  • Two Portraits Allegedly Depicting Two Members of the Bosio Family
    Journal of Historical Archaeology & Anthropological Sciences Research Article Open Access Two portraits allegedly depicting two members of the Bosio family Abstract Volume 3 Issue 4 - 2018 Two portraits of two Hospitaller knights of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem are Patrice Foutakis often reported as illustrating two members of the Bosio family from Piedmont, Italy. French Ministry of Culture, France Many Bosios have been knights of this Order indeed and these portraits are today at a palace which was the house of Giacomo and Antonio Bosio in the sixteenth and Correspondence: Patrice Foutakis, French Ministry of Culture, seventeenth century. However, no study about these portraits has been carried out so France, Email [email protected] far. A careful examination of the technique, of the style of the painters, of some dress details and the dating of the two paintings, along with biographical data of the Bosios Received: January 09, 2018 | Published: July 26, 2018 members of the Hospitaller Order, reveals that these portraits cannot depict knights from this family. It is neither the first nor the last time that paintings are erroneously identified. Progress in research makes anonymous portraits earning an identity, while unidentified portraits will never get rid of anonymity; nevertheless they deserve credit. Making clear why the two knights on these portraits are not members of the Bosio family is fairly important for the history of art and for the iconographical database. Introduction As part of the rich collection of paintings at the magistral palace, via dei Condotti in Rome (Figure1), there are two portraits, referred as illustrating two members of the Bosio family.

    CHAPTER SEVENTEEN THE HUMANIST TRADITION – MARIA STUART (1646) James A.

According to the title page, it was printed ‘in Cologne, at the old printery’ (‘te Keulen, in d’oude druckerye’), which in fact was Vondel’s publisher Abraham de Wees. It was also this printer who paid the poet’s fi ne when he was con- demned to pay one hundred and eighty guilders.1 Th rough the Roman Catholic ‘crucifi ed royal heroine’ and ‘crowned martyr’2 Mary Stuart, who had died some sixty years earlier, Vondel indirectly but unmistak- ably honoured his contemporary King Charles I, and through the fi g- ure of the ambitious Elizabeth I, criticized Cromwell, the leader of Parliament and Charles’s rebellious opponent.3 For the Amsterdam Protestants and the administrators of the Amsterdam Schouwburg, this alignment with the Roman Catholic Queen of Scots was unaccep- table. From their point of view, the play was polemical, blasphemous, and infl ammatory, and they ensured that the court fi ned Vondel for his stance.

Contents 1 Princess of Württemberg 2 Grand Duchess of Russia 3 Personality 4 European Tour 5 Last Year under Catherine II 6 Empress of Russia 7 Dowager Empress 8 Children 9 Notes 10 Bibliography Maria Feodorovna. Portrait by Alexander Princess of Württemberg Roslin. Maria Feodorovna was born in Stettin (now Szczecin, Poland) on October 25, 1759 as Princess Sophie Marie Dorothea Auguste Louise of Württemberg. She was the daughter of Friedrich II Eugen, Duke of Württemberg and his wife Friederike Dorothea of Brandenburg-Schwedt. Named after her mother, Sophia Dorothea, as she was known in her family, was the eldest daughter of eight children, five boys and three girls. In 1769, when she was ten years old, her family took up residence in the ancestral castle at Montbéliard, near Basel, then in the Duchy of Württemberg, in what is today Alsace.[1] Montbéliard was the seat of the junior branch of the House of Württemberg to which she belonged, it was also a cultural center and many intellectual and political figures frequented her parents' palace . The family's summer residence was situated at Étupes. Princess Sophie’s education was better than average in the culture-oriented paternal home and she would love the arts all her life.

  • Germany and the Coming of the French Wars of Religion: Confession, Identity, and Transnational Relations
    Germany and the Coming of the French Wars of Religion: Confession, Identity, and Transnational Relations Jonas A. M. van Tol Doctor of Philosophy University of York History February 2016 Abstract From its inception, the French Wars of Religion was a European phenomenon. The internationality of the conflict is most clearly illustrated by the Protestant princes who engaged militarily in France between 1567 and 1569. Due to the historiographical convention of approaching the French Wars of Religion as a national event, studied almost entirely separate from the history of the German Reformation, its transnational dimension has largely been ignored or misinterpreted. Using ten German Protestant princes as a case study, this thesis investigates the variety of factors that shaped German understandings of the French Wars of Religion and by extension German involvement in France. The princes’ rich and international network of correspondence together with the many German-language pamphlets about the Wars in France provide an insight into the ways in which the conflict was explained, debated, and interpreted. Applying a transnational interpretive framework, this thesis unravels the complex interplay between the personal, local, national, and international influences that together formed an individual’s understanding of the Wars of Religion. These interpretations were rooted in the longstanding personal and cultural connections between France and the Rhineland and strongly influenced by French diplomacy and propaganda. Moreover, they were conditioned by one’s precise position in a number of key religious debates, most notably the question of Lutheran-Reformed relations. These understandings changed as a result of a number pivotal European events that took place in 1566 and 1567 and the conspiracy theories they inspired.

  • Ottheinrich's View of Heidelberg
    Please provide footnote text CHAPTER 5 Ottheinrich’s View of Heidelberg Figure 70 Unknown artist, View of Heidelberg. From Sebastian Münster, Cosmographia (Basel: Heinrich Petri, 1550). Woodcut, 25.3 × 70.2 cm. The view of Heidelberg (fig. 70) is a large, four-page foldout panorama of the city and Heidelberg Castle, on the banks of the river Neckar, a tributary of the Rhine. The view was not submitted by Heidelberg’s ruler, the Wittelsbach prince-elector Friedrich II of the Palatinate but by his nephew, Count Palatine of the Rhine Ottheinrich of Palatinate-Neuburg (1502–1559). Prince-elector of the Palatinate was the most prestigious office in the lineage of the counts palatine of the Rhine, held by the Wittelsbach family. Due to the division of territories among different branches of the family, by the sixteenth century younger branches held the less important office of count palatine in Simmern, Zweibrücken, Veldenz, and Neuburg. The curious discrepancy between pa- tronage and rulership in the view of Heidelberg makes this view the perfect case study for testing the validity of the ancestral mode as a category of city views. At the time of Ottheinrich’s submission, between 1547 and 1550, the re- bellious and bankrupt count lived in exile from his domains in Neuburg and could not make any territorial claims to Heidelberg. Nor did he attempt to do so in the intricate program of texts, genealogical trees, and illustrations that he submitted to the Cosmographia. Instead, Ottheinrich’s program served to advance and publicize his long-standing ancestral claim to the electorship.

  • Memories of the House of Este in England
    THE INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION AND ASSOCIATION ON NOBILITY (TICAN) Memories of the House of Este in England The Royal House of Windsor, in their veins runs the blood of the oldest Italian Dynasty Carmelo Currò Troiano & Don Salvatore Ferdinando Antonio Caputo (George, by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, France and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith, Prince-Elector of Hanover, Duke of Brunswick. ca. 1714, the year of his succession, by Sir Godfrey Kneller) Memories of the House of Este in England The Este Royal Family still reigns, and with the world's most famous monarchy. It reigns under another name, because now is called Windsor. In their veins, however, runs the blood of the oldest Italian Dynasty. Among the many states of late medieval Italy, one stands out for its unfamiliarity to an English audience and for its neglect in historical research: that of the Este family, lords (later Dukes) of the cities of Ferrara, Modena and Reggio in northern Italy. Welf IV d'Este, son of Alberto Azzo II, moved to Germany, first to Carinthia and then to Bavaria, giving rise to one of the most important families in European history, the Guelphs. This in turn ultimately led to the ascension to the English throne in 1714 with George I of England. The Este constituted, with the Savoy, the longest Italian family dynastic among the various lordships that from the Middle Ages to the Risorgimento (The Resurgence) dominated the small states that made up the boot of Italy controlled for long periods a portion that practically reached from the Adriatic Sea to the Tyrrhenian Sea until the Republic of Lucca, acting as cushion between the states of the Church and those in the north, Venice, Mantua and Milan.

  • French Disease Or Maladie Anglaise. Figures of Contempt Or of Self-Assertion
    Klaus Reichert French disease or maladie anglaise. Figures of contempt or of self-assertion Abstract (English) This paper focuses firstly on the role stereotypes play in the emergence of nation-building in the sense of “imagined communities” (inclusion versus exclusion), using examples from the Bible, from Shakespeare, and from the German Wars of Independence (1813-1815). Secondly, stereotypes are shown as reactions against emerging new ideas or concepts that indicate a shift in traditional values (the self-determination of Shakespeare’s criminals Richard III and Iago, and Machiavelli’s “Principe” versus Erasmus’s “Institutio Principis Christiani”). Both basic kinds of stereotypes serve as safeguards against differentiation and are fact-resistant. Abstract (Deutsch) Stereotype sind wirklichkeits- und wahrheitsresistent. Sie lassen sich nicht durch Argu- mente entkräften oder auflösen wie Vorurteile; sie sind prinzipiell nicht falsifizierbar. Da- bei sind sie stabil, oft über Jahrhunderte. Die ‚Begründungen‘ können zwar wechseln – der Judenhaß reicht vom Antijudaismus des ‚Heilandmords‘ bis zum rassistischen Antisemi- tismus mit den Zwischenstufen der Hostienschändung, der Brunnenvergiftung, des Wu- chers und dem Streben nach Weltherrschaft –, aber die Ausgrenzung bleibt stabil, auch wenn sie den historischen Umständen angepaßt wird. Das den Stereotypen zugrunde lie- gende Modell ist das von Exklusion und Inklusion als identitätsetzendem oder -stabili- sierendem Existential: ‚Wir‘ und ‚die Anderen‘. Das Modell funktioniert besonders effi- zient in Krisenzeiten als Entlastung durch Schuldzuweisung (Seuchen im Mittelalter; ökonomische oder politische Klemmen seit dem 19. Jahrhundert). Auf einer weiter gefaß- ten Ebene spielen Stereotypen eine mentalitätsgeschichtlich entscheidende Rolle bei der Herausbildung von Nationalstaaten, den ‚imagined communities‘, wie sie genannt wurden, als Abgrenzung gegen andere Nationen.

  • Pontifical Orders and Titles of Nobility
    September 30, 2013 THE INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION & ASSOCIATION ON NOBILITY UNDER THE PATRONAGE OF H.R.H. CROWN PRINCE LEKA II OF THE ALBANIANS Pontifical Orders and Titles of Nobility Pontifical decorations are the titles of nobility, orders of Christian knighthood and other marks of honour and distinction which the papal court confers upon men of unblemished character who have in any way promoted the interests of society, the Church, and the Holy See. The titles range all the way from prince to baron inclusive, and are bestowed by the pope as temporal sovereign. The title ordinarily conferred is that of count prefixed to the family name, which title is either merely personal or transferable by right of primogeniture in the male line. Bishops assistant at the throne are de jure Roman counts. There is another title which is usually called Count Palatine, but the true designation is Count of the Sacred Palace of Lateran, which is attached to many offices in the papal court. The papal orders of knighthood, ranking according to their importance and dignity, are: 1. Supreme Order of Christ; 2. Order of Pius IX; 3. Order of St. Gregory the Great; 4. Order of St. Sylvester; 5. Order of the Golden Militia, also called of the Golden Spur; 6. Order of The Holy Sepulchre (semi-official note of the Cardinal Chancellor of Equestrian Orders, "Osservatore Romano", 12 Feb., 1905). Pius X decreed that the Orders of Christ and the Golden Militia should have only one, the other four orders, three grades or classes ("Multum ad excitandos"; 7 Feb., 1905); that occasionally, but very rarely, in matters of special importance and by special papal permission, a commander eminently distinguished might be allowed to wear the badge (smaller size than that of the first class) on the left breast.
