de transactions à mi-chemin entre crédit et consommation. Les coffres et les armoires des Vénitiens devenaient de véritables réserve de valeur, toujours disponibles pour être exploitées en cas de besoin : il s’agissait d’une ressource fondamentale, qui leur permettait de survivre, un mouchoir à la fois.

    Male ablata (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Dans l’Occident médiéval, à partir du XIIe siècle, la question des biens mal acquis rencontre celle de la restitution, cet acte par lequel le bon chrétien s’engage à rendre les richesses acquises illicitement pour être en accord avec l’enseignement de l’Église et avec sa conscience. Les male ablata ont souvent pour origine - mais non exclusivement - des relations de crédit abusives, usuraires, que la restitution permet précisément de réparer en indemnisant, directement ou indirectement, les débiteurs lésés. Du XIIe au XVe siècle, des sources variées documentent ce mouvement de restitutio male ablatorum, depuis les dispositions pontificales, les questions théologiques et les commentaires des canonistes jusqu’aux testaments et donations inter vivos, en passant par des promesses de restitution ou des actes judiciaires. Pour interroger cette documentation, il importe avant tout de se dégager d’un a priori historiographique très répandu qui en réduit la portée à une simple moralisation hypocrite, pour satisfaire l’Église, des pratiques économiques des marchands médiévaux. Les textes réunis dans ce volume s’appuient sur des dossiers documentaires inédits et apportent une première réponse aux questions historiques posées par la restitution des biens mal acquis : quels en furent les acteurs, les bénéficiaires et les intermédiaires, quelles en furent les modalités, la chronologie et la place dans les sociétés médiévales ?

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Ce livre étudie la fabrique d’une politique étrangère, celle de l’Italie dans cet étranger proche qu’est pour elle la péninsule balkanique. L’Europe du sud-est est en effet, à la fin du XIXe siècle, le principal théâtre d’une « question nationale » à laquelle l’Italie doit son existence. C’est l’entrelacs de la Realpolitik, de la cause des peuples, mais aussi des intérêts matériels des individus et des groupes impliqués dans l’expansionnisme qu’examine cet ouvrage. Le livre brosse successivement les traits fondamentaux de cette politique : d’abord l’invention d’une légitimité à guider les peuples balkaniques vers la rédemption nationale. Ensuite le choc de la réalité, celle d’une puissance faible qui doit se réfugier dans un soft-power libéral et humanitaire. Il situe ensuite les questions balkaniques par rapport au débat politique en Italie même : entre Question d’Orient, irrédentisme et colonialisme. S’intéressant aux acteurs de cette politique balkanique (savants, militants, consuls et affairistes), il apporte des éléments factuels et interprétatifs neufs sur l’impérialisme en pleine grandeur qui dessine, entre 1912 et 1915, un embryon d’empire italien en Méditerranée.

    Description: Comment Florence la guelfe, cité industrieuse et commerciale, peut-elle résoudre son problème portuaire en bénéficiant des infrastructures et de la flotte de Pise la gibeline au XIVe siècle ? Dépassant le campanilisme historiographique, cet ouvrage interroge les relations, tour à tour houleuses et cordiales, entre deux villes ennemies sur le plan politique mais aux économies complémentaires. Ne se contentant pas d’une histoire centrée sur les marchands et les compagnies commerciales, ce livre examine le rôle crucial des institutions – en particulier de la nation et des tribunaux marchands – dans la régulation et le dynamisme de l’économie florentine. Les nations marchandes restent mal connues dans le cas florentin. Or, le cas de Pise révèle plusieurs originalités : la certification de la citoyenneté, une direction bicéphale, une loggia dans le palais-même du seigneur. De plus, la connaissance fine des finances de la nation, qui permet de reconstituer le trafic florentin, prouve que la sécurisation des échanges importe davantage que la réduction des coûts. Cette nation est ainsi le prolongement à l’étranger du tribunal de la Mercanzia florentine, amenée à gérer les conflits sur les douanes, les faillites, les représailles et à aplanir les conflits par la voie judiciaire.

    The Frisian Popular Militias between 1480 and 1560 (2022)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In the late Middle Ages and early modern times, able-bodied men between sixteen and sixty years of age were called upon all over Europe to participate in raids, sieges and battles, for the defense of home and hearth. Because these men are regarded as amateurs, military historiography has paid little attention to their efforts. This book aims to change that by studying the mobilization, organization and weaponry of popular levies for a time when war was frequently waged between states in the making. Central to the book is the composition and development of the rural and urban militias in Friesland, dissected in a comparative Northwest European perspective, along with an examination of why the self-defense of the Frisians ultimately failed in their efforts to preserve their political autonomy. The main source is an extensive series of muster lists from 1552 that have survived for six cities and fourteen rural districts.

    Les Allemands à Venise 1380-1520 (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Au pied des Alpes, Venise, ouverte sur le monde : les immigrants venus du Nord, désignés au XVe siècle comme Allemands, qu’ils soient venus de l’Empire ou de ses confins, ont formé dans le tissu urbain une minorité active, sans cesse renouvelée. La présence allemande à Venise est attestée depuis la fin du XIIe siècle dans tous les secteurs de la vie artisanale et industrielle et se disperse dans toute la ville. Mais les plus anciens témoignages sur cette présence soulignent le rôle économique et l’importance institutionnelle d’un édifice situé près du pont du Rialto, où les marchands allemands sont contraints de résider. Par le « Fondaco dei Tedeschi » un flux continu de métaux monétaires, produits des mines d’Europe centrale, constitue la contrepartie des importations d’épices, de soieries et de coton qui font la fortune de Venise et approvisionnent l’Outremont, de Bruges à Cracovie. Les résidents du « Fondaco » sont les représentants des principales villes et sociétés d’affaires, qui, de la Haute-Allemagne à la Rhénanie, dominent au XVe siècle et jusqu’au début du XVIe siècle les échanges entre le monde méditerranéen et l’Europe du Nord et du Nord-Ouest. Ces échanges font de Venise une place essentielle pour l’apprentissage du commerce, qu’il s’agisse de la langue, du droit ou de la comptabilité. Hors du « Fondaco », actes notariés et testaments font revivre une communauté présente dans tous les métiers, en particulier dans les domaines de pointe où l’art et l’invention technique se conjuguent, comme l’orfèvrerie ou l’imprimerie. Insérés jusqu’à se fondre dans les réseaux qui les entourent, ceux des ateliers, des paroisses et des « scuole », nombre d’Allemands ont construit une vie définitivement étrangère, et, par conséquent, vénitienne.

    Raison administrative et logiques d’empire (xvie-xixe siècle) (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Entre l’Ancien Régime et le xxe siècle émerge et s’affirme un pouvoir formidable, que nous connaissons sous le nom d’administration. Ce processus se développe notamment dans le contexte des empires européens des époques moderne et contemporaine : le sens du mot administrer évolue alors que s’affirme la nécessité de gouverner des espaces multiples et hétérogènes, proches et lointains. Ce livre propose de remonter aux sources puis de suivre la trace de cette raison administrative et de son affirmation au cours d’une chronologie habituellement associée à l’histoire de l’État, ici au second plan. Historiens et historiens du droit réfléchissent ici à l’administration à partir de l’étude de cas concrets, inscrits dans des contextes chronologiques et spatiaux différents, ainsi que dans des cultures politiques et juridiques fortement diversifiées. Ce dialogue entre plusieurs horizons historiographiques constitue dès lors une tentative de saisie des logiques administratives à bonne distance des téléologies traditionnelles, depuis l’analyse des institutions étatiques et des dynamiques centres-périphéries, vers les redéfinitions de la podestas et l’exercice du commandement à l’échelle locale.

    La vie politique à Marseille sous la domination angevine (1348-1385) (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: La commune marseillaise au XIVe siècle est marquée par la domination angevine de Naples, qui n’étouffe cependant pas la vitalité politique urbaine, dont témoigne la dimension scripturale de l’administration municipale. Le gouvernement quotidien a en effet produit une abondante documentation jusqu’ici peu étudiée pour elle-même : les délibérations du conseil de ville, dans lesquelles se dessinent les jeux de pouvoir traversant la cité portuaire. Les années 1348-1385 sont marquées à Marseille par une situation de crise prolongée, notamment par la durable déstabilisation du pouvoir souverain. Dans ce contexte, l’assemblée municipale s’affirme comme le lieu du gouvernement de la ville. Alors que s’effacent les officiers royaux, le conseil de ville s’approprie une part grandissante d’autonomie et consolide le statut marseillais d’exception dans le comté de Provence. Les pratiques de l’assemblée – délibérations, serments, désignation de citoyens chargés de mettre en œuvre les ordonnances adoptées – permettent à de nombreux habitants de participer à l’activité de l’assemblée urbaine, sous la direction d’une élite municipale qui s’entoure de notaires et de praticiens du droit. La légitimité communale s’appuie sur des outils scripturaux, depuis les statuts de la ville jusqu’aux écrits les plus quotidiens, dont la circulation définit un régime de normativité spécifique. L’enregistrement des séances s’avère l’instrument décisif de la construction de l’autorité par l’écrit : autour des registres délibératifs gravitent les multiples pièces administratives et juridiques qui assurent l’institutionnalisation et l’autonomie du gouvernement de la ville.

    Description: Dedicato alla memoria di Mireille Cébeillac-Gervasoni, scomparsa il 29 marzo 2017, il volume raccoglie 22 contributi di amici e colleghi presentati al Quinto seminario Ostiense (Roma – Parco Archeologico di Ostia Antica, 21 e 22 marzo 2018). Dopo un’introduzione che mette in risalto il ruolo degli studi su Ostia nell’opera scientifica della studiosa, il volume contiene una prima serie di saggi dedicati alla storia istituzionale, sociale o religiosa della città porto di Roma e che si avvalgono di dati nuovi o rivisti di natura epigrafica o archeologica. Sulla linea del percorso intellettuale e delle ricerche di Mireille Cébeillac-Gervasoni, e talvolta riallacciandosi esplicitamente ai suoi studi, la seconda parte del libro tratta più specificamente il tema delle élites dell’Italia romana, ma allargandosi alla storia del Mediterraneo romano con l’esempio dei riti funebri della colonia di Filippi. Tutti i contributi vogliono offrire un riflesso sfaccettato e nello stesso tempo, anche se non completo, almeno fedele dell’iniziativa dei Seminari Ostiensi da lei sempre sostenuta con particolare impegno, e delle ricerche che ha ispirato nella sua lunga carriera.

    Les cardinaux entre Cour et Curie (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Les cardinaux sont connus du grand public comme des figures prestigieuses des Églises et des sociétés locales. Ils suscitent aussi l’intérêt des médias internationaux par leur rôle, majeur mais toujours mystérieux, dans l’élection du pape. Pourtant, la nature de leur charge et la réalité de leurs fonctions demeurent largement dans l’ombre. Les membres du Sacré Collège composent une élite qui ne ressemble à aucune autre : aristocratique au sens du choix des « meilleurs », et cependant non héréditaire, à fort ancrage local mais aussi très internationalisée, placée à partir des Lumières et de la Révolution face au défi de s’adapter à la modernité. Cet ouvrage est centré sur les aspects spécifiquement romains de l’activité multiforme des « porporati ». Ceux-ci sont saisis à la fois en tant que corps constitué, sede plena (consistoire) et sede vacante (conclave), qu’individuellement, comme responsables de dicastères de la Curie, acteurs majeurs de la diplomatie vaticane, mais aussi protecteurs de congrégations religieuses, dignitaires de la Cour pontificale et détenteurs d’un « titre » cardinalice symbolisant leur ancrage dans la Ville. Les vingt-cinq contributions réunies dans ce volume, accompagnées d’une bibliographie et de plusieurs index, sont le fruit d’un programme de recherches interdisciplinaires qui a rassemblé une équipe internationale d’historiens et d’historiens du droit, et qui a été conduit par l’École française de Rome, l’Institut catholique de Paris et l’Université Paris-Sud.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: The unrest and violence in Ukraine in recent years shocked the world, and the region's long-term future remains troublingly uncertain. Focusing on the difficulty of Kiev's transition from socialism to market democracy, this book demonstrates how Ukraine reached this turbulent point. Roman Adrian Cybriwsky delves deeply into the changing social geography of the city, recent urban development, and critical problems such as official corruption, inequality, sex tourism, and the heedless destruction of the city's historical architecture - all difficulties that have contributed incrementally to Ukrainian citizens' anger against their government. This thoroughly revised edition brings Cybriwsky's account of events and their ramifications fully up to date, offering the clearest picture we've had yet of what has happened - and what is likely still to come - in Ukraine.

    Flavian Responses to Nero's Rome (2022)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: In this interdisciplinary volume, a team of classicists, historians, and archaeologists examines how the memory of the infamous emperor Nero was negotiated in different contexts and by different people during the ensuing Flavian age of imperial Rome. The contributions show different Flavian responses to Nero’s complicated legacy: while some aspects of his memory were reinforced, others were erased. Emphasizing the constant and diverse nature of this negotiation, this book proposes a nuanced interpretation of both the Flavian age itself and its relation to Nero’s Rome. By combining the study of these strategies with architectural approaches, archaeology, and memory studies, this volume offers a multifaceted picture of Roman civilization at a crucial turning point, and as such will have something to offer anyone interested in classics, (ancient) history, and archaeology.

    I registri della giustizia penale nell’Italia dei secoli XII-XV (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Nell'attuale paesaggio storiografico italiano è ben presente la volontà di lavorare sulle differenti tipologie documentarie prodotte nell’Italia dei Comuni. Così è per gli studi sugli statuti comunali, studi iniziati nel XIX secolo che proseguono tutt’oggi con atti di convegni ed edizioni documentarie, e per tutte le fonti istituzionali amministrative di carattere ordinario: delibere di organi consiliari (riformanze), registri fiscali, corrispondenze epistolari, registri giudiziari. Risultato di un convegno organizzato all'École française de Rome (6-8 giugno 2017), questo volume è il primo interamente dedicato ai registri della giustizia penale (libri maleficiorum); si tratta di documenti relativi alla gestione della cosa pubblica destinati all'azione, che racchiudono finalità performative. Sono presenti in quantità cospicue nel territorio italiano, in molti fondi di archivi e biblioteche comunali e negli Archivi di Stato. La «Rivoluzione documentaria» dell’Italia comunale ha conosciuto una delle sue più potenti espressioni anche attraverso le carte di questa amministrazione ordinaria. Facendo parte a pieno titolo di una storia della giustizia, che si è rinnovata negli ultimi anni cercando di aprirsi il più possibile a tutto il territorio italiano e mostrando punti in comune e differenze regionali, i saggi qui raccolti si soffermano sulla produzione dei libri maleficiorum. Sono indagati il loro ruolo nel sistema documentario dei comuni e di altre istituzioni, la loro collocazione nel sistema documentario generale e le relazioni con altra documentazione comunale, il funzionamento delle istituzioni giudiziarie e i meccanismi procedurali, i conflitti, i negoziati e le sentenze. Le sezioni conclusive mettono a fuoco due temi centrali in materia di pratiche sociali, privilegiate nei libri maleficiorum stessi: la violenza e il genere.

    Czech Broadside Ballads as Text, Art, Song in Popular Culture, c.1600–1900 (2022)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This landmark collection makes a major contribution to the burgeoning field of broadside ballad study by investigating the hitherto unexplored treasure-trove of over 100,000 Central/Eastern European broadside ballads of the Czech Republic, from the 16th to the 19th century. Viewing Czech broadside ballads from an interdisciplinary perspective, we see them as unique and regional cultural phenomena: from their production and collecting processes to their musicology, linguistics, preservation, and more. At the same time, as contributors note, when viewed within a larger perspective—extending one’s gaze to take in ballad production in bordering lands (such as Germany, Poland, and Slovakia) and as far Northwest as Britain to as far Southwest as Brazil—we discover an international phenomenon at work. Czech printed ballads, we see, participated in a thriving popular culture of broadside ballads that spoke through text, art, and song to varied interests of the masses, especially the poor, worldwide.

    Description: En reconstituant les cultures et les imaginaires des militants socialistes français et italiens, cet ouvrage entend réfléchir aux motivations de l’adhésion idéologique et aux déterminants de l’agir politique. Mouvantes, les cultures socialistes sont ouvertes à de nombreuses influences : on peut ainsi mettre en évidence des superpositions avec les cultures catholiques, radicales ou communistes. Étudier une période brève permet en outre de travailler à l’intersection de différentes échelles – locale, nationale, internationale – et de décrire la diversité des représentations du monde qui voisinent au sein des deux partis, les rituels qui permettent de les exprimer, le rapport au temps et les pratiques politiques jugées légitimes. Il s’agit également de contribuer à l’histoire du socialisme européen au sortir de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et d’expliquer ses déchirements. « Maîtres de l’heure », selon les mots de Léon Blum, les partis socialistes d’Europe occidentale participent à la plupart des gouvernements d’union nationale qui suivent la Libération et inspirent certaines des réformes les plus emblématiques de la période. Mais, très vite, ils se trouvent englués dans la guerre froide naissante, à la recherche d’une hypothétique troisième voie qui peine à se dessiner et ils sont contraints à des choix tranchés qui provoquent, en France comme en Italie, tensions, rancœurs et scissions.

    Description: Entre l’effondrement de l’Empire napoléonien en 1815 et le milieu des années 1850, où la « question napolitaine » devient une affaire diplomatique internationale, la partie continentale du royaume des Deux-Siciles voit s’affirmer un scénario de politisation cohérent qui associe la revendication des libertés politiques à l’opposition à la monarchie bourbonienne. À partir de la documentation administrative bourbonienne, des écrits personnels des libéraux et de leurs productions politiques, on se propose d’étudier ce mouvement politique par ses acteurs. Il a pris la forme d’une société civile d’opposition réticulée et disparate, davantage anti-absolutiste qu’elle n’est idéologiquement libérale. À travers les circuits locaux, nationaux et transnationaux de la politisation libérale dans le Mezzogiorno pré-unitaire, c’est la singularité du Risorgimento méridional qu’on voudrait mettre en évidence, entre adhésions et résistances à la construction nationale italienne et réappropriations de cette dernière.

    Frères de sang, frères d’armes, frères ennemis (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Le XIXe siècle des nationalités s’est pensé comme le siècle de la fraternité, entre les peuples et les hommes. Et la nation moderne s’est souvent présentée comme fondée sur une extension de la famille, unie par le sang, les valeurs, la culture. Cette vision a entraîné des formes de mobilisation politique originales comme le volontariat, les sociétés de secours mutuel, les fraternités. Plus spécifiquement (mais non exclusivement) consacré à l’Italie du Risorgimento, ce volume prend acte de deux points qui apparaissent clairement : l’utilisation massive du mot frère (fratelli), fraternité (fratellanza) durant les guerres d’indépendance, et aussi de la mobilisation massive de frères de sang, d’une même famille, qui ont pu combattre ensemble : les frères Bandiera, Fabrizi, Cairoli… en sont quelques exemples. Or, si la fraternité est un concept, c’est aussi un état et un sentiment. Un état, car être frère relève d’un statut familial, encadré par des normes, des lois qui n’instaurent pas l’amour fraternel, qui lui, est un sentiment. À l’intersection de ces acceptions de la fraternité, le volume aborde donc la dimension biographique et met en évidence que la fraternité « de sang » est en fait, souvent, le cadre d’un affrontement politique régulé par les intérêts familiaux. Entre les concepts et la pratique, les idées et les acteurs, la polysémie de la fraternité s’avère être un formidable outil de mobilisation négociée.

    Human Trafficking in Medieval Europe (2022)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Human trafficking has become a global concern over the last twenty years, but its violence has terrorized and traumatized its victims and survivors for millennia. This study examines the deep history of human trafficking from Late Antiquity to the Early Modern Period. It traces the evolution of trafficking patterns: the growth and decline of trafficking routes, the everchanging relationships between traffickers and authorities, and it examines the underlying causes that lead to vulnerability and thus to exploitation. As the reader will discover, the conditions that lead to human trafficking in the modern world, such as poverty, attitudes of entitlement, corruption, and violence, have a long and storied past. When we understand that past, we can better anticipate human trafficking’s future, and then we are better able to fight it.

    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-23
    Description: Empires stretched around the world, but also made their presence felt in architecture and urban landscapes. The Architecture of Empire in Modern Europe traces the entanglement of the European built environment with overseas imperialism in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. As part of imperial networks between metropole and colonies, in cities as diverse as Glasgow, Hamburg, or Paris, numerous new buildings were erected such as factories, mission houses, offices, and museums. These sites developed into the physical manifestations of imperial networks. As Europeans designed, used, and portrayed them, these buildings became meaningful imperial places that conveyed the power relations of empire and Eurocentric self-images. Engaging with recent debates about colonial history and heritage, this book combines a variety of sources, an interdisciplinary approach, and an international scope to produce a cultural history of European imperial architecture across borders.

    Une réforme orientale à l’âge baroque (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: L’Union de Brest de 1595-1596, entre les orthodoxes ruthènes de Pologne-Lituanie et Rome, offre l’exemple le plus précoce et le plus abouti des Unions ecclésiastiques locales, nées sur les marges de l’Europe catholique au cours des XVIe-XVIIIe siècles. Pour cette raison, son histoire est devenue rapidement l’objet d’une controverse façonnée par la radicalité propre à la spiritualité baroque, avant d’alimenter les récits nationaux des différentes communautés slaves orientales. En remettant à plat ces narrations concurrentes, ce livre réexamine les origines de l’uniatisme et de l’anti-uniatisme de la période post-tridentine du point de vue des acteurs. À partir des données relatives au territoire lituanien, il associe les approches macro- et micro-historiques pour observer ces situations d’interface, de coexistence ou de conflit à l’intérieur de leurs contextes institutionnels, culturels et sociaux. L’étude de cette société en transformation, entre les années 1550 et 1650, montre que les Ruthènes ne se sont engagés que lentement dans la construction des frontières confessionnelles qui continuent de marquer les imaginaires contemporains. Le processus ne s’est accéléré que vers le milieu du XVIIe siècle avec l’adoption progressive des modèles romains et, plus encore, sous l’effet de la politisation du débat religieux, produite par la rivalité entre États. Ce prisme local conduit aussi à évaluer d’en bas le rôle de la papauté dans l’expression des appartenances des Slaves orientaux à l’époque moderne.

    Politica e diplomazia nell’Italia del primo Rinascimento (2022)
    Publications de l’École française de Rome
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Partendo dalla «lunga et grande guerra d’Italia» (Goro Dati) condotta nella prima metà del XV secolo da una mutevole coalizione di potentati contro Filippo Maria Visconti, il volume approfondisce ragioni e dinamiche del conflitto militare e ideologico tra Firenze e Milano - le cui radici risalgono al secolo precedente -, e lo apre all’intero contesto italiano, portando all’attenzione anche le ripercussioni che questa serie di scontri ebbe sui cambiamenti politici, diplomatici e culturali intercorsi nell’Italia del Rinascimento. Incardinato su un ricco corpus documentario e su una folta bibliografia, il lavoro si propone un duplice obiettivo: da un lato, offrire la ricostruzione e l’analisi degli avvenimenti inerenti alle origini di questo scontro antivisconteo, qui indagate attraverso un approccio interdisciplinare e multidisciplinare che stabilisce intersezioni tra ambiti di ricerca spesso ritenuti non così prossimi tra loro; dall’altro, mettere a disposizione una lettura più dilatata, permettendo di cogliere certe dinamiche e caratteristiche di quel «lungo Quattrocento» italiano che si prolunga fino alla metà del XVI secolo, così come le peculiarità di una lotta condotta con gli eserciti ma anche con gli ambasciatori e con le armi della retorica. Inserito nel solco della New Diplomatic History, lo sguardo è dunque cronologicamente e metodologicamente meno ristretto, e lo studio affronta in filigrana i problemi posti e le possibilità offerte dal fare oggi storia della diplomazia, sul piano tanto narrativo quanto epistemologico-disciplinare.

    Questioning Bodies in Shakespeare's Rome (2021)
    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Ancient Rome has always been considered a compendium of City and World. In the Renaissance, an era of epistemic fractures, when the clash between the 'new science' (Copernicus, Galileo, Vesalius, Bacon, etcetera) and the authority of ancient texts produced the very notion of modernity, the extended and expanding geography of ancient Rome becomes, for Shakespeare and the Elizabethans, a privileged arena in which to question the nature of bodies and the place they hold in a changing order of the universe. Drawing on the rich scenario provided by Shakespeare's Rome, and adopting an interdisciplinary perspective, the authors of this volume address the way in which the different bodies of the earthly and heavenly spheres are re-mapped in Shakespeare's time and in early modern European culture. More precisely, they investigate the way bodies are fashioned to suit or deconstruct a culturally articulated system of analogies between earth and heaven, microcosm and macrocosm. As a whole, this collection brings to the fore a wide range of issues connected to the Renaissance re-mapping of the world and the human. It should interest not only Shakespeare scholars but all those working on the interaction between sciences and humanities.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book examines the afterlife of decolonization in the collective memory of the Netherlands. It offers a new perspective on the cultural history of representing the decolonization of the Dutch East Indies, and maps out how a contested collective memory was shaped. Taking a transdisciplinary approach and applying several theoretical frames from literary studies, sociology, cultural anthropology and film theory, the author reveals how mediated memories contributed to a process of what he calls “unremembering.” He analyses in detail a broad variety of sources, including novels, films, documentaries, radio interviews, memoires and historical studies, to reveal how five decades of representing and remembering decolonization fed into an unremembering by which some key notions were silenced or ignored. The author concludes that historians, or the historical guild, bear much responsibility for the unremembering of decolonization in Dutch collective memory.

    Description: Öffentlich ausgetragene Debatten gehören zu den Grundmerkmalen moderner Gesellschaften. Eine entwickelte »demokratische Streitkultur« gilt mithin geradezu als Voraussetzung für das Funktionieren einer Demokratie. Die dieser Wahrnehmung oft implizit zu Grunde liegende These vom »Strukturwandel der Öffentlichkeit« ist in den letzten Jahrzehnten von Seiten der Geschichtswissenschaft verschiedentlich relativiert worden.Was hatten diese unterschiedlichen Formen des öffentlich ausgetragenen Streits gemeinsam? Inwieweit prägten und strukturierten sie die jeweilige(n) historische(n) Öffentlichkeit(en)? Wie wurde das Phänomen des Streits von den Zeitgenossen jeweils wahrgenommen und bewertet? Lassen sich diesbezüglich signifikante Unterschiede zur Zeit der frühen Reformation oder der Frühaufklärung konstatieren? Gab es so etwas wie eine spezifische Streitkultur des konfessionellen Zeitalters?

    Österreich-Ungarns imperiale Herausforderungen (2021)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Österreich-Ungarn lässt sich nur verstehen, wenn nationale Lebenswelten mit politischen, militärischen, wirtschaftlichen und künstlerischen Beispielen der imperialen Herrschaft verglichen werden. Die Autorinnen und Autoren verbinden theoretische Überlegungen zu Österreich-Ungarn als Imperium bzw. Kolonialmacht mit der Analyse konkreter Beispiele der imperialen Herrschaftspraxis. Ein besonderer Fokus gilt dabei Städten als Laboratorien gebauter, intellektueller und gesellschaftlicher Diskurse über imperiale und koloniale Vorstellungen. Der vorliegende Band präsentiert damit Antworten auf die Frage, wie ein Imperium überhaupt mit den andauernden Herausforderungen von innen und außen umgehen und seine eigene Existenz sichern kann. The book combines theoretical reflections on Austria-Hungary as an empire and colonial power with the analysis of concrete political, military, economic and artistic examples of imperial rule, which come to fore in particular by comparison. A special focus is on cities as laboratories of built, intellectual and social discourses on imperial and colonial ideas. This volume presents answers to the question of how an empire can handle the ongoing challenges from inside and outside and secure its own existence.

    Verstümmelte Körper? (2021)
    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Kastratensänger standen bislang vor allem im Mittelpunkt des Forschungsinteresses der Musik- und Theaterwissenschaften. Dabei wurden vor allem ihr Wirken auf den Bühnen des italienischen Musiktheaters des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts oder die Rezeption der hohen Männerstimme auf das barocke Publikum beleuchtet. Die vorliegende geschichtswissenschaftliche Studie konzentriert sich hingegen auf die Personen als soziale Akteure in der Spätphase dieses Phänomens im 18. und frühen 19. Jahrhundert, wobei exemplarisch vier mitteleuropäische Fürstenhöfe (Wien, München, Dresden, Stuttgart) in den Blick genommen werden.In detaillierten Analysen der Lebenswelten des Hofes und der Residenzstadt fächert die Autorin auf, welchen hohen Stellenwert Kastratensänger innerhalb der höfischen Machtrepräsentation bis zum Schluss besaßen, wie sie sich innerhalb höfischer Anstellungsstrukturen immer wieder erneut positionierten, mit den Bewohnern der Residenzstädte interagierten und welche wichtigen Rollen sie gegenüber Familienangehörigen einnahmen.Insbesondere durch die Untersuchung des individuellen Umgangs mit dem vermeintlichen körperlichen Defizit kann sie zeigen, dass die Annahme, Kastraten seien in der Endphase ihres Bestehens grundsätzlich als defizitäre »verstümmelte Körper« wahrgenommen worden, revidiert werden muss. Auf diese Weise leistet die Autorin einen innovativen Beitrag zur Kultur- und Geschlechtergeschichte am Übergang von der Frühen Neuzeit ins 19. Jahrhundert.

    Description: Neue Techniken zur Informationsübermittlung befördern den Informationsaustausch. Das ist eine für das 20. und 21. Jahrhundert ganz selbstverständliche Feststellung. Genauso selbstverständlich gilt sie aber auch für das 16. Jahrhundert und die Frühe Neuzeit insgesamt. Ein allseits bekanntes Beispiel dafür ist die Verbesserung der Techniken des Buchdrucks durch die Verwendung beweglicher Lettern. Dies führte dazu, dass neue Medien entstanden und sich dauerhaft etablierten, wie z.B. die Flugschrift und die „Neue Zeitung“. Andere bereits bekannte Genera wie Lieder und Predigten erhielten durch die veränderte Kommunikationssituation eine neue Bedeutung in den Auseinandersetzungen der Zeit. Daraus ergaben sich vielfältige Chancen und Heraus­forderungen, denn die Nutzung dieser neuen Medien wie die Transformation bestehender Medienformate und deren flächendeckende Verwendung setzte politische, soziale, juristische und religiöse Veränderungsprozesse in Gang bzw. beförderte sie.Die Beiträge des Sammelbandes möchten diese neuen Kommunikationsformen und -methoden ebenso wie die Veränderungsprozesse für das 16. Jahrhundert ausleuchten. Dies geschieht, indem Wandlungs- und Transformationsprozesse durch die Nutzung bekannter sowie die Schaffung neuer Medienformate, der Umgang mit Meinungsvielfalt und der damit einhergehenden Pluralität an Deutungen des Zeitgeschehens sowie die Entstehung einer neuen Streitkultur und neue Ordnungsversuche analysiert werden.

    Selbstorganisation im Sozialismus (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Diese Arbeit stellt die nationalen Rotkreuzgesellschaften Polens und der Tschechoslowakei als Beispiele für Selbstorganisation im sozialistischen Staat vor. Als Teil der internationalen Rotkreuzbewegung unterschieden sich das Polnische Rote Kreuz (Polski Czerwony Krzyż, PCK) und das Tschechoslowakische Rote Kreuz (Československý Ċervený kříž, ČSČK) von anderen verstaatlichten Massenorganisationen. Sie verknüpften sozialistische Ideologie und humanitäre Prinzipien zu einem »socialist humanitarianism«. Maren Hachmeister untersucht die Arbeit des polnischen und des tschechoslowakischen Roten Kreuzes zwischen 1945 und 1989 insbesondere für die Themen- und Tätigkeitsfelder Suchdienste, Blutspende, Jugend und Eliten. Der historische Vergleich zeigt dabei auf, wann, wo und wie zivilgesellschaftliche Selbstorganisationen für beide Organisationen unter den Vorzeichen des Staatssozialismus möglich war.

    Constructing and Representing Territory in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press | Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In recent political and constitutional history, scholars seldom specify how and why they use the concept of territory. In research on state formation processes and nation building, for instance, the term mostly designates an enclosed geographical area ruled by a central government. Inspired by ideas from political geographers, this book explores the layered and constantly changing meanings of territory in late medieval and early modern Europe before cartography and state formation turned boundaries and territories into more fixed (but still changeable) geographical entities. Its central thesis is that analysing the notion of territory in a premodern setting involves analysing territorial practices: practices that relate people and power to space(s). The book not only examines the construction and spatial structure of premodern territories but also explores their perception and representation through the use of a broad range of sources: from administrative texts to maps, from stained glass windows to chronicles.

    Medieval Saints and Modern Screens (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This ground-breaking book brings theoretical perspectives from twenty-first century media, film, and cultural studies to medieval hagiography. Medieval Saints and Modern Screens stakes the claim for a provocative new methodological intervention: consideration of hagiography as media. More precisely, hagiography is most productively understood as cinematic media. Medieval mystical episodes are made intelligible to modern audiences through reference to the filmic - the language, form, and lived experience of cinema. Similarly, reference to the realm of the mystical affords a means to express the disconcerting physical and emotional effects of watching cinema. Moreover, cinematic spectatorship affords, at times, a (more or less) secular experience of visionary transcendence: an 'agape-ic encounter'. The medieval saint's visions of God are but one pole of a spectrum of visual experience which extends into our present multi-media moment. We too conjure godly visions: on our smartphones, on the silver screen, and on our TVs and laptops. This book places contemporary pop-culture media - such as blockbuster movie The Dark Knight, Kim Kardashian West's social media feeds, and the outputs of online role-players in Second Life - in dialogue with a corpus of thirteenth-century Latin biographies, 'Holy Women of Liège'. In these texts, holy women see God, and see God often. Their experiences fundamentally orient their life, and offer the women new routes to knowledge, agency, and belonging. For the holy visionaries of Liège, as with us modern 'seers', visions are physically intimate, ideologically overloaded spaces. Through theoretically informed close readings, Medieval Saints and Modern Screens reveals the interconnection of decidedly 'old' media - medieval textualities - and artefacts of our 'new media' ecology, which all serve as spaces in which altogether human concerns are brought before the contemporary culture's eyes.Read Alicia Spencer-Hall's keynote paper 'Hagiography, Media, and the Politics of Visibility' from the Gender and Medieval Studies conference in Oxford on her blog Medieval She Wrote.

    Description: "The Jewish Orphanage in Leiden was the last one of 8 such care homes to open its doors in The Netherlands before the Second World War. After spending almost 39 years in an old and utterly inadequate building in Leiden’s city centre, the inauguration in 1929 of a brand-new building, shown on the front cover, was the start of a remarkably productive and prosperous period. The building still stands there, proudly but sadly, to this day: the relatively happy period lasted less than 14 years. On Wednesday evening, 17th March 1943, the Leiden Police, under German instructions, closed down the Orphanage and delivered 50 children and 9 staff to the Leiden railway station, from where they were brought to Transit Camp Westerbork in the Northeast of the country. Two boys were released from Westerbork thanks to tireless efforts of a neighbour in Leiden; one young woman survived Auschwitz, and one young girl escaped to Palestine via Bergen-Belsen. The 55 others were deported to Sobibor, not one of them survived. Some 168 children lived in the new building at one time or another between August 1929 and March 1943. This book reconstructs life in the orphanage based on the many stories and photographs which they left us. It is dedicated to the memory of those who perished in the holocaust, but also to those who survived. Without them this book could not have been written."

    Virtue Ethics and Education from Late Antiquity to the Eighteenth Century (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press

    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: This book argues that premodern societies were characterized by the quest for “virtue.” The concept of virtue, complicated and much fought-over, permeated society, encouraging wisdom, courage, and justice, while simultaneously legitimizing social hierarchies based on sex and nationality. By examining pedagogical texts, rituals, performances, and images, this book illuminates the evolution of virtue through time, helping readers understand the guiding principles of historical action.

Dieser Band stellt die vielfältigen Übersetzungsleistungen im frühneuzeitlichen Umgang mit Frieden vor. Friedensverträge wurden übersetzt, ediert und gedeutet, die Ansprüche der Vertragspartner moderiert. Gerade in »zwischenstaatlichen« Friedensprozessen mussten differente politische und rechtliche Positionen in unterschiedlichen Sprachen präsentiert werden. Systematisch untersucht der Sammelband das Ringen um die Sprache, die kommunikativen Hintergründe vormoderner Friedensprozesse sowie den wissenschaftlichen, literarischen und medialen Umgang mit Frieden und frühneuzeitlichen Friedensverträgen.

    Description: Der zweisprachige Sammelband vereinigt zum Teil bahnbrechende Ergebnisse einer interdisziplinären Forschungstagung, deren Beiträge sozial-, wirtschafts-, kultur- und kirchengeschichtliche Aspekte der Frühneuzeit im Karpatenbogen aufgreifen. Basierend auf vielfach erstmals ausgewerteten Quellen bearbeiten die Beiträge aktuelle Fragestellungen und Forschungshorizonte zur Interdependenz von sozialen, ökonomischen, kulturellen und religiösen Phänomenen im Karpatenbogen der Frühen Neuzeit, in dem die Osmanen der international dominante politische Faktor wurden. Transformationsprozesse wurden angestoßen durch Bevölkerungs- und Militärbewegungen, ökonomische, politische und religiös-mentale Umwälzungen, die zwischen opportunistischer Anpassung und rebellierendem Widerstand oszillierten und entsprechende politische Maßnahmen und Gegenreaktionen hervorriefen. Dabei wird die bislang geltende Forschungsmeinung zur Toleranzgeschichte Siebenbürgens in Frage gestellt und völlig neu bewertet.

    Governing Cemeteries (2021)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book compares state responses to Muslim and humanist burial needs in three European countries. Such accommodation is typically understood in terms of national models. Van den Breemer, however, shows that policy responses in fact follow distinctive types of logic between the various levels of governance, and that material solutions matter as well. While indeed large legal and discursive national differences between states remain, in praxis they do the same. In a departure from this major finding, the book outlines a methodologically more coherent research agenda for the comparative study of religion, secularism, society, and state.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Women and Power at the French Court, 1483—1563 explores the ways in which a range of women “as consorts, regents, mistresses, factional power players, attendants at court, or as objects of courtly patronage" wielded power in order to advance individual, familial, and factional agendas at the early sixteenth-century French court. Spring-boarding from the burgeoning scholarship of gender, the political, and power in early modern Europe, the collection provides a perspective from the French court, from the reigns of Charles VIII to Henri II, a time when the French court was a renowned center of culture and at which women played important roles. Cross-disciplinary in its perspectives, these essays by historians, art and literary scholars investigate the dynamic operations of gendered power in political acts, recognized status as queens and regents, ritualized behaviors such as gift-giving, educational coteries, and through social networking, literary and artistic patronage, female authorship, and epistolary strategies.

    Description: Im Sommer 1914 schickte der russische Agrarwissenschaftler und Bodenkundler Konstantin Glinka ein Manuskript nach Berlin. Es enthielt die erste an eine ausländische Leserschaft gerichtete Darstellung der russischen Bodenkunde, einer frühökologischen Lehre vom Boden, die auf der Erforschung der Schwarzerde fußte. Dies war der Beginn einer Erfolgsgeschichte: Die russische Bodenkunde reüssierte in der Zwischenkriegszeit in Europa und den USA. Nach 1945 wurde sie zu einem Klassiker der modernen Agrar- und Umweltwissenschaften.Jan Arend erzählt die Geschichte eines Wissenstransfers von Ost nach West. Er folgt Wissenschaftlern, Manuskripten und Begriffen – von den Schwarzerde-Provinzen des Russischen Reichs über die Podien internationaler Konferenzen bis in die Kabinette von amerikanischen Agrarplanern und Bodenschätzern in NS-Deutschland.

    Description: Die Frage, ob, wann und wie die internationale Gemeinschaft auf Verletzungen humanitärer Normen und damit verbundene humanitäre Krisen reagieren soll, gehört zweifellos zu den vieldiskutierten Themen auf der Agenda der heutigen internationalen Politik. Allerdings tauchte diese Problematik nicht erst am Ende des 20. und zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts plötzlich aus dem Nichts auf, sondern bereits im Verlauf des »langen 19. Jahrhunderts« setzte man sich kontrovers mit dieser Problematik auseinander. Anhand ausgewählter Fallbeispiele wie dem Kampf gegen den Sklavenhandel (1807–1890), den Militärinterventionen der europäischen Großmächte zur humanitären Nothilfe für christliche Minderheiten im Osmanischen Reich (1827–1878) oder dem Eingreifen der Vereinigten Staaten in den kubanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg (1898) untersucht Fabian Klose die militärische Praktik und die völkerrechtlichen Debatten zum Schutz humanitärer Normen gewaltsam einzugreifen.

    Description: Das Mediensystem der politischen Publizistik im frühmodernen Deutschland war keineswegs eine obrigkeitliche Stiftung, sondern entwickelte sich in wechselseitiger Beziehung zu politischen Entwicklungsprozessen zu zunehmender Selbständigkeit. Dabei profitierte es davon, stets auf eigene, am Markt gewonnene Finanzmittel zurückgreifen zu können und von staatlichen Transferleistungen weitgehend unabhängig zu sein. Verleger und Redakteure nahmen das »Agenda-Setting« nach eigenen Kriterien vor, eher vom Nachrichtenwert als von staatlichen Sprachregelungen geleitet. Die Leserschaft bestand zunächst aus der höfischen Machtelite und den werdenden und arrivierten Gelehrten, reichte jedoch schon im 17. Jahrhundert darüber hinaus, wobei die Rezeption durch die Ungelehrten das gesamte 18. Jahrhundert hindurch anwuchs.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Seit der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts wird im politisch-gesellschaftlichen Kontext der eigentlich religiös konnotierte Begriff „Versöhnung“ immer häufiger zur Beschreibung von Konfliktlösungsstrategien benutzt. Doch was bedeutet Versöhnung bezogen auf Politik und Gesellschaft? Welche Faktoren sind relevant für Versöhnungsprozesse? Womit lassen sich Erfolge, aber auch Hindernisse und Rückschläge auf dem Weg der Versöhnung erklären? In dem vorliegenden Band gehen internationale Forscherinnen und Forscher aus Geschichtswissenschaft, Politikwissenschaft, Soziologie und Theologie diesen Fragen nach. In ihren Beiträgen wird Versöhnung auf zwei Ebenen reflektiert. Auf der ersten Ebene handelt es sich um übergreifende Analysen von Faktoren, die Versöhnungsprozesse beeinflussen. Auf der zweiten Ebene werden bestimmte Aspekte von Versöhnungsprozessen an einschlägigen Fallbeispielen aus dem Kontext des deutsch-französischen und russisch-finnischen Verhältnisses, des ehemaligen Jugoslawiens, Süd- und Nordkorea, der DDR und Südafrika veranschaulicht.Alle Beiträge machen deutlich, dass, obwohl unterschiedlichen Versöhnungsprozessen bestimmte Elemente gemeinsam sind, Versöhnung als ein sich dynamisch wandelnder, immer kontextgebundener Aushandlungsprozess erscheint, der multilateral von Akteuren aus Kirchen, Politik und Gesellschaft getragen wird.

    Description: The fate of cultural property extracted during the Nazi era has increasingly been the subject of provenance research since the 1990s. This volume combines the latest findings of provenance research in libraries and provides contributions to the history of the library during the Nazi era. Provenance research is almost only reported in the media when it concerns valuable works of art. For books, it is relatively difficult: it is mostly about mass-produced goods without great material value and the books have often reached their locations after hard-to-find odysseys. Nevertheless, more and more libraries deal with their Nazi past. Library historian Jürgen Babendreier puts it in a nutshell: "In the robbed books, history comes to life, invisible remembrance continues, historical responsibility becomes present."

    Description: Die historische Forschung zur frühneuzeitlichen jüdischen Fürsprache, die für die Existenz aschkenasischer Gemeinden von herausragender Bedeutung war, beruht bislang häufig auf christlichen Quellen. Die Gemeindeprotokollbücher (hebr. pinkasim) blieben dagegen weitgehend unberücksichtigt. Dabei dokumentieren viele von ihnen ausführlich die diplomatischen Kontakte der Gemeindevorsteher oder der von ihnen ernannten Fürsprecher zu obrigkeitlichen Behörden und Herrschern auf lokaler wie landesweiter Ebene. Die hier erstmals edierten 107 Einträge aus pinkasim von Gemeinden in den Niederlanden, Deutschland, Österreich, Tschechien, Polen und Russland bieten einen repräsentativen Überblick über das Agieren frühneuzeitlicher aschkenasischer Fürsprecher sowie über ihre Handlungsspielräume innerhalb des restriktiven Rechtsrahmens. Die Dokumente werden in ihrer meist hebräischen oder jiddischen Originalsprache mit kommentierten deutschen Übersetzungen sowie ausführlichen Einleitungen präsentiert.

    Christianity and National Identity in Twentieth-Century Europe (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This collection explores how Christian individuals and institutions combined the topics of faith and national identity in twentieth-century Europe. “National identity” is understood in a broad sense that includes discourses of citizenship, narratives of cultural or linguistic belonging, or “national” characteristics. It considers various geographical contexts, and takes into account processes of cross-national exchange and transfer. It shows how national and denominational identities were often mutually constitutive, at times leading to a strongly exclusionary stance against “other” national or religious groups. In different circumstances, religiously minded thinkers critiqued nationalism, emphasising the universalist strains of their faith, with varying degrees of success. Throughout the century church officials and lay Christians have had to come to terms with the relationship between their national and “European” identities within the processes of Europeanisation.

    Description: Die nordwestdeutschen Fürstbischöfe (Köln, Münster, Osnabrück, Paderborn und Hildesheim) bewegten sich in einem komplexen Bedingungsgefüge zwischen landesherrlicher Stellung, reichsfürstlicher Position, geistlichem Amt und der Familie. Die Arbeit zeigt, dass viele der Bischöfe ihr geistliches Amt durchaus ernst nahmen und persönlich weihten, firmten oder ihr Bistum visitierten. Deutlich wird aber auch, wo die Grenzen der persönlichen Ausübung des bischöflichen Amtes lagen und welche Konstellationen die persönliche Amtsausübung begünstigten und welche sie eher behinderten. Damit wird die bisherige Annahme, die geistlichen Fürsten überließen ihre geistlichen Aufgaben vollständig ihren Weihbischöfen und konzentrierten sich allein auf ihre fürstliche Stellung, überwunden. Bettina Braun untersucht erstmals systematisch und vergleichend zentrale Bereiche des fürstbischöflichen Handelns, ohne deren Kenntnis man den Fürstbischöfen in der Endphase des Alten Reichs nicht gerecht werden kann.

    Sport under Unexpected Circumstances (2021)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Sport was an integral part of life in camps during the twentieth century, even in Nazi concentrations camps or in the Soviet Gulag. Traditionally perceived as a symbol of equality, play, and peacefulness, sport under such unexpected circumstances irritates most observers, back then and today. This volume studies the irritating fact of sport in penal and internment camps as an important insight into the history of camps. The authors enquire into case studies of sport being played in different forms of camps around the globe and throughout the twentieth century. They challenge our understanding of camps, question the dichotomy of insiders and outsiders, inner-camp hierarchies, and the everyday experience of violence. This fresh perspective complements the existing camp studies and gives way for the subjectivity of camp inmates and their action.

    Cycling Pathways (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: In an effort to fight climate change, many cities try to boost their cycling levels. They often look towards the Dutch for guidance. However, historians have only begun to uncover how and why the Netherlands became the premier cycling country of the world. Why were Dutch cyclists so successful in their fight for a place on the road? Cycling Pathways explores the long political struggle that culminated in today’s high cycling levels. Delving into the archives, it uncovers the important role of social movements and shows in detail how these interacted with national, provincial, and urban engineers and policymakers to govern the distribution of road space and construction of cycling infrastructure. It discusses a wide range of topics, ranging from activists to engineering committees, from urban commuters to recreational cyclists and from the early 1900s to today in order to uncover the long and all-but-forgotten history of Dutch cycling governance.

    Accommodating the Individual (2021)
    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: How did the Greeks respond to the experiences of uncertainty that they so acutely made in the aftermath of Alexander the Great's world-changing conquest of the Persian Empire? How were old values upheld and reshaped? And how did the societies of Greek cities and royal courts accommodate the overwhelming newfound power of Greek individuals? By developing a custom methodology, this book tries to shed new light on the complex textuality of the period of the Diadochi, the successors of Alexander. In four case studies, new readings are presented of Theophrastus Characters and Xenophon's Cyropaedia, but also of the substantial early Hellenistic anecdotal material, as well as the Colossus of Rhodes. The studies are united by an interest in how these texts cast the relationships between individuals and how they constructed various media of interrelation, such as money, friendship, women and the divine. Reading these texts on these terms reveals how values were renegotiated through paradoxes and inverted stories that subtly reshaped the utopias of the 4th century BCE. Overall, the study's hypothesis is that this particular brand of social storytelling contributed to the stabilisation of the nascent Hellenistic world by providing new visions of society capable of accommodating individual power and offering a new sense of control and place.

    Glauben im Hinterland (2021)
    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Das Buch untersucht Religion auf dem Balkan am Beispiel serbisch-orthodoxer Gemeinschaften in der Herzegowina – in einer überwiegend gebirgigen, ländlichen und religiös vielfältigen Region. Hier lebte man religiösen Glauben im 19. Jahrhundert vor allem in den Familien. Geistliche und die Kirchenorganisation spielten nur eine untergeordnete, nicht selten ungeliebte Rolle. Erst die gesellschaftlichen Modernisierungen ab der zweiten Hälfte des Jahrhunderts, vor allem durch die habsburgische Verwaltung ab 1878, formten Religion zu einem von kirchlichen Institutionen geprägten und konfessionell klar abgegrenzten Gesellschaftssystem. Dadurch gerieten zum einen die Verhältnisse innerhalb der Glaubensgemeinschaft in Bewegung und wurden teils heftig ausgetragen – zwischen Laien, Geistlichen, der Kirchenleitung und dem Staat. Zum anderen veränderten sich aber auch die interreligiösen Beziehungen und wurden stärker normiert und seltener situativ ausgehandelt.Religion war von grundlegender Bedeutung für imperiale Herrschaft, nicht zuletzt als Gegengewicht zu nationalen Bestrebungen. Im Falle der Serben wirkte dabei imperial geregelte Religion über ihre Organisationen und ihre Geistlichen fördernd für die Nationalbewegung. Habsburg reagierte daher seit Beginn des Ersten Weltkriegs mit harter Repression gegen serbisch-orthodoxe Priester, kirchliche Laien und Kircheninstitutionen. Für die häufige Verschmelzung von Religion und Nation spielten in Südosteuropa gerade die großen Reiche eine entscheidende Rolle.

    Die Erfindung der Bevölkerungspolitik (2021)
    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Die Bevölkerungsgröße wurde erst im Laufe der Frühen Neuzeit zu einem Thema der Politik. Politische Theoretiker in Deutschland übernahmen um 1600 die in Italien entwickelte Vorstellung, der Staat müsse sich um die Bevölkerungsentwicklung kümmern. Die Forderung nach einer expansiven Bevölkerungspolitik kam somit schon vor den Verwüstungen des Dreißigjährigen Krieges auf. Diese zuerst in gelehrten Werken vertretene Idee setzte sich im Laufe des 17. Jahrhunderts immer mehr durch und wurde zu einem Kernbestand des Kameralismus. Daraus entwickelte sich schließlich der Populationismus des 18. Jahrhunderts, der eine mit allen Mitteln forcierte Bevölkerungsvergrößerung forderte und den Erfolg jeglicher Politik allein am demografischen Wachstum maß. Justus Nipperdey erforscht mit seiner Arbeit erstmals die Entstehung des bevölkerungspolitischen Konzepts im Italien des 16. Jahrhunderts, seine Übernahme in die politische Theorie im Alten Reich und seine Verbreitung von den gelehrten lateinischen Politikkompendien in deutschsprachige Traktate.

    Description: "Historical research into disasters and disaster processing has expanded enormously in recent years. The threat of climate disasters and pandemics is raising awareness that disasters have a major impact on community development. The period 1755-1918 also saw numerous disasters that affected Dutch society, such as the Leiden gunpowder disaster of 1807, several cholera outbreaks and large-scale river floods. Volcanic eruptions and flooding were recurring phenomena in the colonies. And then there were major international disasters, such as the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 and the Spanish flu in 1918. Crisis and Catastrophe examines the influence of these catastrophes on belief in God, solidarity and charity, and local and national identity formation. Attention is also paid to the cultural representation of disasters in literature, paintings and memorial books."

    Conquérir et gouverner la Sicile islamique aux XIe et XIIe siècles (2021)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Conquering Sicily from the middle of the XIth century, Hauteville are the first to set up a government that is defined as a Christian and, at least in part, from Latin, while exercising its prerogatives at a predominantly Muslim population, Arabic speaking. To do this, they gradually developed instruments of government, but also became the patrons of a cultural production that has aroused admiration and comments until today. This work is presented as an investigation into the different dimensions of the power of Hauteville from the conquest of Sicily at the end of the 12th century (language policy, state building, patronage, but also control of populations and territory). It aims to demystify the representations that we often have of this long century of "tolerance", but also to deconstruct the idea that the failure of the dynasty was written in advance. He nevertheless postulates that the “Norman” construction in Sicily remains original and innovative and that it provides useful elements of comparison for all those who analyze situations of conquest and minority government in a multicultural context.

    Sex and Drugs before Rock 'n' Roll (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Sex and Drugs Before Rock ’n’ Roll is a fascinating volume that presents an engaging overview of what it was like to be young and male in the Dutch Golden Age. Here, well-known cohorts of Rembrandt are examined for the ways in which they expressed themselves by defying conservative values and norms. This study reveals how these young men rebelled, breaking from previous generations: letting their hair grow long, wearing colorful clothing, drinking excessively, challenging city guards, being promiscuous, smoking, and singing lewd songs. Cogently argued, this study paints a compelling portrait of the youth culture of the Dutch Golden Age, at a time when the rising popularity of print made dissemination of new cultural ideas possible, while rising incomes and liberal attitudes created a generation of men behaving badly.
    Description: Dit boek richt zich op één generatie van jonge mannen die werd geboren rond 1600 en volwassen werd tijdens het hoogtepunt van de Gouden Eeuw. Van bekende generatiegenoten, zoals Rembrandt van Rijn, wordt onderzocht hoe ze uiting gaven aan hun jongerencultuur en mannelijkheid. Roberts onderzoekt de mannelijkheid van deze jonge mannen op het gebied van uiterlijk, drinken, drugs, het gebruik van geweld, hun seksualiteit en hun manier van vrijetijdsinvulling. Hij laat zien hoe zij zich afzetten tegen de vorige generatie onder andere door hun lang haren, kleurrijke kleding, promiscuiteit en overmatig drankgebruik.

    Description: Es gehört zu den Errungenschaften der Neuzeit, einer Vermischung von Kirche und Staat zu wehren. Weder soll die Kirche theokratisch das politische Gemeinwesen bestimmen noch der Staat totalitär über die Kirche herrschen. Kirche und Staat sollen getrennt sein. Deutschland, Frankreich und die USA versuchen auf je andere Weise, diese notwendige Trennung von Kirche und Staat zu realisieren. Was war der Grund für die unterschiedlichen Modelle? Worin liegen die Stärken, worin die Schwächen des jeweiligen Modells? In jüngster Zeit stellen sich diese Fragen neu, nicht nur angesichts der Verortung der islamischen Religion in den westlichen Gesellschaften.Für einen sinnvollen Vergleich der drei Länder nimmt der Band eine doppelte Perspektive ein: Auf der einen Seite wird historisch danach gefragt, wie es zu der spezifischen Form des jeweiligen Staat-Kirche-Verhältnisses gekommen ist. Auf der anderen Seite werden Probleme und Chancen des jeweiligen Modells diskutiert, wobei Veränderungen und Herausforderungen der jüngsten Zeit besonders ins Gewicht fallen.Der Band dokumentiert die Vorträge der XIV. Dietrich Bonhoeffer Vorlesung 2010 in Mainz.

    Divided Dreamworlds? (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: While the divide between capitalism and communism, embodied in the image of the Iron Curtain, seemed to be as wide and definitive as any cultural rift, Giles Scott-Smith, Joes Segal, and Peter Romijn have compiled a selection of essays on how culture contributed to the blurring of ideological boundaries between the East and the West. This important and diverse volume presents fascinating insights into the tensions, rivalries, and occasional cooperation between the two blocs, with essays that represent the cutting edge of Cold War Studies and analyze aesthetic preferences and cultural phenomena as various as interior design in East and West Germany; the Soviet stance on genetics; US cultural diplomacy during and after the Cold War; and the role of popular music as the universal cultural ambassador. An illuminating and wide-ranging survey of interrelated collective dreams from both sides of the Iron Curtain, Divided Dreamworlds? has a place on the bookshelf of any modern historian.
    Description: Hoe heeft cultuur bijgedragen aan het wegvallen van ideologische grenzen tussen Oost en West? De auteurs analyseren onder meer het interieurontwerp in Oost- en West-Duitsland, de Russische visie op genetica, de Amerikaanse culturele diplomatie tijdens en na de Koude Oorlog en de rol van popmuziek. Deze vernieuwende studie legt enkele opvallende paradoxen bloot met betrekking tot de productie en de beleving van cultuur in Oost en West en biedt fascinerende inkijkjes in de spanningen, rivaliteit en schaarse momenten van samenwerking tussen de twee machtsblokken.

Die Untersuchung deutscher SklavereigegnerInnen erweitert und verändert nicht nur den Blick auf die Abolitionsbewegung als grenzüberschreitendes historisches Phänomen, sondern auch auf den deutschen Raum als Teil des sogenannten atlantischen Hinterlands.

    Das andere Christentum (2021)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Bereits im Jahre 1534 reiste ein äthiopischer Mönch nach Wittenberg, um dort Kontakt mit Martin Luther und Philipp Melanchthon aufzunehmen. Der daraus resultierte theologische Dialog markierte den Anfang einer Verflechtungsgeschichte von äthiopisch-orthodoxem Christentum und europäischem Protestantismus.Das andere Christentum erschließt erstmals die vielfältigen Wechselwirkungen von äthiopisch-orthodoxem Christentum und europäischem Protestantismus im Zeitraum vom 16. bis zum frühen 20. Jahrhundert. Damit bietet es einen neuen Blick sowohl auf die afrikanische als auch auf die europäische Kirchengeschichte der Neuzeit.Das Werk zeigt beispielhaft, auf welche Weise konfessionell und kulturell divergierende Varianten des Christentums kontinentübergreifend miteinander verknüpft waren, und leistet somit einen grundlegenden Beitrag zur globalen Christentumsgeschichte und der Interkulturellen Theologie. Methodisch knüpft die Arbeit hierbei an den Ansatz der Histoire croisée an und macht ihn für eine transkonfessionelle Kirchengeschichtsschreibung fruchtbar.

    Description: While the claim that the Greeks are a seafaring people can be qualified, it is nonetheless undeniable that the sea represents a major geographic aspect of the ancient Greek world. It is therefore hardly surprising that this element has permeated beliefs and cults, from the Atlantic to the Persian Gulf and particularly in Magna Graecia. This work thus explores the ways in which maritime culture influenced the major figures of the Greek pantheon, the Olympian deities, from Homer to the end of the Hellenistic period. In this regard, he tempers the importance accorded too often a priorito Poseidon. All sources were required in such an investigation: literary, epigraphic, archaeological, iconographic, numismatic. By analyzing beliefs, the topography of sanctuaries, worship practices both on board and on land and maritime votive offerings (anchors and boats), it constitutes an essential tool for the study of Greek religion as well as for that of naval archeology.

    Medieval Communities and the Mad (2021)
    Amsterdam University Press | Amsterdam University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: The concept of madness as a challenge to communities lies at the core of legal sources. This book considers how communal networks, ranging from the locale to the realm, responded to people who were considered mad. The madness of individuals played a role in engaging communities with legal mechanisms and proto-national identity constructs, as petitioners sought the king's mercy as an alternative to local justice. The resulting narratives about the mentally ill in late medieval France constructed madness as an inability to live according to communal rules. Although such texts defined madness through acts that threatened social bonds, those ties were reaffirmed through the medium of the remission letter. The composers of the letters presented madness as a communal concern, situating the mad within the household, where care could be provided. These mad were usually not expelled but integrated, often through pilgrimage, surveillance, or chains, into their kin and communal relationships.

    Die europäische Integration und die Kirchen, Teil 2 (2021)
    Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Das Institut für Europäische Geschichte Mainz und die Johannes Gutenberg-Universität veranstalteten im akademischen Jahr 2010/2011 im Rahmen des Studienprogramms des gemeinsamen Graduiertenkollegs »Die christlichen Kirchen vor der Herausforderung ›Europa‹ (1890 bis zur Gegenwart)« eine Vorlesungsreihe, die unter dem Titel »Die Kirchen in Europa: Denker und Querdenker«. Die Vorträge gingen der Frage nach, wie sich kirchennahe Organisationen und ihre Entscheidungsträger zum Gedanken einer Einigung Europas positionierten und sich dem Prozess der europäischen Integration stellten. Der Fokus der Reihe richtete sich – als Pendant zu der ersten Ringvorlesung, die 2009–2010 stattfand und in einem Band »Die europäische Integration und die Kirchen. Akteure und Rezipienten« dokumentiert wurde – auf Persönlichkeiten und Gruppierungen, die in die Öffentlichkeit hineinwirkten und deren Meinungsbildung mitgestalteten. Der Band versammelt acht Beiträge von Kirchenhistorikern, Historikern und Politikwissenschaftlern. Die Beiträge decken einen langen Zeitraum ab und beleuchten in Fallbeispielen oder überblicksartig die Zeit vom ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert bis an die Schwelle der Gegenwart. Trotz eines gewissen Schwerpunkts im deutschsprachigen Raum wird der Blick auch nach Estland und Italien gelenkt. In Betracht kommen Gruppen, wie politische Parteien; Konfessionskirchen, wie z. B. das Luthertum, und Institutionen, wie der Heilige Stuhl. Vorgestellt werden aber auch und vor allem Einzelpersonen und deren Haltung, wobei auch hier das Spektrum sehr weit ist und von der »Prominenz« bis hin zu weniger bekannten »Einzelgängern« reicht.

    Question d'honneur (2021)

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Is it legitimate to use the modern notion of “honor” in connection with the ancient Roman Republic? Did the Romans of that time follow a strict code of conduct? On what did they base social prestige? What marks of distinction did they use and for what purposes? These are some of the questions this book attempts to answer. To do this, the author analyzes three Roman notions, honos , honestum and honestas, which cover socio-political objects (marks of honor, prestige, public office) and moral data (dignity of conduct, good ethics). This diversity is apprehended in the work by a plural approach, relating to semantics, sociology and the history of ideas. The preliminary study of the meaning of these terms in the Latin texts thus leads to the examination of the practices of homage and honor in the life of the Romans. Then confronting practice with theory, the work examines the way in which these three notions were employed as literary themes, ideological instruments and philosophical concepts among the Latin authors of the Republic.

Die Beiträge beleuchten das Innenleben der Organe, die die Interessen der katholischen Kirche in Brüssel vertreten. Sie schlagen damit Schneisen in ein Forschungsfeld, das noch weitgehend unbearbeitet ist, dessen Relevanz sich aber jüngst in der Diskussion über den Gottesbezug in der Präambel des Europäischen Verfassungsvertrags gezeigt hat.

    Die politische Aufgabe von Religion (2021)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Das Verhältnis von Religion und Politik ist in den vergangenen Jahren verstärkt in den Fokus der Forschung gerückt. Die Autoren dieses Bandes widmen sich diesem Verhältnis unter einer besonderen Zuspitzung. Ihre Beiträge analysieren, inwiefern es zum Selbstverständnis von Religionen gehört, einen Beitrag zur Gestaltung der gesellschaftlichen und politischen Wirklichkeit leisten zu sollen. Mit dieser Problematik verknüpft ist eine zentrale Frage: Wie erklärt und wie äußert sich der Anspruch von Religionen, eine »politische Aufgabe« zu besitzen? Im Fokus stehen die drei großen monotheistischen Religionen Judentum, Christentum und Islam, wobei für das Christentum zusätzlich die konfessionellen Differenzen in den Blick kommen, die zu ganz unterschiedlichen Einschätzungen der politischen Aufgabe des Christentums geführt haben.Für alle drei monotheistischen Religionen nehmen die Beiträger jeweils eine Doppelperspektive ein: historische Beispiele erhellen die jeweiligen Bedingungen und Kontexte für religiös motivierte Teilhabe an politischer Gestaltung und Verantwortung; Systematische Entfaltungen versuchen eine Einbettung dieser Beispiele in die spezifischen Denkhorizonte der jeweiligen Religionen. Das so erhobene politische Selbstverständnis der Religionen wird schließlich mit der Fremdwahrnehmung dieses Selbstverständnisses aus nichtreligiöser Perspektive kontrastiert.

    Description: Anna Jurascheks Buch befasst sich mit der Idee des Bildes im Werk des polnisch-jüdischen Künstlers, Schriftstellers und Essayisten Bruno Schulz, der sein Hauptwerk in der Zwischenkriegszeit in polnischer Sprache verfasst hat. Im Kontext der gesellschaftlichen und technischen Veränderungen um die Jahrhundertwende untersucht die Autorin Bruno Schulz` auffälligen und eigenwilligen Umgang mit Bildern, der sich sowohl im plastischen als auch im literarischen Werk sowie in der Verflechtung beider Ausdrucksmittel zeigt. Zur Analyse und Bewertung werden einerseits Untersuchungen zu Bildern und ihrer kulturellen Funktion in der Zwischenkriegszeit herangezogen, wie die wegweisenden Aufsätze von Walter Benjamin und Gisèle Freund, andererseits neuere bildwissenschaftliche Theorien wie jene von Hans Belting und Gottfried Boehm.

    Between Babylon and Jerusalem (2021)

    Description: Simon Rawidowicz (1896–1957) was one of the most innovative, if also underappreciated, Jewish thinkers of the twentieth century. He was a partner in conversation with many of the leading Jewish cultural or political figures of the first half of the century including David Ben-Gurion, Chaim Nahman Bialik, Martin Buber, and Simon Dubnow. His distinctive theory of "Babylon and Jerusalem" remains one of the most interesting formulations of Jewish national ideology, as it sought to mediate between the poles of Zionism and Diasporism. This volume captures Rawidowicz’s multiple and overlapping concerns – both scholarly and contemporary – as well as the distinctive rich timbre of his Hebrew style. All those interested in modern Jewish thought, the relationship between Israel and Diaspora, the recurrent "Arab Question" in Zionist and Israeli politics, and the state of Jewish people will find benefit in this collection of new or hardly known texts from the pen of Simon Rawidowicz.
