Prussian, Rhinelander Or German? Regional and National Identities in the Historical Novels of Clara Viebig Caroline Bland Prussian, Rhinelander or German? Regional and National Identities in the Historical Novels of Clara Viebig The foundation of the German Empire in 1871 required the acceptance of Prussian dominance by the other German states. The Imperial government in Berlin wished to redefine German culture and history to bring it in line with Prussian culture and history. Popular novels, especially in the fashionable historical mode, had an im- portant role to play in this consciousness-building exercise. Clara Viebig’s novels Die Wacht am Rhein (1902) and Das schlafende Heer (1904) may be seen both as part of this process and as critical reflections of it, insofar as they take the increas- ing influence of Prussia on the Rhineland and Poland as their subject matter. Al- though Viebig does portray her Prussian characters with empathy and some warmth, she is less sympathetic to Prussia’s expansionism and its effects on the lo- cal populations. It is therefore appropriate to ask whether her novels actually help to construct or to subvert a sense of national identity on the Prussian model in Im- perial Germany. The unification of Germany after the foundation of the Empire in 1871 was the culmination of a long and gradual process of Prussian expansion- ism which had continued throughout the nineteenth century. For the new Imperial government in Berlin it was vital to build a national identity which emphasised the centrality of Prussia to Germany as a whole. 1 Al- though economic and political dominance were the key factors in produc- ing a unified state, hegemony could only be achieved if all areas of cultural life – religion, education, art and history – were imbued with and defended the values which were traditionally perceived as Prussian. Popular culture had a large role to play in this consciousness-building process. With cin- ema in its infancy, popular novels, especially in the fashionable historical mode, could help to consolidate or even create a common history, com- 1 Compare Stefan Berger: The Search for Normality: National Identity and Historical Consciousness in Germany since 1800. Oxford 1997. P. 33: “Precisely because there was too little popular national identity, because the Reich was created as an alliance of sovereigns rather than a federal state, and because anti-Prussian feelings were far from absent in other German states, the unification process had to be aided by a conscious propagation of nationalist feeling.” See also John Breuilly: Nationalism and the State. Manchester 1993. Pp. 111f. 384 memorating past events, public figures and even customs. 2 One of the most successful and prolific writers in Germany in the early years of the twenti- eth century was Clara Viebig (1860-1952). Between 1897 and 1914 alone, she published fourteen novels, nine collections of Novellen, and five plays. Not only were most of her early novels bestsellers in the bookshops, they were also a permanent feature on the lists of the most frequently borrowed library books. Viebig was generally well-respected by contemporary cri- tics, who sometimes classified her as a Naturalist and sometimes as a Hei- matdichterin. Although most of her work had a contemporary setting, she also wrote several historical novels. Two of these, Die Wacht am Rhein (1902) and Das schlafende Heer (1904), explore Prussia’s struggle to maintain its hold on peripheral territories and the impact of this policy on local people. Questions of regional and national identity lie at the heart of these texts, and are shown to take precedence over politics and economics in the decisions taken by the characters. In this article I propose to consider the historical background to the texts and to examine Viebig’s presentation of how regional identity could develop into national identity and what fa- cilitated or hindered this process. I also examine to what extent Viebig equates specific value systems and religious beliefs with regional identity. The questions of regional and national identity affected her directly, be- cause her family connections with Posen, the Rhineland, the Eifel and Ber- lin made it difficult for her to identify solely with one particular region, and she used all four areas as settings for her fiction. Her parents were originally from the Grand Duchy of Posen (Poznan) and she spent many family holidays with her relatives there. Her father came from a family of Prussian estate-owners, who felt it was their task to uphold and defend the German language and customs against Polish nationalism in Posen. Viebig herself grew up in Düsseldorf, where her father held high office in the re- gional government from 1868 until 1881. She was born in Trier, however, and finished her education there in the household of a former colleague of her father’s. During this year, she accompanied her host, a Landsgerichts- rat, when he went to investigate cases in the Eifel villages and conse- quently she came to know the area very well. After her father’s death, she and her mother moved from Düsseldorf to Berlin, where she spent most of her adult life. 3 Viebig was also concerned to address topical issues in her work. These included the effects of industrialisation on rural communities, the rapid ex- 2 An exploration of the cultural aspects of national identity can be found in Anthony D. Smith: National Identity.

  • The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth As a Political Space: Its Unity and Complexity*
    Chapter 8 The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth as a Political Space: Its Unity and Complexity* Satoshi Koyama Introduction The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (Rzeczpospolita) was one of the largest states in early modern Europe. In the second half of the sixteenth century, after the union of Lublin (1569), the Polish-Lithuanian state covered an area of 815,000 square kilometres. It attained its greatest extent (990,000 square kilometres) in the first half of the seventeenth century. On the European continent there were only two larger countries than Poland-Lithuania: the Grand Duchy of Moscow (c.5,400,000 square kilometres) and the European territories of the Ottoman Empire (840,000 square kilometres). Therefore the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was the largest country in Latin-Christian Europe in the early modern period (Wyczański 1973: 17–8). In this paper I discuss the internal diversity of the Commonwealth in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and consider how such a huge territorial complex was politically organised and integrated. * This paper is a part of the results of the research which is grant-aided by the ‘Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research’ program of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science in 2005–2007. - 137 - SATOSHI KOYAMA 1. The Internal Diversity of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Poland-Lithuania before the union of Lublin was a typical example of a composite monarchy in early modern Europe. ‘Composite state’ is the term used by H. G. Koenigsberger, who argued that most states in early modern Europe had been ‘composite states, including more than one country under the sovereignty of one ruler’ (Koenigsberger, 1978: 202).

  • Jeder Treu Auf Seinem Posten: German Catholics
    JEDER TREU AUF SEINEM POSTEN: GERMAN CATHOLICS AND KULTURKAMPF PROTESTS by Jennifer Marie Wunn (Under the Direction of Laura Mason) ABSTRACT The Kulturkampf which erupted in the wake of Germany’s unification touched Catholics’ lives in multiple ways. Far more than just a power struggle between the Catholic Church and the new German state, the conflict became a true “struggle for culture” that reached into remote villages, affecting Catholic men, women, and children, regardless of their age, gender, or social standing, as the state arrested clerics and liberal, Protestant polemicists castigated Catholics as ignorant, anti-modern, effeminate minions of the clerical hierarchy. In response to this assault on their faith, most Catholics defended their Church and clerics; however, Catholic reactions to anti- clerical legislation were neither uniform nor clerically-controlled. Instead, Catholics’ Kulturkampf activism took many different forms, highlighting both individual Catholics’ personal agency in deciding if, when, and how to take part in the struggle as well as the diverse factors that motivated, shaped, and constrained their activism. Catholics resisted anti-clerical legislation in ways that reflected their personal lived experience; attending to the distinctions between men’s and women’s activism or those between older and younger Catholics’ participation highlights individuals’ different social and communal roles and the diverse ways in which they experienced and negotiated the dramatic transformations the new nation underwent in its first decade of existence. Investigating the patterns and distinctions in Catholics’ Kulturkampf activism illustrates how Catholics understood the Church-State conflict, making clear what various groups within the Catholic community felt was at stake in the struggle, as well as how external factors such as the hegemonic contemporary discourses surrounding gender roles, class status, age and social roles, the division of public and private, and the feminization of religion influenced their activism.

  • A Reassessment of the British and Allied Economic, Industrial And
    A Reassessment of the British and Allied Economic and Military Mobilization in the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars (1792-1815) By Ioannis-Dionysios Salavrakos The Wars of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Era lasted from 1792 to 1815. During this period, seven Anti-French Coalitions were formed ; France managed to get the better of the first five of them. The First Coalition was formed between Austria and Prussia (26 June 1792) and was reinforced by the entry of Britain (January 1793) and Spain (March 1793). Minor participants were Tuscany, Naples, Holland and Russia. In February 1795, Tuscany left and was followed by Prussia (April); Holland (May), Spain (August). In 1796, two other Italian States (Piedmont and Sardinia) bowed out. In October 1797, Austria was forced to abandon the alliance : the First Coalition collapsed. The Second Coalition, between Great Britain, Austria, Russia, Naples and the Ottoman Empire (22 June 1799), was terminated on March 25, 1802. A Third Coalition, which comprised Great Britain, Austria, Russia, Sweden, and some small German principalities (April 1805), collapsed by December the same year. The Fourth Coalition, between Great Britain, Austria and Russia, came in October 1806 but was soon aborted (February 1807). The Fifth Coalition, established between Britain, Austria, Spain and Portugal (April 9th, 1809) suffered the same fate when, on October 14, 1809, Vienna surrendered to the French – although the Iberian Peninsula front remained active. Thus until 1810 France had faced five coalitions with immense success. The tide began to turn with the French campaign against Russia (June 1812), which precipitated the Sixth Coalition, formed by Russia and Britain, and soon joined by Spain, Portugal, Austria, Prussia, Sweden and other small German States.

  • An Historical Conspectus of the Sources of Byelorussian Law
    110 THE JOURNAL OF BYELORUSSIAN STUDIES ■ An Historical Conspectus of the Sources of Byelorussian Law BY STANISLAŪ SAVICKI The extraordinary complexity of the political organisation and cultural development of the inhabitants of the Eastern Slavic lands are reflected in the growth of legal norms, in the concepts of law and order, and in the judicial organisation which prevailed in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Its history presents an interesting picture — several distinct cultural traditions competing with each other in an endeavour to form a cohesive whole, a political body, out of different ethnic groups, and to formulate a common civilisation, whilst allowing each distinct group to weave its own pattern into the common fabric, The development and organisation of the State were influenced both by the culture of the Latin West and by Greek Orthodoxy. Its national components included over half a dozen variegated ethnic and religious groups, — Byelorussians, Ukrainians, Lithuanians, Poles, Jews, Tartars, Germans and a small number of Greek traders. The first Byelorussian State, Polotian Ruś, was created in the middle of the XIth century by Prince Ūsiaslav, with Polack as its capital. The other Slavic principalities contemporary with Polack were, in the South, Kievan Ruś with Kiev as the capital, and Novgorod in the North. The period from the Xth to the XIIth century was marked by an almost perpetual struggle between the two predominant dynasties, — those of Polack and of Kiev. Little is known about politico-juridicial structure of society at this time, though it was characterised by the dominance of primitively democratic ideas in the social structure of the country, by social equality, and by an absence of class strife.

  • CHAPTER TWO Historical Background I Always Been Interested in History, Not That I Know a Lot About It, but in a More General Way
    CHAPTER TWO Historical Background I always been interested in history, not that I know a lot about it, but in a more general way. You can not do family history with out wondering what outside forces influenced people to remain in a certain place and others to move on, hopefully to a better life. In the early times of our Great-Great-Great Grandparents when the rulers of the people (Secular or Ecclesiastical) would sneeze the people would get pneumonia. Friedl and Friedel provided some history in their Summary. I would like to provide additional information about the area and German history that affected the village of Astheim and our ancestors, especially the Secularization of the Church. Astheim is a small village located on the Main river, an important tributary of the Rhine river in western Germany. This is an important grape growing region. Astheim located in an area known as Franconia {fran-kohn'-ee-uh} which consists of the central German lands in the Main River valley and forms the northern segment of the state of Bavaria in Germany. Franconia derived its name from the Franks who settled there early in the Middle Ages. After the Carolingian collapse, Franconia became one of the five tribal duchies of Germany. The nominal duchies of Eastern and Western Franconia emerged, but ecclesiastical princes--notably the archbishops of Mainz and the bishops of Wurzburg, Bamberg, and Speyer--later dominated the area. Most of this area eventually passed to Bavaria on the dissolution of the empire in 1803-06. Bavaria (Bayern) is a state, or land, in south-central Germany.

    Speech of His Royal Highness the Grand Duke at the State Banquet Hosted by Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress of Japan The Imperial Palace Tokyo - November 27, 2017 Majesties, I thank you with all my heart for the very warm hospitality that you have shown to us these days, in the middle of koyo as the green of nature transitions to red and yellow. The Grand Duchess, who, to her great regret, could not join me on this long journey, and I consider your personal invitation as a sign of friendship and affection for our people. Majesty, You have shown much affinity and integrity toward my father since first meeting him on the occasion of the accession of Elizabeth II in 1953. From state visits to private meetings, real bonds of affection have grown between our families. We are happy to be able to share with you these official moments as well as more personal moments, and thus appreciate your uniquely fine character, as that of the Empress. For all Westerners, the discovery of Japan and its civilization remains a unique experience. I remember very well the year of 1981, when I traveled your country incognito by bus. The Grand Duchess joined me at the end of the journey, which allowed us, as newlyweds, to discover many wonders including the island of Hokkaido. I was struck by the excellent education of the young people I met, because they knew Luxembourg despite being a distant country. The Japanese business world also deeply intrigued me with its emphasis on reaching a consensus to make decisions, which was not very common in our country.
