  • Disregarding Norms: Emperor Charles VI and His Intimate Relationships
    2019 VI Disregarding Norms: Emperor Charles VI and His Intimate Relationships Charlotte Backerra Article: Disregarding Norms: Emperor Charles VI and His Intimate Relationships Disregarding Norms: Emperor Charles VI and His Intimate Relationships Charlotte Backerra UNIVERSITY OF GÖTTINGEN Abstract: Emperor Charles VI (1685-1740) followed his parents in the Habsburg, devout Catholic principles of the pietas austriaca. This meant that, as emperor, Charles saw himself as guardian of the Church of Rome, a role that he emphasized in imperial and dynastic politics, architecture, and his private diaries. These diaries show the importance he placed on religion through daily religious services. But Charles VI also wrote about court life, dynastic politics, his family, and, most importantly, his intimate partners. According to his diaries, he had sexual relationships with both women and men, but only two relationships of an emotionally intimate nature: the first with his closest friend and confidant, Michael Johann Count Althann (1679- 1722), the second with his wife Empress Elisabeth Christine (1691-1750). The male-male relationships, including with a hunter’s boy, have not seemed compatible with his Catholic beliefs to researchers since the nineteenth century. Based on the theory of “norm competition” for early modern times, this article contextualizes the religious beliefs of Charles VI and his sexual and intimate relationships and takes the concept further to show that, in regards to intimate or emotional relationships, religious, legal, or gender norms could, at least by a monarch, be disregarded even in the early modern period. Keywords: Emperor Charles VI; pietas austriaca; intimate relationships; norm competition; disregarding norms mperor Charles VI (1685-1740) and his wife Elisabeth Christine (1691-1750) were a traditional dynastic couple.1 Charles (VI) was the son of Emperor Leopold I and the younger brother of Emperor Joseph I.

  • Representations of English History in Icelandic Kings‟ Saga: Haraldssaga Hardrada and Knytlinga Saga
    REPRESENTATIONS OF ENGLISH HISTORY IN ICELANDIC KINGS‟ SAGA: HARALDSSAGA HARDRADA AND KNYTLINGA SAGA A Master‟s Thesis By DENĠZ CEM GÜLEN Department of History Ġhsan Doğramacı Bilkent University Ankara August 2015 REPRESENTATIONS OF ENGLISH HISTORY IN ICELANDIC KINGS‟ SAGA: HARALDSSAGA HARDRADA AND KNYTLINGA SAGA Graduate School of Economics and Social Sciences of Ġhsan Doğramacı Bilkent University by DENĠZ CEM GÜLEN In Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY ĠHSAN DOĞRAMACI BILKENT UNIVERSTY ANKARA August 2015 Abstract REPRESENTATIONS OF ENGLISH HISTORY IN ICELANDIC KINGS‟ SAGA: HARALDSSAGA HARDRADA AND KNYTLINGA SAGA Gülen, Deniz Cem Gülen MA, Department of History Supervisor: Assistant Professor Dr. David Thornton August, 2015 The Icelandic sagas are one of the most important historical sources for Viking studies. Although there are many different types of saga, only the kings‟ sagas and family sagas are generally considered historically accurate to some extent. Unfortunately, because they were composed centuries after the Viking age, even these sagas contain a number of historical inaccuracies. In this research, I will try to discuss this problem by focusing on the Heimskringla version of King Harald‟s saga and the Knýtlinga saga, and how English history is represented in them. After discussing the nature of the sagas and the problems of the Icelandic sources, I will consider the saga accounts of certain events that occurred in England during the reigns of Harald Hardrada and Cnut the Great. In order to show the possible mistakes in these sagas, primary sources from outside of Scandinavia and Iceland, notably the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, as well as modern studies, will be used to assess these possible errors in the Heimskringla and Knýtlinga saga.

  • From the Viking Age to the Middle Ages
    Part III: Ritual Actions in Different Areas of Confrontation Hostages in peace processes The purpose of this part of the book is to elucidate how the giv- ing and taking of hostages can be understood within a ceremony (or several ceremonies). The analysis must in part be carried out as a reconstruction because the medieval writers sometimes saw the giving and taking of hostage as irrelevant during negotiations: there were more important events to describe, such as the con- version of heathens. At the same time it is important to under- stand the use of a hostage as a major or essential part of a wider context: the peace process. The central parts of ceremonies are also analysed in this part, the treatment of the hostages, and how they were valued as persons. These ceremonial patterns may have taken altering expressions – regulations, and procedures – in dif- ferent areas of confrontation and must therefore be understood by identifying their contextual factors. Initially Anglo-Saxon areas of confrontation are described and analysed, as well as some other contexts. In particular, it is emphasized that there were specific conditions for each individual conflict, with a subsequent peace, where personal interests may have been decisive for the outcome as well as other social mechanisms related to competitive group- ings. Additional examples will also be taken from other confron- tational areas involving Scandinavians: the Carolingian Empire, Denmark, and Norway. How to cite this book chapter: Olsson, S. 2019.

The research focuses on the use of stones, carved with runic inscriptions that have been discovered in Okla- homa, Maine, Rhode Island and Minnesota. The thesis discusses orthographic traits found in the in- scriptions and gives evidence that links their primary use to fourteenth century Gotland.

  • Guidelines for Using the Index of Persons and Places
    Guidelines for Using the Index of Persons and Places The index contains the names of more than 15,000 persons and places mentioned in Witt’s diary. In addition, it contains over 1,000 references that are meant to assist the reader in finding specific persons and places. The comments below are intended to help facilitate use of the index and to explain the possibilities and limits for indexing of names of persons and places mentioned in Witt’s diary. Page numbers and volumes in the index refer to page numbers and volumes of the manuscript. The page numbers of the manuscript are inserted in brackets in the present text. Persons The index encompasses all specifically named real individuals. Indirect mention of or allusion to a person, where the person’s name is not mentioned, have not been included (thus, for example, the mention of a person by indication of his/her family relationship or formal office − e.g. ‘his brother,’ ‘the mayor of Lima’). A person’s name is likewise not indexed if the name itself is not mentioned but rather only an artifact named after the individual (e.g. ‘Trajan’s Column’). However, the person’s name is indexed if it is part of the name of a business firm, such as ‘Antony Gibbs and Sons,’ although ‘and sons’ here would not be included in the entry. If families, spouses, or the children of a family are indexed as a couple or a group, wherever possible they are indexed individually with their first name as well. If the first name is not known, then wherever possible an addition is included (such as the word ‘family’ or ‘Mr., Mrs., Miss, Ms.’) in order to indicate whether the referent is a family, a man or boy, a woman or girl.

WILKINS M.A., F.S.A. " Author of" The Love ofan Uncrowned Queen," and Caroline the Illustrious, Queen Consort of George II." WITH ILLUSTRATIONS IN TWO VOLUMES VOL. I. LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO. 39 PATERNOSTER ROW, LONDON NEW YORK AND BOMBAY 1904 PREFACE SOME years ago, when visiting Celle in connection with a book I was writing on Sophie Dorothea, The Love of an Uncrowned Queen, I found, in an unfrequented garden outside the town, a grey marble monument of unusual beauty. Around the base ran an inscription to the effect that it was erected in loving memory of Caroline Matilda, Queen of Denmark and Norway, Princess of Great Britain and Ireland, who died at Celle in 1775, at the age of twenty-three years. To this may be traced the origin of this book, for until I saw the monument I had not heard of this English Princess a sister of George III. The only excuse to be offered for this ignorance is that it is shared by the great majority of Englishmen. For though the romantic story of Caroline Matilda is known to every Dane she is the Mary Stuart of Danish history her name is almost forgotten in the land of her birth, and this despite the fact that little more than a century ago her imprisonment nearly led to a war between England and Denmark.
