  • Discipline in Polish-Lithuanian Cavalry Units During Battles in the Early Modern Period1
    Open Military Studies 2020; 1: 44–61 Karol Łopatecki* Discipline in Polish-Lithuanian cavalry units during battles in the early modern period1 https://10.1515/openms-2020-0104 Received Jul 13, 2020; accepted Sep 08, 2020 Abstract: Keywords: articles of war, military discipline, organization of cavalry, tactics in the 16th-18th c., desertion, old-Polish art of war The Polish and Lithuanian military in the modern period developed in a different direction from most European areas. First and foremost, it is emphasized that we did not deal with military revolution (it would be better to use the term “evolution”), which did not bring about the origins of a modern military-fiscal state on the territory of the Commonwealth2. This issue certainly requires comprehensive studies, since from at least the mid-17th century onwards, both on the military level as well as in the state organization, the Commonwealth coped well with strong enemies: the Teutonic Order (1519-1521), the Roman Empire (Austria) (1587-1588), the Kingdom of Sweden and the Tsardom of Moscow (1557- 1582, 1600-1629, 1632-1635) and the Ottoman Empire (1621, 1633-1634) 3. The research on transformations occurring in the 16th century indicate crucial changes in the military, but different from those developed in Western Europe. Among the differences it is important to name primarily the reliance on cavalry which fought with polearms and cutting weapons. Moreover, the Crown and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania lacked strongholds understood as large cities fortified with bastions4. These two elements, as well as deficiencies of the fiscal system, which were “patched” by complementing paid troops with private units, district troops and Mass Mobilization5, 1 The article was written as part of the research project of the National Centre for Science SONATA, no.

  • Historical Tales Vol. 9
    Historical Tales Vol. 9 by Charles Morris Historical Tales Vol. 9 HOW KING ROLF WON HIS BRIDE. At one time very many centuries ago, we cannot say just when, for this was in the days of the early legends, there reigned over Upsala in Sweden a king named Erik. He had no son and only one daughter, but this girl was worth a dozen sons and daughters of some kings. Torborg she was named, and there were few women so wise and beautiful and few men so strong and valiant. She cared nothing for women's work, but was the equal of any man of the court in riding, fighting with sword and shield, and other athletic sports. This troubled King Erik very much, for he thought that the princess should sit in her maiden chamber like other kings' daughters; but she told him that when she came to succeed him on the throne she would need to know how to defend her kingdom, and now was the time for her to learn. That she might become the better fitted to rule, she asked him to give her some province to govern, and this he did, making her queen of a third of his kingdom, and giving her an army of stout and bold warriors. Her court was held at Ulleraker in Upland, and here she would not let any one treat her as a woman, dressing always in men's clothing and bidding her men to call her King Torborg. To fail in this would be at risk of their heads.

Shepelyansky1,∗ 1 Laboratoire de Physique Th´eorique du CNRS, IRSAMC, Universit´e de Toulouse, UPS, F-31062 Toulouse, France 2 Barcelona Media Foundation, Barcelona, Spain 3 Dipartimento di Informatica, Universit`adegli Studi di Milano, Italy ∗ Webpage: www.quantware.ups-tlse.fr/dima Abstract Wikipedia is a huge global repository of human knowledge, that can be leveraged to investigate interwinements between cultures. With this aim, we apply methods of Markov chains and Google matrix, for the analysis of the hyperlink networks of 24 Wikipedia language editions, and rank all their articles by PageRank, 2DRank and CheiRank algorithms. Using automatic extraction of people names, we obtain the top 100 historical figures, for each edition and for each algorithm. We investigate their spatial, temporal, and gender distributions in dependence of their cultural origins. Our study demonstrates not only the existence of skewness with local figures, mainly recognized only in their own cultures, but also the existence of global historical figures appearing in a large number of editions. By determining the birth time and place of these persons, we perform an analysis of the evolution of such figures through 35 centuries of human history for each language, thus recovering interactions and entanglement of cultures over time. We also obtain the distributions of historical figures over world countries, highlighting geographical aspects of cross-cultural links. Considering historical figures who appear in multiple editions as interactions between cultures, we construct a network of cultures and identify the most influential cultures according to this network.

  • Thinking Outside the Baltic
    Thinking outside the Baltic Swedish ambitions in Norway at the height of the Great Power Era Master’s thesis, 45 credits Author: Elias Norgren Supervisor: Henrik Ågren Seminar chair: Peter Ericsson Date of defence: 31/5 2021 Semester: Spring 2021 HISTORISKA INSTITUTIONEN Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine the seldom researched Swedish geopolitical interests in Norway in the rst half of the 17th century, with the brief 1658 conquest of Trondheim as its central event of inquiry. Through the study of privy council protocols and chancellor Axel Oxenstierna’s correspondence, the study builds a case for the conuence of security, commerce, and the concepts of nations as the inuencing factors that shaped Swedish imperial foreign policy in the decades leading up to the dramatic war of 1658, yielding a theoretical construction of the Empire’s Baltic doctrine, or the Oxenstierna doctrine, as an explanatory model for Sweden’s early modern expansion patterns. Subsequently through understanding of the Empire’s expansionist rationale leading up to 1658, the conquest of the Norwegian province of Trondheim is put in a new light as having been an interruptive and complicated re-imagining of what the Swedish Empire should be. Keywords: Swedish Empire, Denmark-Norway, Baltic Sea, Axel Oxenstierna, state formation, geopolitics, commerce, early modern nationalism. Acknowledgements Much gratitude is owed to Erik Opsahl from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim for his knowledgeable feedback in the initial stages of this work, and for his invaluable recommendations of Norwegian research on the topic, without which this project would likely never have taken o.

The interaction of provincial privilege and imperial prerogative is seen as a major catalyst in the reform process. The perspective not only sheds light on the development of agrarian reform in the Baltic provinces but illuminates the nature of the Baltic/Russian relationship in the period under study. The research is interpretative and analytical within a chronological framework with thematic emphases in each chapter.
