Book Description
Early modern European monarchies legitimized their rule through dynasty and religion where ideally the divine right of the ruler corresponded with the official confession of the territory. It has thus been assumed that at princely courts only a single confession was present. However, the reality of the confessionalization paradigm commonly involved more than one faith. Religious Plurality at Princely Courts explores the reverberations of bi-confessional or multi-confessional intra-Christian settings at courts on dynastic, symbolic, diplomatic, artistic, and theological levels addressing a significant neglected understanding of interreligious dialogue, religious change, and confessional blending. Incorporating perspectives across European studies such as domestic and international politics, dynastic strategies, the history of ideas, women’s and gender history, and material culture, the contributions to this volume highlight the intersections of religious plurality at court.

Book Description
Queens Consort, Cultural Transfer and European Politics examines the roles that queens consort played in dynastic politics and cultural transfer between their natal and marital courts during the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. This collection of essays analyses the part that these queens played in European politics, showing how hard and soft power, high politics and cultural influences, cannot be strictly separated. It shows that the root of these consorts’ power lay in their dynastic networks and the extent to which they cultivated them. The consorts studied in this book come from territories such as Austria, Braunschweig, Hanover, Poland, Portugal, Prussia and Saxony and travel to, among other places, Britain, Naples, Russia, Spain and Sweden. The various chapters address different types of cultural manifestation, among them collecting, portraiture, panegyric poetry, libraries, theatre and festivals, learning, genealogical literature and architecture. The volume significantly shifts the direction of scholarship by moving beyond a focus on individual historical women to consider ‘queens consort’ as a category, making it valuable reading for students and scholars of early modern gender and political history.

Book Description
Die brennende Aktualität des Themas "Krieg" bedarf keiner Erläuterung. Doch sollte die bedrückende Realität den Blickwinkel auf dieses Phänomen keineswegs ausschließlich auf die gegenwärtige Situation beschränken. Wesentliche Aspekte - insbesondere grundlegende, langdauernde Faktoren und Strukturen - würden so nicht wahrgenommen. In dem von Hans-Henning Kortüm herausgegebenen Buch wird nicht nur der ganze Zeitraum des Mittelalters berücksichtigt, sondern es wird auch die Fülle der thematischen und methodischen Zugangsweisen demonstriert. Besonderes Gewicht kommt dabei dem Bemühen zu, die Chancen eines interdisziplinären Zugangs zum Thema zu nutzen: Die einzelnen Beiträge verfolgen historische, philosophische, kunsthistorische, wissenschaftshistorische und politikwissenschaftliche Fragestellungen. Der gemeinsame Ausgangspunkt ist in der Erkenntnis begründet, dass eine historische Betrachtung Krieg als kulturelles Phänomen ernst nehmen muss.
