    Read the speech online: www.bundespraesident.de Page 1 of 6 Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier at the inauguration of the Robert-Blum-Saal with artworks depicting Germany’s history of democracy at Schloss Bellevue on 9 November 2020 According to legend, the last words of Robert Blum were “I die for freedom, may my country remember me.” He was executed – shot – by imperial military forces on 9 November 1848, one day before his 41st birthday. The German democrat and champion for freedom, one of the most well-known members of the Frankfurt National Assembly, thus died on a heap of sand in Brigittenau, a Viennese suburb. The bullets ended the life of a man who had fought tirelessly for a Germany unified in justice and in freedom – as a political publicist, publisher and founder of the Schillerverein in Leipzig, as a parliamentarian in the Paulskirche in Frankfurt, and finally with a gun in his hand on the barricades in Vienna. To the very last, Robert Blum fought for a German nation-state in the republican mould, legitimised by parliamentary structures. He campaigned for a brand of democracy in which civil liberties and human rights were accorded to one and all. And he fought for a Europe in which free peoples should live together in peace, from France to Poland and to Hungary. His death on 9 November 1848 marked one of the many turning points in our history. By executing the parliamentarian Robert Blum, the princes and military commanders of the Ancien Régime demonstrated their power and sent an unequivocal message to the Paulskirche National Assembly.

  • The History of Napoleon Buonaparte
    THE HISTORY OF NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE JOHN GIBSON LOCKHART CHAPTER I BIRTH AND PARENTAGE OF NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE—HIS EDUCATION AT BRIENNE AND AT PARIS—HIS CHARACTER AT THIS PERIOD—HIS POLITICAL PREDILECTIONS—HE ENTERS THE ARMY AS SECOND LIEUTENANT OF ARTILLERY—HIS FIRST MILITARY SERVICE IN CORSICA IN 1793. Napoleon Buonaparte was born at Ajaccio on the 15th of August, 1769. The family had been of some distinction, during the middle ages, in Italy; whence his branch of it removed to Corsica, in the troubled times of the Guelphs and Gibellines. They were always considered as belonging to the gentry of the island. Charles, the father of Napoleon, an advocate of considerable reputation, married his mother, Letitia Ramolini, a young woman eminent for beauty and for strength of mind, during the civil war— when the Corsicans, under Paoli, were struggling to avoid the domination of the French. The advocate had espoused the popular side in that contest, and his lovely and high-spirited wife used to attend him through the toils and dangers of his mountain campaigns. Upon the termination of the war, he would have exiled himself along with Paoli; but his relations dissuaded him from this step, and he was afterwards reconciled to the conquering party, and protected and patronised by the French governor of Corsica, the Count de Marbœuff. It is said that Letitia had attended mass on the morning of the 15th of August; and, being seized suddenly on her return, gave birth to the future hero of his age, on a temporary couch covered with tapestry, representing the heroes of the Iliad.

  • Enjoying Country Life to the Full – Only the English Know How to Do That!’: Appreciation of the British Country House by Hungarian Aristocratic Travellers
    This is the Accepted Manuscript version of Fatsar, Kristof (2017) ‘Enjoying country life to the full – only the English know how to do that!’: appreciation of the British country house by Hungarian aristocratic travellers. In: Stobart, Jon, (ed.) Travel and the British country house: cultures, critiques and consumption in the long eighteenth century. U.K. : Manchester University Press. pp. 145-167. ISBN 9781526110329 The full book details can be found at https://manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526110329/ Chapter 7 ‘Enjoying country life to the full – only the English know how to do that!’: appreciation of the British country house by Hungarian aristocratic travellers Kristof Fatsar Introduction Britain was the most attractive new travel destination for Hungarian aristocrats1 towards the end of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century. This phenomenon followed continental fashion, as the achievements of the British agricultural as well as the industrial revolution attracted nobility and professionals from all over the Continent, and from Hungary too, to study the new methods first hand.2 Naturally, different levels of Hungarian society had different agenda when travelling. Country house tourism was an activity pursued with various interests based on the difference in wealth, upbringing, cultural involvement and so on. Nevertheless, it was followed by intellectuals who were more likely to share their experiences with the wider public in written form. In that sense, it is better recorded than the experiences of others who travelled to Britain for commercial or other more down-to-earth purposes. Regrettably, there are no reliable data to judge the percentage of noblemen or intellectuals from the early period of visits to Britain.

  • Viennese Dances of the Strauss Era Vienna, February 5 Th - 11 Th 2012 Grand Strauss Ball February 11 Th 2012 “My Life Is Full of Love
    Hof-Dantzer Hannelore Unfried presents: Viennese Dances of the Strauss Era Vienna, February 5 th - 11 th 2012 Grand Strauss Ball February 11 th 2012 “My life is full of love and joy ...”* We are hugely pleased to announce our vintage dance week in Vienna for the 10th time. Upon the request of many dancers we celebrate this anniversary with the Kör, which was on the program when we started in 2003. This exceptional Hungarian Quadrille, was choreographed in 1842 for 8 couples. We are impressed by the demanding steps, diversity of figures and the charm of Hungarian tunes. The strong desire for national identity and political self- determination can be felt and heard in every step and melody. - The illustration on this invitation is taken from the Kör’s printed the sheet music. It symbolizes our understanding of Viennese dances formed in the multinational state of the Habsbourg monarchy. The counterpoint to the Hungarian Kör will bet he Quadrille Stirienne by Eduard Eichler. These two different dances have been invented within several years and reflect the political situation of the time: the Kör promotes Hungarian concerns in Budapest and the Quadrille Stirienne those of the German speaking alpine region in Graz. Eduard Eichler presents his new dance in an unconventional form: all figures have two parts: the opening section, the Styrienne , starts for the couples in two lines and ends up in a square *From the lyrics of Josef Strauss’s waltz (opus 293), “Es muß ein Stück vom Himmel sein.” In diagonal position. The dancers enjoy different music in 3/4 to this chorus.

Mss. 56532-5, and from Berg Collection Volumes 1 and 2: Broughton Holograph Diaries, Henry W. and Albert A. Berg Collection, The New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox and Tilden Foundations.) LONDON Throughout January 1813 Hobhouse commutes between London and Whitton. On January 24th he dines with Lord Sidmouth, the Home Secretary, but reveals nothing of their conversation. On February 3rd he dines at Kensington Palace with the Princess of Wales, Byron, Lord and Lady Oxford, Lady Jane Harley, Sir Francis Burdett, and others. “A little boy named William, otherwise known as the mysterious child, came in, and was kissed and treated.” On February 6th his brother Benjamin (to be killed at Quatre Bras in 1815), whom he has not seen for five years, pays him a visit, and they go about together. On February 9th he writes “to Captain Stapleton, giving up the [ Cornwall and Devon ] Miners for good and all.” That night he dines again with the Oxfords and the Princess of Wales. Burdett is expected, but does not arrive “on account of a paragraph in the Chronicle of today in which his connection with H.R.H. is hinted at as the cause of the feuds between the members of the Royal Family”: B[urdett] wrote a letter to H.R.H., which was delivered after dinner and at reading which she burst into tears – In this as Lady Oxford told me he said he should always be ready to advocate her cause but that it was better

Enjoyed by kings and queens, ROI o"ers a natural antidote to your rich lifestyle. Legendary by creation and still legendary today. Pegasus, the mythological symbol that adorns every bottle of ROI is said to be the creator of its invaluable well THE LEGEND LIVES ON Created by the Greek mythological winged horse Pegasus. Legend has it that Pegasus, instructed by Apollo, struck his hoof to the earth in Rogaška and opened up the Roitschocrene spring. What sprung forth was the world’s most magnesium-rich mineral water. At that solemn moment, Apollo said the now famous words “Hereby lies the source of health and the true power of the gods. Instead of Hippocrene, drink Roitschocrene from The spring in front of you.” A wise suggestion to follow, coming from the god of healing, medicine, sun and knowledge. ROI – THE RICHEST MINERAL WATER IN THE WORLD ROI features one of the highest mineral contents of any bottled water in the world, indicated by TDS, the number of total dissolved solids. Its generous mineral content brings a distinct and rich taste to the table. The elements are in harmonious balance and in soluble form, easily absorbable by your body. Your metabolism easily dissolves the minerals and quickly sends them to your cells, ready for action. SPRING OF WELL-BEING Everything good comes from within.

    JOSEPH MARIA VON RAOOWITZ AND GERMAN UNIFICATION By WARREN B. ~ORRIS,,, JR. Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma City University Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 1970 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the reqµirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS July, 1971 JOSEPH MARIA VON RAOOWITZ AND GERMAN UNIFICATION Thesis Approved: qean ~College 8036?9 PREFACE In the fall of 1967, I attended Schiller College in Kleininger­ sheim, Germany. The school was located in a castle high above the Neckar which was once owned by the Radowitz family. Several years later, while studying the early life of Otto von Bismarck, I once again encountered the name Radowitz in the person of his contemporary, Joseph Maria von Radowitz. I became interested in his identity and role in German history and soon discovered that very little work had been done on him by American scholars •. This. led to further research and eventually to this thesis. In spite of his relative obscurity, the importance of Radowitz to German history is great. His career stretched from the Napoleonic era to the Revolution of 1848. Through a study of his work for German unification one covers such significant events as the Frankfurt National Assembly and, most important, the Prussian Plan of Union and the con­ ference at 01mrrtz. I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the help and patience of Dr. Douglas D. Hale, who was always willing to give of his time in order to help me complete this thesis. I also would like to thank Dr.
