    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Bavaria the Bavarians Emerged in a Region North of the Alps, Originally Inhabited by the Celts, Which Had Been Part of the Roman Provinces of Rhaetia and Noricum
    Bavaria The Bavarians emerged in a region north of the Alps, originally inhabited by the Celts, which had been part of the Roman provinces of Rhaetia and Noricum. The Bavarians spoke Old High German but, unlike other Germanic groups, did not migrate from elsewhere. Rather, they seem to have coalesced out of other groups left behind by Roman withdrawal late in the 5th century AD. These peoples may have included Marcomanni, Thuringians, Goths, Rugians, Heruli, and some remaining Romans. The name "Bavarian" ("Baiuvari") means "Men of Baia" which may indicate Bohemia, the homeland of the Marcomanni. They first appear in written sources circa 520. Saint Boniface completed the people's conversion to Christianity in the early 8th century. Bavaria was, for the most part, unaffected by the Protestant Reformation, and even today, most of it is strongly Roman Catholic. From about 550 to 788, the house of Agilolfing ruled the duchy of Bavaria, ending with Tassilo III who was deposed by Charlemagne. Three early dukes are named in Frankish sources: Garibald I may have been appointed to the office by the Merovingian kings and married the Lombard princess Walderada when the church forbade her to King Chlothar I in 555. Their daughter, Theodelinde, became Queen of the Lombards in northern Italy and Garibald was forced to flee to her when he fell out with his Frankish over- lords. Garibald's successor, Tassilo I, tried unsuccessfully to hold the eastern frontier against the expansion of Slavs and Avars around 600. Tassilo's son Garibald II seems to have achieved a balance of power between 610 and 616.

  • From Contract to Treaty: the Legal Transformation of the Spanish Succession (1659-1713)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Ghent University Academic Bibliography From Contract to Treaty: the Legal Transformation of the Spanish Succession (1659-1713) Frederik Dhondt Ph.D. Fellow of the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) Legal History Institute, Ghent Universityi Abstract The problem of the Spanish Succession kept the European diplomatic system in suspense from 1659 until 1713. Statesmen and diplomats tackled the question. Their practical vision of the law is a necessary complement to legal doctrine. Louis XIV and Emperor Leopold I used incompatible and absolute claims, which started in private law and Spanish succession law. At the Peace of Utrecht, these arguments completely dissolved. The War of The Spanish Succession thus not only redesigned the political map of Europe. It altered the norm hierarchy in public law, strengthening international law as the framework of the “Société des Princes”. Introduction The War of the Spanish Succession (1701/1702-1713/1714) redesigned the political map of Europe. It sealed the definitive end of French encirclement by the Spanish Habsburgs. When Louis XIV died in September 1715, the heydays of the Spanish Monarchy were gone and a Bourbon King, his own grandson, reigned in Madrid. Both Spanish and French claims for universal monarchy had come to an endii. The Treaties of Utrecht and Rastadt/Baden created a balance of power on the continent between Versailles and Vienna, which was to last for 30 years. Finally, the war constituted the basis for British dominance as a commercial naval power, at the expense of the Dutch Republic.

  • The Infanta Will Marry the Person Who Provides the Peace Or the One Who Gives Us the Means to Continue The
    2016 III “The Infanta will marry the person who provides the Peace or the one who gives us the means to continue the War”: The negotiations for the marriage between Infanta María Teresa of Austria and Emperor Leopold I (1654-1657) Rocío Martínez López Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED) Article: The negotiations for the marriage between Infanta María Teresa of Austria and Emperor Leopold I “The Infanta will marry the person who provides the Peace or the one who gives us the means to continue the War”:1 The negotiations for the marriage between Infanta María Teresa of Austria and Emperor Leopold I (1654- 1657) Rocío Martínez López Abstract: Prince Baltasar Carlos’s death in 1646 turned his little sister, María Teresa, into the direct heiress of King Felipe IV of Spain. For this reason, her marriage became a key issue regarding the European politics of the central decades of the seventeenth century. Her marriage with the heir of Emperor Ferdinand III was the option chosen by Felipe IV as the most convenient for his territories as long as there was no male heir for his throne. But the negotiations to achieve that end were far from easy. In this essay, we will examine the negotiations conducted between Madrid and Vienna during the years 1654 and 1657, to arrange the marriage between Infanta María Teresa and the future emperor Leopold I, through the correspondence interchanged between King Felipe IV and his ambassadors in the imperial court. Keywords: Felipe IV, Infanta María Teresa, succession, Empire, Spanish Monarchy, Leopold I.
