Dom[ain]e Extraord[inai]re RAPPORT À SA MAJESTE L'EMPEREUR ET ROI On propose à S[a] M[ajesté] la transmission en faveur du Colonel Krasiński, command[an]t les chevau-légers de la G[ar]de Imp[éri]ale des Domaines d'Opinogora en Pologne qui faisaient partie de la dotat[i]on du P[rin]ce de Ponte-Corvo. SIRE, M[onsieu]r le Colonel Krasinsky a eu l'honneur d'exposer à 10 Votre Majesté que la République de Pologne avait, sous le Règne du Roi Jean Casimir, donné pour neuf advitalite à un de ses ancêtres la Starostie d'Opinogora en récompense de ses services. Il en jouissait personnellement à l'époque où le Roi de Prusse, sous la domination de qui une partie de la Pologne était passée, la réunit à sa couronne. Depuis l'entrée de Votre Majesté dans ce Royaume, les biens dépendant de cette Starostie ont été compris dans la dot[at]ion du Prince de Ponte Corvo et se trouvent aujourd'hui faire partie des Domaines dont Votre Majesté peut disposer. Par sa requête, M[onsieu]r le Colonel Krasinsky vous supplie, Sire, de vouloir bien en former en sa faveur un majorat avec le titre de Comte, en me la renvoyant, Votre Majesté m'enjoint de me procurer des renseig[nemen]ts propres à faire juger quels pouvaient être les droits de M[onsieu]r le Colonel Krasinsky sur les biens désignés par lui au moment où la Prusse s'en est emparé. Pour les établir il a rapporté deux Certificats délivrés, l'un par le Ministre de l'Intérieur du Grand Duché de Varsovie, l'autre par le Conseiller d'Etat, D[irect]eur général des Domaines et forêts nationales dud[i]t Duché. De ces deux Certificats, il résulte bien, comme l'avance M[onsieu]r Krasinsky, que les Domaines compos[an]t la Starostie d'Opinogora étaient occupés par sa famille au moment où le Gouv[ernemen]t de Prusse s'est mis en possession; et qu'il lui fut constitué à lui même par ce Gouv[ernemen]t une pension de 6,908 florins de Pologne, en Ind[emni]té du revenu qu'il perdait qui, suiv[an]t le Certificat du Ministre de l'Intérieur du Grand Duché de Varsovie continue de le payer. Je crois devoir observer à Votre Majesté que les Dom[ai]nes d'Opinogora paraissent être entrés pour un revenu de 45000 f. dans la dotation du Prince de Ponte Corvo. Cependant comme il ne peut exister de doute sur le fait de la jouissance dont le S[ieu]r Krasinsky était en possession, à l'époque où une partie de la Pologne fut réunie à la Prusse, j'ai l'honneur de proposer à Votre Majesté d'accueillir sa demande; et pour récompense de son dévouem[en]t à Votre auguste personne, de lui accorder comme majorat, avec le titre de Comte de l'Empire, la portion de biens provenant de cette Starostie qui faisait partie de la dotation du Prince de Ponte Corvo. En conséquence, j'ai l'honneur de proposer à Votre Majesté le projet de décret ci-joint. Je suis avec respect, Sire, 11 de Votre Majesté Impériale et Royale, le très soumis et fidèle sujet. L'Intendant général de Votre Domaine extraordinaire [signature] [Archives Nationales, cote AF IV 555] Commentaire: Le traité de paix du 30 mai 1814 a annulé les donations napoléoniennes des biens en dehors des nouvelles frontières de la France. Toutefois, le souverain du Royaume de Pologne a laissé les Domaines d'Opinogora en la possession du comte Vincent Krasiński.

  • Darius PETKŪNAS – the Sources of the 1545 Old Prussian Language
    THE SOURCES OF THE 1545 OLD PRUSSIAN LANGUAGE CATECHISMS Darius Petkūnas Abstract The Teutonic Order in Prussia recognised and acknowledged its responsibility to catechise both the German-speaking colonists and the native population. The Reformation made no radical changes to these requirements, but gave them serious attention. During the 1540s to the 1560s, several Catechisms for the non-German subjects of the Duke of Prussia were pre- pared and published in Königsberg, including three in the Old Prussian language. The editor 189 of the first and second Old Prussian-language Catechisms published bilingual books, with the German Catechism on the left-hand page, and the same text on the right-hand page in the Old Prussian language. Reinhold Trautmann established that the source of the Decalogue in these books was Luther’s 1531 Small Catechism. However, he had difficulties confirming the sources of the remaining four parts of the Catechism, since he found a number of words and phrases which could not be identified as coming from Luther’s Catechisms. The article elaborates on Trautmann’s thesis that the source of the German Decalogue is Luther’s 1531 Enchiridion. In addition, it argues that the sources of the remaining parts of the Catechism were German-lan- guage catechetical and liturgical texts that were circulating in Prussia at that time. KEY WORDS: Duchy of Prussia, catechisation, Old Prussian language, Martin Luther. ANOTACIJA Vokiečių ordinas Prūsijoje suvokė ir pripažino savo pareigą katechizuoti tiek vokiečiakalbius ko- lonistus, tiek ir vietinius gyventojus. Reformacija neturėjo esminės įtakos šiems reikalavimams atsirasti, bet sustiprino jiems teikiamą dėmesį.

Prusowie wobec zakonu krzyżac­ kiego w dobie podboju (Monumentą Literaria Prussiae, Seria C: Monografie, nr. 7). Olsztyn: Towarzystwo Naukowe Pruthenia, 2017. - 240 s. ISBN 978-83-934214-9-7 Marius Ščavinskas Klaipėda University Nineteenth and 20th-century historiography about the conQuest of Prussia in the 13th century by the Teutonic Order, based on the different circumstances forming the political, cultural and historical memory developing in different historical epochs and in a varied geographical space, formed a rather clear point of view that the conQuest of Prussia was the expansion of Western Christianity, breaking through in the form of crusades, and interrupting the natural development of the West Balts (mainly Old Prussians), which caused the disappearance of the Old Prussians. There is no doubt that, like any other forms of war, the conQuest naturally triggered change, both in the society of the conQuered and of the conQuerors. For a longtime, the conQuest of the Old Prussians was researched by looking only at the military- political aspects: battles, a discussion of strategy and tactics, the visualisation of the cartography of battles, and the location of Old Prussian castles, highlighting the political circumstances of the arrival of the Teutonic Order in Prussia, descriptions of the ideological attitudes of the Crusades, and descriptions of the hostilities. As well as the military-political aspects, researchers paid significant attention to the pre-Christian order of Old Prussian society, its religion and mythology, confronting the 'peaceful', 'not damaged by civilisation' Old Prussian culture with the aggressive attitude of the Teutonic Order and the supporters of Christian European culture, and in this way, through invisible ties, relating the conQuest of Prussia in the 13th century to events of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Moreover, a substan- tial number of contemporary scholarly works have erased the thin line between material evidence and its interpretation. As a consequence, the architectural remains of Polish Romanesque edifices are often considered the basis for wider comparative research. Meanwhile, fragmentarily preserved structures of Romanesque buildings have allowed scholars to conduct research on their origins and models, but they have rarely provided enough information for spatial recon- structions of them. This means that one might investigate the process of transposing patterns from the Holy Roman Empire to Poland instead of the influence of Polish masons’ lodges on each other. Therefore, this paper has two aims. The first is to look at how imperial pat- terns affected the main stone structures (cathedrals and collegiate 1 Originally, my paper entitled ‘In the Shadow of Salian and Hohenstaufen Cathedrals: The Artistic Influence of the Holy Roman Empire on Polish Romanesque Architecture in the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries’ was given at the ‘Borrowing Images of Empire’ seminar during the Medieval Congress in Leeds in July 2014.

  • Prisoners of War in the Baltic in the XII-XIII Centuries
    Prisoners of war in the Baltic in the XII-XIII centuries Kurt Villads Jensen* University of Stockholm Abstract Warfare was cruel along the religious borders in the Baltic in the twelfth and thirteenth century and oscillated between mass killing and mass enslavement. Prisoners of war were often problematic to control and guard, but they were also of huge economic importance. Some were used in production, some were ransomed, some held as hostages, all depending upon status of the prisoners and needs of the slave owners. Key words Warfare, prisoners of war. Baltic studies. Baltic crusades. Slavery. Religious warfare. Medieval genocide. Resumen La guerra fue una actividad cruel en las fronteras religiosas bálticas entre los siglos XII y XIII, que osciló entre la masacre y la esclavitud en masa. El control y guarda de los prisioneros de guerra era frecuentemente problemático, pero también tenían una gran importancia económica. Algunos eran empleados en actividades productivas, algunos eran rescatados y otros eran mantenidos como rehenes, todo ello dependiendo del estatus del prisionero y de las necesidades de sus propietarios.

  • The Schottenklöster in the World: Identity, Independence and Integration*
    chapter 16 The Schottenklöster in the World: Identity, Independence and Integration* Diarmuid Ó Riain Introduction One of the central concerns of the original Enclaves of Learning, Religion, Ideology and Practice working group was to examine the multifaceted connec- tions between the “enclave” and the surrounding world and to illustrate how texts produced within these communities served to both record and reinter- pret this interaction as well as having the potential to change the underlying relationships.1 This approach essentially treats of the physical, legal or other factors underpinning the identification as an enclave of learning, religion, ideol- ogy and practice within the broader context of the institution’s social relations, thereby seeking to redress the potentially problematic semantic implications of the term “enclave”. The focus of my paper will be the so-called Schottenklöster or Irish Benedictine monasteries, which were established between the later 11th and early 13th centuries in modern-day southern Germany and Austria. That the monasteries of medieval Europe were deeply embedded in the wider social environment rather than detached islands goes, of course, almost with- out saying.2 This reality coexisted, however, with what Hallinger called the traditional gegenweltliche instincts of monasticism, and the rhetoric of with- drawal from the world would always remain prominent, particularly in the context of the emergence of new monastic movements.3 What makes the Schottenklöster an especially interesting case-study with regard to the interplay between idealized detachment and actual integration is the issue of ethnicity; the Irish identity of the monasteries was their sine qua non, and, accordingly, had a profound influence on the level of independence and integration they * The research for this article was funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF): F42 Visions of Community.

Pepin shown standing Pepin le Bref Baldwin II, Margrave of Flanders 2 Continental Ancestors Before Hastings Saints, nuns, bishops, brewers, dukes and even kings among them David Anderson March 12, 2016 Abstract Early on, our motivation for studying the ancestors of the Chicago Rodger’s was to determine if, according to rumor, they are descendants of any of the Scottish Earls of Bothwell. We relied mostly on two resources on the Internet: Ancestry.com and Scotlandspeople.gov.uk. We have been subscribers of both. Finding the ancestral lines connecting the Chicago Rodger’s to one or more of the Scottish Earls of Bothwell was the most time consuming and difficult undertaking in generating the results shown in a later book of this series of three books. It shouldn’t be very surprising that once we found Earls in Scotland we would also find Kings and Queens, which we did. The ancestral line that connects to the Earls of Bothwell goes through Helen Heath (1831-1902) who was the mother and/or grandmother of the Chicago Rodger’s She was the paternal grandmother of my grandfather, Alfred Heath Rodger. Within this Heath ancestral tree we found four lines of ancestry without any evident errors or ambiguities. Three of those four lines reach just one Earl of Bothwell, the 1st, and the fourth line reaches the 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

  • Johannes Bugenhagen and His Pomeranians Sermon
    A new beginning with the word – Johannes Bugenhagen and his Pomeranians Sermon on Romans 10, 9-17 at the English church service, the Day of John the Baptist (June 24th 2018 in St. Johns’ Church, Greifswald) The grace of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and the love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Dear Friends, Brothers and Sisters, Do you know, why the goal of Toni Kroos yesterday evening was so important for the people of Greifswald? Because Toni Kroos is a son of this city and because the Pomeranian People, that means the people of this region, where we are living, have a broken identity. In the last century they lost part of their history and most of their people. Once, before the second World War, Pomerania was a great province of Germany. Now, it is nearly forgotten. Some in Germany think: Is there anymore an area called Pomerania in our country? Perhaps you realized the tough discussion about the name of the university of Greifswald in the last two years. Should the uni- versity be called after Ernst Moritz Arndt, a great scholar of the Pomeranian island of Rügen or not. Arndt and Kroos are guys from this area. So people think: We are somebody. We are not forgotten. Another great guy from Pomerania was Johannes Bugenhagen. Today is his birth- day. He was born in the yaer 1485, 533 years ago. He is one of the big four of the memorial at the Rubenow place. This church is linked very close to Johannes Bugenhagen, because it is a Johanneskirche, Johns’ Church.

  • Creating Holy People and Places on the Periphery
    Creating Holy People and People Places Holy on theCreating Periphery Creating Holy People and Places on the Periphery A Study of the Emergence of Cults of Native Saints in the Ecclesiastical Provinces of Lund and Uppsala from the Eleventh to the Thirteenth Centuries During the medieval period, the introduction of a new belief system brought profound societal change to Scandinavia. One of the elements of this new religion was the cult of saints. This thesis examines the emergence of new cults of saints native to the region that became the ecclesiastical provinces of Lund and Uppsala in the twelfth century. The study examines theearliest, extant evidence for these cults, in particular that found in liturgical fragments. By analyzing and then comparing the relationship that each native saint’s cult had to the Christianization, the study reveals a mutually beneficial bond between these cults and a newly emerging Christian society.

Introduction The Western Slavs once occupied the territory more or less corresponding to the former state of East Germany that is the area roughly between the Oder-Neisse and Elbe-Saale rivers. They are usually called the Polabian Slavs or Wends. They were the westernmost group of the Western Slavs (which includes the Czechs, Poles and Slovaks) who settled the region between the sixth and seventh centu­ ries. 1 The Polabian Slavs are usually divided into three branches: the Sorbs, who occupied roughly the southern part ofthe former East Germany; the Veleti in the northeast of the region; and the Obodrites in the northwest.2 Most of the Polabian Slavs were germanised in the course of time, and only a small Sorbian minority in southeastern Germany retains its linguistic and cultural identity until the present day.' 1 Dvomik 1974:14; and Gimbutas 1971:124-128; and towmianski 1967:98, 221; and Strzelczyk 1976:139-154.
