It would be absurd to suppose that a History of Germany could be written within the compass of 300 pages. The merest outline is all that could be given in this little book, and very much of vast interest and im- portance has necessarily been omitted. But some knowledge of the political events of former days is necessary for all persons—more especially trav- ellers—who desire to understand and appreciate the customs, buildings, paintings, etc., of any country, and it is hoped that short continental histories may be useful to many who have not time or opportunity for closer study. My aim in the present volume has been simply to give one marked characteristic of each King or Emperor's reign, so as to fix it in the memory; and to show how Prussia came to hold its present position of importance amongst the continental powers of Europe. Emily Hawtrey. iiL BOOK I. HISTORY OF GERMANY. INTRODUCTION. CHAPTER I. The mighty Teutonic or German race in Europe did not begin to play its part in history until the decline of the Roman Empire ; but we must all of us feel the warm- est interest in it when it does begin, for it represents not only the central history of Europe in the Middle Ages, but also the rise of our own forefathers in their home and birthplace of Germany. To understand something of these ancestors, we must go back to the Origin of Races in the earhest known history of the World. The Caucasian Race was divided into three branches : Caucasian E, The Aryan, or Indo-European; IL, The Semitic; III., The Hamitic. The Aryan branch. The races of progress and civil- Aryans, ization, to which we ourselves belong, include nearly all the nations of Europe: Greeks, Latins, Kelts, Teutons, Sclavonians, beside the Asiatic races of Persia and the Hindoos. Our several languages show an affinity with Sanscrit and Zend, the old Hindoo and Persian lan- guages, as if springing from a common stock. But we know nothing; of the Kelts and Teutons until Kelts and ^ , , • . r ,...., we find them migratmg from their Asiatic homes and Teutons, settling themselves in new habitations in the West. (?').' — : 2 HISTORY OF GERMANY. The Kelts were the first to arrive and take possession of Central Europe, probably as far back as 1500 B.C. ( ?), After a time the fiercer Teutons poured into Europe, carrying all before them, and pushing the Kelts into the extremities of the Western lands, where we find the Keltic element still existing in Ireland, Wales, the High- Keltic — Tribes, lands of Scotland, Belgium, Brittany and Spain—leav- ing Central Europe to the Teutons; and the plains of Eastern Europe to the Sclavonians, who soon followed (Bulgarians, Avars, and Lithuanians). The Rhine was the Keltic Border. There were over fifty Germanic or Teutonic Tribes, Tribes^ of whom the chief were Goths, of Scandinavia (where Gothland, Godoland, etc., still mark their dwelling-places). In 200 A.D. they moved southwards, and are found as a powerful nation North of the Danube, subdi- vided into Visigoths (West Goths), of Spain. Ostrogoths (East Goths), of Moldavia, Wallachia and North Italy. The Goths were the first tribe to receive Christianity. Vandals and Burgimdii, kinsmen of the Goths. Vandals, of Spain (Vandalusia) and North Africa in 439 A.r>. The Dukes of Mecklenburg claim descent from them, and still call themselves " Princes of the Van- dals." Burgimdii, settled between the Rhone and the Alps. Switzerland was part of the Burgundian Kingdom. Siievi, or Swabians, of Spain, Gaul and the country known as Swabia. Alemanni, on the upper course of the Rhine, giving their name to Germany amongst the Franks. Thuringians, East of the Franks. INTRODUCTION. 3 Franks (so-called from an ancient word meaning "battle- axe "), of the Lower Rhine, Belgium, and later of Gaul. Saxons, of Holstein, Denmark, and afterwards of Britain, Angles, of Schleswig. Jutes, of Denmark (Jutland). Marcomanni (Marchmen), first of the Rhine and later of Bohemia. Lombardii ("Longobardi"), of North Italy since the sixth century, said to have come from Brandenburg. Scandinavians, or Norsemen, of Norway and Sweden. Frisians, by the North Sea. Gepidce, settled in Hungary, 453 a.d. Chatti (Catti), from whom the Grand Dukes of Hesse claim lineal descent; said to be absorbed into the Franks in third century. Cherusci, to the South of Hanover. Hermann, "the Deliverer," was of this tribe. — CHAPTER II. B.C. 200. The inhabitants of Germany were ignorant of the art of writing, and we have no records of their own from which to form a correct history. It is to the Romans their nearest neighbors, inhabiting Italy on the south and Gaul on the west—that we must turn for some ac- count of the "Barbarian Teutons." The Romans were a cultivated, clever race, the con- querors of the world, and the centre of historical interest and civilization. From their writings we learn that the land to the north of the Danube—lying between the Rhine on the one hand and the Vistula and Carpathian Mountains on the other, and bounded on the north by the Baltic Sea—was inhab- ited by a fair-haired race of men of gigantic stature, broad shoulders, blue eyes, and keen, fierce looks. The Romans regarded these giant forms with fear, and called Germans, them Wehr-mdnnev (or warriors), Germans. From childhood upwards the Germans used every possible means to render themselves strong and hardy; even the new-born baby was plunged into cold water. The dress of the men was simply a short linen garment, confined at the waist by a girdle, or a coat made from the skins of wild beasts sewn together; the children ran about un- clothed, secure against wind and weather, healthy, active and bold. Country. The land was rich in vegetation; on all sides stretched vast morasses and pathless forests, in which roamed wild beasts—bison, boars, stags, wolves and bears, etc.; the 4 INTRODUCTION. 5 air was damp and cold, for the sun's rays could not pen- etrate the thick foliage of the forests, of which one alone is known to have been sixty days' journey long, and nine days' journey wide. Agriculture and farming were indeed carried on, but after a very rude and imperfect fashion. The meadows were rich with long grass for pasture, the earth teemed with salt and iron, which the people soon learnt to make use of. The rivers ran as they do now, but uncrossed by bridges ; he who desired to cross must either make a raft or swim! The life was rude and simple. The inhabitants lived in the open air, building no cities or villages, for the confined life of the Roman towns appeared to them only fit for prisoners. Each man had his own Houses. Kttle house, the rude walls made of boughs and branches of trees filled up with mud, the roofs thatched with straw, the grander ones made of rough-hewn stones and some painted in streaks of various colors. The favorite oc- cupations for the men were hunting and war; children were trained to the use of weapons from infancy. Women also went to war, not so much to fight as to en- courage the men ; at other times the women were busied with the care of cattle and fields; their food consisted of milk, bread, meat, roots, washed down with clear water. Food, though very soon they learnt to brew a good glass of strong beer! Certain virtues were conspicuous in their characters, virtues. Truth and honor were held in high esteem; a promise or a handclasp could be relied upon with certainty, and to break faith with one another invariably incurred the deepest disgrace. Hospitality also was insisted upon, and the best that could be procured was always set he- tore the stranger. Love of home and "the Fatherland" was a strong point even in those early days. HISTORY OF GERMANY. Faults. At the same time they cared for nothing except hunt- ing and war, and when not occupied with either they lay on mats or played at dice ; and to this day it is said of an idler that he is "lying on the bearskin." They carried gambling to such an extent that a man would stake not only his house and property, but also his wife and child, and even himself to be sold as a slave. Worship. They worshipped the heathen gods of Nature: Wodin: the All-Father, who had made the world and from whom twelve other gods emanated. Donar, or Thor: the god of thundery weather, bring- ing rain upon the earth. Hertha: goddess of the earth (earth-mother). Freya: goddess of love. The Sun: bringing all the fruits of the earth to maturity. Hulda: the moon and stars, giving hght at night, and with a crowd of little children's souls around her. Hellia: goddess of the nether world, dwelling in deep darkness. Etc. After-life. They believed in eternal Hfe, in heaven and hell, call- ing them Walhalla and Hela.

  • The German North Sea Ports' Absorption Into Imperial Germany, 1866–1914
    From Unification to Integration: The German North Sea Ports' absorption into Imperial Germany, 1866–1914 Henning Kuhlmann Submitted for the award of Master of Philosophy in History Cardiff University 2016 Summary This thesis concentrates on the economic integration of three principal German North Sea ports – Emden, Bremen and Hamburg – into the Bismarckian nation- state. Prior to the outbreak of the First World War, Emden, Hamburg and Bremen handled a major share of the German Empire’s total overseas trade. However, at the time of the foundation of the Kaiserreich, the cities’ roles within the Empire and the new German nation-state were not yet fully defined. Initially, Hamburg and Bremen insisted upon their traditional role as independent city-states and remained outside the Empire’s customs union. Emden, meanwhile, had welcomed outright annexation by Prussia in 1866. After centuries of economic stagnation, the city had great difficulties competing with Hamburg and Bremen and was hoping for Prussian support. This thesis examines how it was possible to integrate these port cities on an economic and on an underlying level of civic mentalities and local identities. Existing studies have often overlooked the importance that Bismarck attributed to the cultural or indeed the ideological re-alignment of Hamburg and Bremen. Therefore, this study will look at the way the people of Hamburg and Bremen traditionally defined their (liberal) identity and the way this changed during the 1870s and 1880s. It will also investigate the role of the acquisition of colonies during the process of Hamburg and Bremen’s accession. In Hamburg in particular, the agreement to join the customs union had a significant impact on the merchants’ stance on colonialism.

  • A Historical Review and Quantitative Analysis of International Criminal Justice
    CHAPTER TWELVE A HISTORICAL REVIEW AND QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE Section 1. The Historical Stages of International Criminal Justice ICJ made its way into international practice in several stages. The first period ranges from 1268 until 1815, effectively from the first international criminal pros- ecution of Conradin von Hohenstaufen in Naples through the end of World War I. The second stage begins with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles and ranges from 1919 until 2014, when it is expected that all of the existing direct and mixed model tribunals will have closed, leaving only the International Criminal Court (ICC). The third impending stage will begin in January 2015, when the ICC will be the primary international criminal tribunal. 1.1. The Early Historic Period—Thirteenth to Nineteenth Centuries The first period, which could prosaically be called the early historic period, is characterized by three major events occurring in 1268, 1474, and 1815, respectively. In 1268, the trial of Conradin von Hohenstaufen, a German nobleman, took place in Italy when Conradin was sixteen years of age.1 He was tried and exe- cuted for transgressing the Pope’s dictates by attacking a fellow noble French ruler, wherein he pillaged and killed Italian civilians at Tagliacozzo, near Naples. The killings were deemed to constitute crimes “against the laws of God and Man.” The trial was essentially a political one. In fact, it was a perversion of ICJ and demonstrated how justice could be used for political ends. The crime— assuming it can be called that—was in the nature of a “crime against peace,” as that term came to be called in the Nuremberg Charter’s Article 6(a), later to be called aggression under the UN Charter.

Last week we saw the demise of Henri of Champagne, and the crowning of a new King and Queen of Jerusalem, Amalric and Isabella. We also saw the German Crusade recapture the cities of Beirut and Sidon, before it collapsed after hearing about the death of the German Emperor. Now, to say that the Fourth Crusade was a controversial and notorious event is an understatement. It has been described by various historians and commentators as "infamous", "misguided", and "a fiasco". Stephen Runciman, in his trilogy on the history of the Crusades, trumped all these comments when he stated, and I quote, "there was never a greater crime against humanity than the Fourth Crusade" end of quote. This, from an historian writing in the 1950s in Europe, was a pretty big call. More recently, in the year 2001 in fact, Pope John Paul II issued a formal apology for the Fourth Crusade on behalf of the Catholic Church. So why was the Fourth Crusade so infamous? Well, you just have to keep listening to find out. The starting point for any examination of the Fourth Crusade is the election of Pope Innocent III in January 1198.

  • Myth-Making and the Historical Imagination: an Investigation of the Historiography of Islamic Iberia Through Castilian Literature
    Myth-making and the Historical Imagination: An Investigation of the Historiography of Islamic Iberia Through Castilian Literature Gaston Jean-Xavier Arze Springfield, Virginia BA English, University of Virginia, 2017 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Department of Religious Studies University of Virginia December, 2018 Dr. Ahmed H. al-Rahim Dr. E. Michael Gerli 2 1. Introduction A historical narrative is thus necessarily a mixture of adequately and inadequately explained events, a congeries of established and inferred facts, at once a representation that is an interpretation and an interpretation that passes for an explanation of the whole process mirrored in the narrative. Hayden White, Tropics of Discourse (1978). The history of Islam in Spain is a deeply contested historical narrative, whose interpretation has significant implications for Spain’s perception of its national identity, as well as its historical memory, and modern political discourse. The rejection of Islamic Iberia plays an important role in the modern understanding of the nascence of the Spanish state. This is because, the history of medieval Iberia is largely framed as an 800-year struggle for independence from invading Muslims. This historical narrative is obviously at odds with the historical presence of the religion of Islam, the irrefutable linguistic contact between Arabic and Peninsular Romance, and the role of Arabic and Arabic sources in Iberia’s rich literary history. The aforementioned interpretation of the history of the Iberian Peninsula also rejects the influence that Islam played in the creation of identities unique to the peninsula: namely, the Mudéjars, the Moriscos and the Mozarabs.

  • Socio-Cultural Characters of a Border Territory
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Volume 7 • Number 5 • May 2017 Socio-Cultural Characters of a Border Territory Marco Della Rocca Polytechnic of Turin Department Architectural Design Turin, Italy Abstract It is the aim of this article to analyze the political system in effect at the end of the XIX century in a border territory, such as Trentino Alto Adige, a region straddling to worlds: the Italian and the German speaking one. In this analysis I will retrace the origins of regional autonomy by recalling the historical and political events that let to a deep imprint of the concept of self-governance in this area; starting from the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the same year of the annexation of the Bishopric of Trento to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and until the outbreak of WWI. The aim of this study is to understand how deeply the forms of self-governance that the Austrian empire granted to the area influenced the culture and society of the time, and even left traces in today's modern society. 1. Introduction Autonomy is an intrinsic value in the Trentino Alto Adige region, inherited from the history of its past. «The political-administrative system of a State and the correlative concept of sovereignty» hail from its «development processes»; in the case of the Trento society it was the XIX century Hapsburg domination to deeply imprint the concept of «self-governance». The Austro-Hungarian Empire had expanded geographically through «territorial conquests thanks to hereditary rights or free loyalties as in the case of the county of Tyrol».
