Dr Herzl outlined to the Supreme Pontiff of the Catholic Church the full details of the Zionist project, providing assurances that the various Holy Places in Palestine would be “ex-territorialised” to ensure their security and protection, and sought the Pope’s endorsement and support, preferably through the issuing of a pro-Zionist encyclical.

  • Creation of Order of Chivalry Page 0 of 72
    º Creation of Order of Chivalry Page 0 of 72 º PREFACE Knights come in many historical forms besides the traditional Knight in shining armor such as the legend of King Arthur invokes. There are the Samurai, the Mongol, the Moors, the Normans, the Templars, the Hospitaliers, the Saracens, the Teutonic, the Lakota, the Centurions just to name a very few. Likewise today the Modern Knight comes from a great variety of Cultures, Professions and Faiths. A knight was a "gentleman soldier or member of the warrior class of the Middle Ages in Europe. In other Indo-European languages, cognates of cavalier or rider French chevalier and German Ritter) suggesting a connection to the knight's mode of transport. Since antiquity a position of honor and prestige has been held by mounted warriors such as the Greek hippeus and the Roman eques, and knighthood in the Middle Ages was inextricably linked with horsemanship. Some orders of knighthood, such as the Knights Templar, have themselves become the stuff of legend; others have disappeared into obscurity. Today, a number of orders of knighthood continue to exist in several countries, such as the English Order of the Garter, the Swedish Royal Order of the Seraphim, and the Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav. Each of these orders has its own criteria for eligibility, but knighthood is generally granted by a head of state to selected persons to recognize some meritorious achievement. In the Legion of Honor, democracy became a part of the new chivalry. No longer was this limited to men of noble birth, as in the past, who received favors from their king.

  • The Sherleys and the Shah.Compressed
    The Sherleys and the Shah Persia as the Stakes in a Rogue’s Gambit GarY ScHWarTz The second of the three sons of the Sussex peer Sir Thomas Sherley (ca. 1542–1612), Sir Anthony Sherley (1565–ca. 1638), suffered from—and made others to suffer even more from—a personality disorder of the kind we encounter in con men. He was a keen judge of men who used his insights only to manip- ulate those who trusted him, in the first place his father, brothers, and protectors. During his wide travels, nearly every move he made left others holding large uncovered loans and debts. His twentieth-century biographers Boies Penrose and Edward Denison Ross were unable to contain themselves when it came to describing Anthony’s character: “He was an inveterate and unscrupulous intriguer, a sententious hypocrite devoid of all real sentiment … He had all the natural devotion of a buccaneer, and his cupidity was only equalled by his extravagance.”1 He was “a self-seeking adventurer pure and simple, a born intriguer, a complete opportunist, a man whose word could never be relied on and whose personal dishonesty leaves us gasping.”2 These judgments are no different from several testimonies from Anthony’s lifetime. His secretary Tomas Pagliarini wrote to the Spanish ambassador in Venice: “Don Antonio is a man who comes running whenever there is an offer of money. He is fickle and corrupt and … mendacious 1 Ross1933,p.86. 2 Penrose 1938, pp. 244–45. 78 buch_persien_DE_EN_produktion_RZ_2_Revision.indd 78 02.09.13 12:56 by nature … He lies awake all night devising schemes to greedy world of old Sir Thomas was more typically Eliza- extract money from princes … He is a man who affects an air bethan than the good fellowship of the Mermaid Tavern.7 of mystery in everything,” and it would be well if “such a pes- And in a postscript to his article “The Sherley Myth,” Roger tiferous weed” be “expelled from the company of illustrious Savory comments: “The following point may be thought not men surrounding the King.”3 James Wadsworth wrote in to be irrelevant: In 1888 the Rev.

  • The Dutch Fighters That Defended the Pontifical States (1860-1870): Problem and Solution Perceptions of the Then Dutch Government
    The Dutch fighters that defended the Pontifical States (1860-1870): Problem and solution perceptions of the then Dutch government Bauke, Douwe, and Matthijs Walta from Friesland, the Netherlands Roos Machielse – s1746103 Crisis and Security Management Master Thesis 10 June 2018 Thesis supervisor: Dr. C.W. Hijzen Second reader: Dr. G.G. de Valk Word amount: 30.993 Dutch fighters in the defense of the Pontifical States (1860-1870): a familial connection In 1860, the Pontifical States under Pope Pius IX were threatened by Italians fighting for unity of the Mediterranean island. A multinational fighting force consisting of thousands of young Catholics from various continents left their homes to fight for the Pope.1 Between 1866 and 1870, my great-great-great grandfather Matthijs Walta and his two brothers Bauke and Douwe Walta (see front page) left Friesland, the Netherlands, to participate in the defense of the Pontifical States. With my ancestors leaving the Netherlands to join an armed struggle abroad 150 years ago, a phenomenon that is still highly relevant today, the topic raised my interest to research the defense of the Pontifical States as a historical case more in depth in this Master Thesis.
