There are strong exceptions to Orr’s conclusion, including the works of Jeroen Duidam and T.C.W. Blanning, which compare the culture, structure, and politics of Early Modern courts revealing both change and continuity but these stud- ies devote little space to the specific role of the queen consort within her family and court.

    LANDTAG R HEINLA ND -PFALZ Drucksache 16/ 16 .Wahlperiode 4353 11. 12. 2014 Kleine Anfrage des Abgeordneten Christian Baldauf (CDU) und Antwort des Ministeriums des Innern, für Sport und Infrastruktur Grundversorgung mit leistungsfähigem Breitband im Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis Die Kleine Anfrage 2849 vom 20. November 2014 hat folgenden Wortlaut: Ich frage die Landesregierung: 1. Welche Breitband-Projekte im Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis wurden seit 2010 gefördert, mit welchem Fördersatz, in welcher Höhe und über welches Förderprogramm? 2. Wie hoch ist die Quote der Breitbandversorgung im Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis für unterschiedliche Technologien (unterschiedliche Breit - band-Leistungen)? 3. Wie beurteilt die Landesregierung die Breitbandversorgung für den Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis? 4. Inwiefern hält die Landesregierung weitere Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung der Breitbandversorgung im Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis für erforderlich? 5. Inwiefern unterstützt die Landesregierung einen Ausbau der Breitbandversorgung im Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis auf flächendeckende 50 Mbit/s? Das Ministerium des Innern, für Sport und Infrastruktur hat die Kleine Anfrage namens der Landes regierung mit Schreiben vom 10. Dezember 2014 wie folgt beantwortet: Vorbemerkung: Die Landesregierung hat hinsichtlich des Auf- und Ausbaus von Breitbandinfrastrukturen viel erreicht. Die Verfügbarkeit von schnellem Internet mit 50 Mbit/s hat sich in den letzten drei Jahren mehr als verdoppelt von 27,2 Prozent (Ende 2011) auf heute 58,3 Prozent (Mitte 2014). Bereits 70,2 Prozent der Haushalte können auf Bandbreiten von mindestens 30 Mbit/s zurückgreifen.

  • Matrimony and Monarchy: the Failure of Bourbon-Habsburg Matrimonial Alliance
    Matrimony and Monarchy: The Failure of Bourbon-Habsburg Matrimonial Alliance Dr Samra Sarfraz Khan* Irum Iqbal Hussain** Abstract The research paper titled “Matrimony and Monarchy: The Failure of Bourbon-Habsburg Matrimonial Alliance,” is an in depth study of the matrimonial alliance between the Bourbon and Habsburg dynasties through the marriage of Louis XIV; the King of France, with the Spanish hieress Maria Theresa. This matrimonial alliance, which was arranged to start a new era of Franco-Spanish relations in the seventeenth century, was one of the many similar examples that had been followed in state craft from the earliest times. The paper serves a two-fold purpose: to bring to light the unsuccessful nature of this marriage, and to probe the various reasons for which the alliance was a failure in the very quintessence of a marriage. The paper highlights the factors that contributed in not only keeping the matrimonial alliance into a contentious relationship between Maria Theresa and Louis XIV but also in causing a decline in the political ties between the French and Spanish kingdoms. The research paper, thus, caters to an aspect in the study of matrimonial alliances that remains largely unexplored. Keywords: Matrimonial alliance, Bourbon, Hapsburg, monarch, expansion. * Samra Sarfraz Khan, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Department of History, University of Karachi ** Irum Iqbal Hussain, Graduate Student, Institute of Ismaili Studies (IIS), UK 15 Jhss, Vol. 10, No. 2, July to December, 2019 Introduction The matrimonial alliance of Louis XIV and Maria Theresa was one in a series of similar state alliances that took place between the Bourbon and Habsburg royal families in their days of glory days.

  • 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.

  • 6 Stefan Kwiatkowski [696] Be Interpreted As a Search for the Ideal Anti-World for Modern Contemporaneity
    ZAPISKI HISTORYCZNE — TOM LXXX — ROK 2015 Zeszyt 4 http://dx.doi.org/10.15762/ZH.2015.51 STEFAN KWIATKOWSKI (University of Szczecin) WEST-POMERANIAN MEDIEVALISM: THE OUTLINE OF THE PROBLEM Key words: cultural medievalism, historiographic medievalism, historiography, West Pomerania 1. Introduction The subject matter of medievalism is the existence of elements of medieval culture in subsequent epochs. It was Agnieszka Kruszyńska who expressed the essence of the phenomenon: “I use the term «medievalism» to refer to the total use of medieval elements in contemporary culture”1. In a more strict sense, me- dievalism may be defined as an area of research interest which is not a separate scientific discipline2. As a result, it comprises a variety of research on the history of literature, art (including music, dance and theatre), architecture and urban studies along with the preservation of monumental buildings. In a broader sense, it also includes the awareness of the continuation of medieval religion, politics, or the economy. In fact, in each field of culture understood in broad terms there exist antecedents referring to the medieval period. The presence of elements from the past constitutes part of the present of each epoch. Cultural medievalism appeared in the West as a phenomenon accompanying Romanticism. However, it did not merely mean romantic references to the Middle Ages or the commemoration of medieval times, but the generally accepted method of expressing contemporary ideas and problems with the use of medieval requi- sites. Architectural objects, paintings, sculptures, literature and the design of pub- lic ceremonies served this purpose. Generally speaking, the phenomenon could 1 Agnieszka Kruszyńska, Średniowieczność w literaturze i kulturze XX wieku.
