In this 2018/9 Issue of Landscapes, Journal of the International Centre for Landscape and Language, our Issue Editor is David Gray1 of Sweden’s Dalarna University College where he teaches in the English Department of the School of Humanities and Media. David joins previous editors and Principals of the ICLL, Professors Andrew Taylor, John Kinsella, Yang Yongchun and Drew Hubbell and Dr John Charles Ryan as executive editors for our e-journal of some twenty years’ existence here at Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia. Professor Hubbell has given much time to smoothing the transition from his recent stewardship over the last two years to ensure that David has more than maintained the Journal’s standards of which we have all become jealously proud. We thank both David and Drew for their steadfast support for Landscapes and their immeasurable contribution to the International Centre for Landscape and Language these past several years. As in previous issues, the core of the journal’s content is the group of research essays focussed on landscape themes, while the ‘language’ component is well represented mainly by short stories and poetry on a wide range of topics. Our editorial consultants and referees have worked hard to select and improve the content of this issue and we thank them profusely and sincerely. We are also advised by Executive Dean Professor Clive Barstow of the School of Arts and Humanities and thank him for his encouragement in particular for the growing internationalisation of Landscapes. It is our policy to further extend the international links for the journal and we have begun discussions with a former ECU ‘post-doc’ scholar, Professor Ryszard W Wolny, Director of the Institute of English and American Studies and Head of Department of 1 Dalarna University, English Department, School of Humanities and Media Studies, Högskolegatan 2, SE-791 88, Falun https://ro.ecu.edu.au/landscapes/vol9/iss1/1 2 et al.: Complete Issue 1, Volume 9 Anglophone Cultures at the University of Opole, Poland, with a view to enlisting his support. Glen R E Phillips, February, 2019. Published by Research Online, 2019 3 Landscapes: the Journal of the International Centre for Landscape and Language, Vol. 9, Iss. 1 [2019], Art. 1 Solastalgia, Nostalgia, Exhilarating, Immersive: Landscapes: Heritage II David Francis Gray (Dalarna University, Sweden) Through 2017/18, as the submissions for our thematic issue Landscapes: Heritage came together, it became apparent that a single issue would not be enough to contain the overwhelming number of responses that we received from Landscapes editor Drew Hubbell’s original call for contributions. Thus the editors decided to spread the contributions across two issues, which has been connected in the title for this issue, Volume 9, as Landscape: Heritage II. Volume 8 continues to surpass the download statistics for an individual issue of Landscapes, which is testimony to Drew’s sense of the importance of the topic. And yet this acknowledges too the talent and craft of current and previous editors Glen Phillips and John Ryan, as well as the enduring support of Executive Dean Professor Clive Barstow of the School of Arts and Humanities at ECU. It is these people who make the journal possible, and yet, ultimately it is the contributors who seasonally breathe life into Landscapes and the environmental humanities. Since the last issue and throughout the submissions and revisions phase of Volume 9, there has been further cause to reflect on the interrelationship of heritage with landscape. The frightening consequences of this relationship was defined once again by (man-made) natural disasters. The wildfire season of 2018 in California is regarded in general, as one of the worst on record. More specifically, there was an ominously rich irony to the scenes of the Camp Fire that engulfed and ultimately decimated the small countryside town of Paradise, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. The language used to report on the devastation caused by this wildfire often described “hellish” or “apocalyptic” scenes, and while the Inferno of Dante’s Divine Comedy might have sprung to mind, it was the imagery of the Hollywood environmental-disaster movie Dante’s Peak (1997) that many used for comparison. The California wildfires of 2018 were also not the only abnormal forest fires in the northern hemisphere. Sweden experienced an atypically long period of hot and dry weather during the summer months, which resulted in forest fires from the south of the https://ro.ecu.edu.au/landscapes/vol9/iss1/1 4 et al.: Complete Issue 1, Volume 9 country up to the Arctic Circle – a pattern that has been largely blamed on intensive forest-farming practices. Fortunately, these fires did not affect populated areas in the same way as California, though the share scale and the speed of expansion of the fires led the Swedish government to request assistance through the Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC). Along with Canadian firefighting aircraft, there were firefighters from Italy, Germany, Poland, Norway and Denmark in Sweden to try and contain three mega-fires in mid-Sweden during the summer of 2018, which covered an area of around 25000 ha. Incidentally, it was only a few months after these fires that 15-year-old Greta Thunberg began her school-strike outside the Swedish Parliament in Stockholm, appalled at the level of inertia shown by adults and politicians in the face of climate change; her stand has since led to similar student-led strikes around the world. Forest fires are certainly nothing new for California or Sweden, but the scale and geography of the fires of 2018 are what seems to be alarming scientists. The phenomenon of wildfires occurring in regions that are not normally affected, or are little

    ROYAL SANCTITY AND THE WRITING OF HISTORY ON THE PERIPHERIES OF LATIN CHRISTENDOM, C. 1000 - 1200 Elizabeth Hasseler A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Marcus G. Bull Jessica A. Boon Flora Cassen Jehangir Malegam Brett E. Whalen © 2018 Elizabeth Hasseler ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Elizabeth Hasseler: Royal Saints and the Writing of History on the Peripheries of Latin Christendom, c. 1000 - 1200 (Under the Direction of Marcus G. Bull) In the eleventh and twelfth centuries, the edges of Latin Christendom were expanding outwards as new peoples along its northern and eastern peripheries converted to the Christian faith, including the Danes, Norwegians, and Hungarians. Closely related to this process of Christianization was the centralization of traditionally disunited peoples into unitary polities under the rule of new royal dynasties. These early kings used their novel political authority to patronize religious men and houses, found episcopal institutions, and enforce Christian observance amongst their peoples, and in turn they wielded the spiritual legitimacy offered by their new faith to bolster their dynastic ambitions. Founder-kings such as Knútr IV of Denmark, Óláfr II Haraldsson of Norway, Stephen I of Hungary, and Ladislaus I of Hungary were central to the emergence of their Christian kingdoms: and in death, they came to be venerated as their peoples’ first Christian saints. This dissertation explores the centrality of royal sanctity to the historical traditions of medieval Norway, Denmark, and Hungary.

The Chronicon pictum (ca. 1358), János Thuróczy’s Chronica Hungarorum (Brno, Augsburg, 1488), Mausoleum regum et Ungariae ducum (Nuremberg, 1664), Trophaeum domus Estorasianae (Vienna, 1700) and Clarissimorum Hungariae heroum icones (Vienna, 1652) served as points of reference for the discussion on the ways in which the Hungarian political community wanted to be and was perceived prior to its eighteenth- and nineteenth- century transformation into a modern nation. The study encompasses the formative period of Hungarian illustrated books that contributed to the formulation of the national imagery in Hungary, based on the ethno-genetic myths, memories of shared ancestry and collective past, cultural values, legal code, customs and models of conduct, modes of self-display, and, last but not least, on the imagery of the homeland. The three-and-a-half-century chronological scope of the study has made it possible to trace the major changes This paper was supported by the Foundation for Polish Science – International PhD Program- me,∗ co-financed by the European Union within the European Regional Development Fund.

  • Countrywide Epidemics As “Visits of the Horseman of Death” in Hungary
    Civic Review, Vol. 16, Special Issue, 2020, 135–156, DOI: 10.24307/psz.2020.1209 Éva Bruckner Countrywide Epidemics as “Visits of the Horseman of Death” in Hungary Summary For thousands of years Hungary has, for the most part, been a transit zone for other nations’ armies or a target of conquest. As a result, the Four Horsemen of the Apoc- alypse: Conquest, War, Famine and Death were ravaging mostly at the same time. Among them, Death is “the deputy of hell”, which can destroy everything by diseases and epidemics. This study is a brief review of the infectious diseases which ravaged various regions in Hungary during the past centuries, followed by a more elaborate description of those that targeted the whole country: plague, cholera and Spanish flu. With the help of documents which have not been revealed so far, the study sheds light on interesting stories, like the way the plague helped the city of Pest to become the capital city, or how Hungarian doctors could successfully cure tuberculosis in the unique climate of the Tatra Mountains. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, cholera triggered a development in public healthcare and hygiene that still has its impacts felt to date. The coronavirus, which has hit us in the 21st century, is studied with a focus on its effects on our current society. Keywords: conquest, war, famine, death, epidemics, capital city, public healthcare, society.

  • The Monomachos Crown Domestic Intrigue and Diplomatic Reality Prevalent at the Hungarian Court During the Mid-Eleventh Century
    The Monomachos Crown Domestic Intrigue and Diplomatic Reality Prevalent at the Hungarian Court during the mid-Eleventh Century ZOLTÁN J. KOSZTOLNYIK "Porro dux Andreas a perturbacionibus hostium securus est effectus in regia civitate Alba regalem coronam est adeptus" Chronicon pictum. c. 86. Historians are still unaware of the identity of the crown that may have been used at the coronations of both Andrew I (1046-60), and Andrew's son, Solomon (in 1058). The record has it that Byzantine Emperor Constantine IX Monomachos (1042-1054) did send a royal circlet, diadem, to the court of Andrew I, though the question remains, whether the enamel plates of the particular diadem unearthed at Nyitraivanka in the early 1860s really date back to the eleventh century, or were they merely clever mid-nineteenth century imitation of Byzantine crafts- manship?1 1 On the background, cf.
