Coffeehouses, especially in Vienna, have long been known as a gathering place for writers and poets. The arrival of a new, French, emperor on the scene and the restructuring of the old presented a larger threat to the Habsburgs than their territorial losses to date, for there was no longer any certainty that they would continue to be elected.

    Peter Schmid " Heinrich Wanderwitz (Hrsg. ) DIE GEBURT ÖSTERREICHS 850 Jahre Privilegium minus SCHNELLý STEINER Roman Deutizzgez" Das Privilegium minus, Otto von Freising und der Verfassungswandel des 12. Jahrhunderts Die Urkunde, die Kaiser Friedrich Barbarossa am 17. September 1156 über die Vereinbarungen des vorangegangenen Regensburger Reichstags ausstellte, und der Bericht, den Otto von Freising zwei Jahre später in seinen Gesta Friderici über diese Vorgänge niederschrieb, bilden Österreichs für uns die beiden wichtigsten Quellen über die Erhebung zum Herzogtum. Beide Texte bergen eine Fülle von Interpretationsproblemen; soweit sie rein quellenkritischer Natur sind, werden sie in anderen Beiträgen dieses Bandes behandelt. Im folgenden sollen vielmehr die verfassungsgeschichtlichen Deutungsschwierigkeiten in den Blick genommen werden, die Privilegium minus und Gesta Friderici aufiverfen. Dabei werden drei Problemkreise im Zentrum der Betrachtung stehen: zuerst die lehnrechtliche Bedeutung des Gesamtvorgangs (I); dann die Bedeutung der einzelnen durch die Urkunde verbrieften Privilegien für die tatsäch- lichen Verfassungszustände des 12. Jahrhunderts (II); die Frage den zuletzt nach drei Grafschaften", die Ottos Bericht her" Mark Österreich nun zufolge von alters zur gehörten und zusammen mit dieser das neugeschaffene Herzogtum bildeten (III). Alle drei Problemkreise sol- len jeweils vor dem Hintergrund des allgemeinen Verfassungswandels im 12. Jahrhundert ver- ortet werden, wobei diese Perspektive nicht nur das Verständnis für diese Fragen verbessern kann, sondern gleichzeitig umgekehrt das rechte Verständnis der beiden Texte auch helfen kann, diesen allgemeinen Verfassungswandel besser zu begreifen. Angesichts des Umstandes, dass beide Quellen, ihrer Bedeutung entsprechend, schon vielfach Gegenstand gelehrter Bemühungen gewesen sind, kann es dabei weniger um die Präsentation von umwälzenden Entdeckungen oder Neuerkenntnissen gehen als vielmehr um die kritische Auseinandersetzung mit bisherigen Deutungen.

  • European Elites and Ideas of Empire, 1917…1957
    EUROPEAN ELITES AND IDEAS OF EMPIRE, 1917–1957 Who thought of Europe as a community before its economic integra- tion in 1957? Dina Gusejnova illustrates how a supranational European mentality was forged from depleted imperial identities. In the revolutions of 1917–1920, the power of the Hohenzollern, Habsburg, and Romanoff dynasties over their subjects expired. Even though Germany lost its credit as a world power twice in that century, in the global cultural memory, the old Germanic families remained associated with the idea of Europe in areas reaching from Mexico to the Baltic region and India. Gusejnova’s book sheds light on a group of German-speaking intellectuals of aristocratic origin who became pioneers of Europe’s future regeneration. In the minds of transnational elites, the continent’s future horizons retained the con- tours of phantom empires. This title is available as Open Access at 10.1017/9781316343050. dina gusejnova is Lecturer in Modern History at the University of Sheffield. new studies in european history Edited by peter baldwin, University of California, Los Angeles christopher clark, University of Cambridge james b. collins, Georgetown University mia rodriguez-salgado, London School of Economics and Political Science lyndal roper, University of Oxford timothy snyder, Yale University The aim of this series in early modern and modern European history is to publish outstanding works of research, addressed to important themes across a wide geographical range, from southern and central Europe, to Scandinavia and Russia, from the time of the Renaissance to the present.

  • The Ambivalence of Identity
    The Ambivalence of Identity The Austrian Experience of Nation-Building in a Modern Society by Peter Thaler Purdue University Press West Lafayette, Indiana 2 Catalyst or Precondition The Socioeconomic Environment of Austrian Nation-Building or much of the postwar era, the scholarly interpretation of contemporary Austrian history centered on the concept of an FAustrian nation that had ¤nally found its destiny, guided by political leaders who had overcome their former disagreements for the good of the country.1 The differences between the interwar and the postwar developments gained particular attention; Austria’s second republic was demarcated from its ¤rst. The modest Alpine republic with the historic name that had arisen from the ashes of the Habsburg Monarchy had been described as the “the involuntary state,” as re¶ected in the title of Reinhard Lorenz’s study, and “the state that no one wanted,” as Hellmut Andics named his popular book.2 Drawing on the latter title, the reemerged republic of the postwar era would widely be characterized as “the state that everyone wanted.”3 Leading foreign analysts of Austrian nation-building also respected these interpretative perimeters.4 William Bluhm’s classic Building an Austrian Nation introduced valuable tools of analysis into the Austrian debate; indeed, its contribution is greatest from a methodological point of view. The American political scientist utilized polls for the broader picture of Austrian public opinion but also conducted individual inter- views with members of the political elites. He examined the structural dynamics of postwar Austrian society and contrasted them with earlier time periods. Ultimately, however, he remained bound to an analytical 26 The Ambivalence of Identity approach that juxtaposes a successful postwar integration with a previ- ous history of disintegration and does not probe the contractual con- sensus model that informs it.

    Silver Pfennigs and Small Silver Coins of Europe in the Middle Ages David P. Ruckser and Lincon Rodrigues AUSTRIA *In the section entitled “AUSTRIA” are included coins from Vienna, Vienna Neustadt , Krems, some non-ecclesiatic Friesach and Enns mints.... Especially the “Wiener Pfennigs”. Other issues are listed under the various cities , bishoprics or provinces. The March of Austria was first formed in 976 out of the lands that had once been the March of Pannonia in Carolingian times. In 1156, the Privilegium Minus elevated the march to a Duchy independent of the Duchy of Bavaria. LEOPOLD I - 976-994 Leopold I, also Luitpold or Liutpold (died 994) was the first Margrave of Austria from the Babenberg dynasty. Leopold was a count in the Bavarian Danube district and first appears in documents from the 960s as a faithful follower of Emperor Otto I the Great. After the insurgence by Henry II the Wrangler of Bavaria in 976 against Emperor Otto II, he was appointed as "margrave in the East", the core territory of modern Austria, instead of a Burkhard. His residence was proba- bly at Pöchlarn, but maybe already Melk, where his successors resided. The territory, which originally had only coincided with the modern Wachau, was enlarged in the east at least as far as the Wienerwald. He died at Würzburg. The millennial anniversary of his appointment as margrave was celebrated as Thousand years of Austria in 1976. Celebrations under the same title were held twenty years later at the anniversary of the famous Ostarrîchi document first mentioning the Old German name of Austria.
