The three world religions: Christianity, Judaism and Islam continue to provide the frame. Within this the case studies interpret different phenomena and reflect different processes. Various approaches are taken: they are in part historical, in part anthropological, analytical or descriptive in nature. Four studies deal with monarchic rites in the last decades and years of the Hungarian monarchy, analysing representations of the ruler’s anniversaries. The coronation (1916) held in a time of war and according to Roman Catholic rites is presented on the basis of religious tradition and community memory in the Neolog Jewish interpretation, in which modern civil self-definition and the notion of religious equality are reflected. We can form a picture of the attitude of Jews in the Holy Land to the religious, Christian ruler and the different ways in which the Western and Eastern (Galician) Jews interpreted loyalty to the ruler and national identity. At the turn of the 19th to 20th century rites surrounding the ruler’s anniversaries appeared within a denominational and religious frame, sup- plementing or, in cases, substituting the secular rites of commemoration. God himself defends the continuity of the rule of the Habsburg house. These studies involved new sources in their analyses. They show the connection between dif- ferent world views, the ancient past and the eschatological vision of the future. The studies of prayer books for soldiers and the bells requisitioned for mili- tary purposes offer an interpretation of wartime events within a religious frame. The description of a neo-pagan sacred place throws light on the colourful religious scene in Hungary today. The analysis of the Afro-American influence on Christian Popular Music opens a wider perspective. We learn about the role played by halal in religion, food economy and Muslim identity, through the contemporary food practice of Muslims living in European cities and the rules applied. Our yearbook also includes studies by three doctoral students. It is instructive to see through private photos what religious events a Calvinist community or pri- vate individuals and families considered important to record in images and how they were represented. Another study shows the religious education given within the Heart Brigade, an association established for children in the 19th century within the frame of veneration of the Sacred Heart. This thorough religious education made effective use of symbols and aimed at the emotions in preparing children for a life as believing adults. The “spiritual family” representing a new religious move- ment occupies a special place among the charismatic movements operating within the frame of the Roman Catholic Church. The study presents two such forms: the Community of the Beatitudes and the Verbum Dei Missionary Fraternity and Missionary 7 Family. Their members, clergy and lay persons, men and women, married or single, strive to live their religion within strong community ties. The case studies in this volume clearly reflect the multifarious attitudes and methodological approaches brought to religious phenomena in the Szeged work- shop. Szeged, Christmas 2017.

Abstract: The last coronation in the Kingdom of Hungary took place in the social reality of the Great War. The event was documented with modern means, it was interpreted by numerous opinion-setting groups through the press and also recorded in works of art and easily reproduced popular souvenir objects. The life- worlds of the Monarchy experienced on a denominational basis fundamentally determined the experiences, possibilities for action, interpretations, discourse tra- dition and perspectives of their members. The study examines how the Jewish confession in Hungary adapted and interpreted a rite symbolizing statehood that was performed within the frames of the Roman Catholic confession, as part of the coronation mass. Although veneration of the crowned ruler had been present in Judaism, the succession to the throne in 1916 created a new situation for the Jews who had been raised to the rank of recognised denomination under the previ- ous ruler and who had become equal subjects of the Kingdom of Hungary. The Neolog rabbis presented the events of their time through religious tradition and * External associate, MTA-SZTE Research Group for the Study of Religious Culture, H-6722 Szeged, Egyetem utca 2.

    STUDIA HISTORICA BRUNENSIA 62, 2015, 2 KRISZTINA ARANY – ANTON AVAR PATENTS OF ARMS ONLINE THE DATABASE OF PATENTS OF ARMS OF THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES OF HUNGARY1 Abstract: Besides their decorative appearance, the patents of arms bear significant historical value, which provide important contribution to various ar- eas of historical science. The aim of the National Archives of Hungary’s project of several years was to create a versatile, illustrated, well-search- able and expandable online database, in which we could process the data of all the original patents of arms and related documents held in our insti- tution. Our collections of patents of arms are being built since the founda- tion of our institution, and contain over 2000 original parchment charters granting mainly Hungarian and Transylvanian nobility along with heraldic achievements. At present, the National Archives of Hungary has completed the digitization and processing of all this material, except for the 131 medi- eval (pre-1526) charters, which is to be covered in the near future. Keywords: patents of arms, coats of arms, online database, mass digitization, Na- tional Archives of Hungary, open access. I. Patents of Arms in the National Archives of Hungary The patents of arms bear significant historical value besides their decorative appearance as archival source material.

  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • The Order of the Dragon As Reflected in Hungarian and Croatian Heraldry
    1 THE ORDER OF THE DRAGON AS REFLECTED IN HUNGARIAN AND CROATIAN HERALDRY Ivan Mirnik The Order of the Dragon On March 18, 2006 an exhibition (TAKÁCS ed. 2006) opened at the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts, dedicated to Emperor and King Sigismund of the house of Luxemburg (b. Feb. 15, 1368 – King of Hungary, Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia 1378-1437 – Margrave of Brandenburg 1378 – crowned King of Hungary March 31, 1387 - Roman King July 21, 1411 – crowned King of Bohemia July 28, 1420 – crowned Roman Emperor in Rome May 31, 1433 - d. Znaim, Dec. 9, 1437). In July of the same year it was opened in Luxemburg, at the Musée national d'histoire et art, in a reduced version. Before this exhibition, a symposium was held in Luxemburg in 2005, as an introduction to the forthcoming exhibition (PAULY – REINERT eds. 2005). The authors of both papers presented at the symposium and of the exhibition catalogue have succeeded not only in bringing this ruler and his era closer to us, but also from a historical distance to present his character and deeds in an objective manner. The exhibition itself was excellent and well conceived. At the Emperor Sigismund Exhibition one could, in one room (Section IV – Die Welt der Drachenritter), admire all the paraphernalia of the Order of the Dragon. It was a unique opportunity to see these items, gathered from all over Europe, assembled in one place for the first and probably the last time in history. The catalogue, for instance, listed the famous sword of King Charles Robert's Order of St.
