Einführung Im November 1918 – vor genau 100 Jahren – brach mit der Niederlage im 1. Weltkrieg in Deutschland die Revolution aus. Sie führte zum Untergang der Monarchie und zur Er- richtung der ersten demokratischen Republik auf deutschem Boden. Mit einem täglichen Kalenderblatt blicken wir an dieser Stelle zurück auf ausgewählte Ereignisse jener Wo- chen. Damit erinnern wir daran, dass sich Demokratie und Freiheit in Deutschland nicht von selbst durchsetzten, sondern in einem heftigen Ringen erstritten werden mussten.

  • P. Lucchi Pola E Viribus Unitis
    1 LA PIAZZAFORTE DI POLA E L’AFFONDAMENTO DEL VIRIBUS UNITIS. Patrizia Lucchi Vedaldi 1) PREMESSA. 2) DAL 26 OTTOBRE AL 1° NOVEMBRE. 3) ANCORA SULL’AFFONDAMENTO DEL VIRIBUS UNITIS. 4) L’OCCUPAZIONE DELLA PIAZZAFORTE IN NOME DEGLI ALLEATI. 1) PREMESSA. Affrontando la genesi e l’esecuzione dell’impresa di Pola del 1° novembre 1918, credo sia necessario sfatare una leggenda creata dai detrattori degli italiani e che ancora oggi ogni tanto viene riproposta1, con la quale si è tentato di far credere che l’affondamento del Viribus Unitis fosse avvenuto quando già l’Italia sapeva che la flotta imperiale era stata consegnata, per accordo, al nascente Stato degli Sloveni, Croati e Serbi. Ques’ultimo, peraltro, in gran segreto, stava tradendo quanto pattuito con il Regno dei Serbi a Corfù il 20 luglio 1917. Preciso che nessuno degli autori da me consultati riporta tutti i fatti che sto per presentare. Pertanto ho cercato di ricomporre gli eventi, intersecando vari studi e documenti. Ne è emerso un quadro interessante, grazie anche a una fonte inedita: i fogli di servizio (Hautptgrundbuchsblatt) di 27 marinai di Neresine, sull’ isola di Lussino, che vennero “liquidati” (zuerkannt) già il 27 ottobre. Se ci rifacciamo alle date, innanzi tutto rilevo che data solo 28 ottobre la comunicazione ufficiale con la quale si portava a conoscenza degli equipaggi il fatto che si intendeva concedere licenze illimitate a chi ne 1 Jane Hathaway, Rebellion, Repression, Reinvention, Greenwood Publishing Group, 2001, p. 205; Achille Rastelli, L’affondamento della SMS VIRIBUS UNITIS, Quaderni, vol.

It is our responsibility that we leave a liveableReader habitat behind for our children and grandchildren. We must not take anything away from it, on the contrary, we should add what we can to pass on more than we inherited. The danger of radical climate change on Earth is one of the most menacing environmental issues of our age. As early as 1955, John Neumann, in his controversial article “Can We Survive Technology?”, warned of the extraordinary dangers of the growing extent to which mankind was destroying nature. There is more and more cause for concern, as probably never before in history has the Earth witnessed faster environmental change than today. Many international surveys indicate that global climate change may afflict mankind more than all the wars or other international conflicts. Global warming disrupts the flora and fauna, the ice cap is melting, and bears no longer hibernate. The forecasts, and more and more frequently current reports as well, speak of extreme heat, hitherto unparalleled droughts, hurricanes and forest fires. Will migration due to wars and lack of sustenance be superseded by migration caused by climate change? Growing concern for and interest in the problems of nature have become palpable in many walks of life.

Dr. Humberto de Oliveira opened the festivities by welcoming all of the gathered societies, and between the main course and dessert, each nation’s society’s representative was asked to say a few words. There was an exchange of tokens of appreciation from the gathered societies to the Portuguese society, some of which were quite humorous. Dr. de Oliveira presented each chapter with the Portuguese Academy’s journal that contained many excellent articles and illustrations in Portuguese with summaries in French and English at the end of the journal.

    All Guns Blazing! Newsletter of the Naval Wargames Society No. 204 –April 2011 EDITORIAL Gentlemen, Gunnery: it’s all about gunnery. Unless you’re involved with ancient galleys or ultramodern missile-based encounters, our hobby, whether you’re Jervis or Jellicoe, is primarily concerned with measuring ranges and adding up factors for resolving gunnery. Some five years ago now I came across the ultimate gunnery book, John Brook’s Dreadnought Gunnery and the Battle of Jutland: The Question of Fire Control. At nearly £70 it was, and indeed remains, the most expensive book I have ever bought! However, this magisterial account seems to have been reprinted, as I saw it the other day in ‘Foyles’ on the Charing Cross Road for the princely sum of £96.99!! Nevertheless, it is worth every penny—all nine thousand, six hundred and ninety- nine of them. At some point I mean to give it a full review, but for now I’ll just say that it gets to the real nitty- gritty issue that lay at the heart of all fire control systems of the period: the importance of the rate of change of range, or ‘range rate’ for short. If this was changing constantly or too quickly, it played havoc with predicting the correct range at which to aim the guns. Generally, most rule-sets seem to pay lip service to this issue by penalizing vessels which turn or are firing a target that is turning, and you can see the point here. Nevertheless, it is worth considering that if you are bearing down on an enemy line at a constant angle but not turning, you won’t suffer any gunnery reduction; in reality, however, you could be closing at hundreds of yards a minute.

Thank you for respecting the hard work of this author. A Fleet in Being: Austro-Hungarian Warships of WWI Introduction From 1904 to 1913, Admiral Graf Rudolf Montecuccoli was Commander in Chief of the Austro- Hungarian Kaiserliche und Königliche Kriegsmarine (Imperial and Royal War Fleet). Montecuccoli was a driving force behind the modernisation of the fleet, in which he was helped by support from Archduke Franz Ferdinand. He was succeeded in 1913 by Admiral Anton Haus, who became the only active duty officer not a member of the Imperial house to be given the rank of Grand Admiral, in 1916. He died of pneumonia in February 1917 and was succeeded as commander in chief by Admiral Maximilian Njegovan. After the mutiny at Cattaro, Njegovan was retired on the 1st of March 1918, replaced by Rear Admiral Miklós Horthy. The navy's main ports were Pola, Trieste, and Cattaro, while the Naval Academy was in Fiume. The navy's ships were supplied primarily by Stabilimento Tecnico Triestino (STT) in Trieste, Cantiere Navale Triestino (CNT) in Monfalcone, Whitehead in Fiume, and Danubius (a company set up and subsidised by the Hungarian government) also based in Fiume.

In the war, Austria was allied with Germanyand Turkey againstBritain and France,later joined by Itaty andthe United States.With seacoastson the Adriatic andBlack Seas,Austria brought a powerful navy to the war. Its fleet of 16 battleshipswas basedin the Adriatic, oppositeold enemyItaly. Although there were many skirmishesin the Adriatic, pre-warstrategies had neveraddressed the questionof what to do if the enemy'sbattle fleet would not come out and fight.
