  • Transcultural Assemblages of Prince Hermann Von Pückler-Muskau (1785–1871) and Machbuba/Ajiamé/Bilillee Freya Schwachenwald
    Art, Nature, Ghosts, and Ice Cream: Transcultural Assemblages of Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau (1785–1871) and Machbuba/Ajiamé/Bilillee Freya Schwachenwald Introduction Walking through Cottbus, Brandenburg, Germany, it is almost impossible to miss the visual presence one of its most famous local personas: from billboards at the train station to an eponymous bus line, Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau (1785–1871) seems omnipresent as a local historical figure and as a welcome vehicle for tourism marketing. When visitors direct their steps through his former park in Branitz at the outskirts of Cottbus, they will most likely come across an unexpected sight: two earthen pyramids. One of them is located in the middle of a artifical lake. Primary and historiographical sources tell us that this pyramid was built by Pückler in the 1850s and that it encases his remains, as envisioned by him while commissioning the construction.1 The pyramid was finished in 1856, fifteen years before Pückler’s death.2 No plaque commemorates him on the pyramid. Pückler and his wife Lucie von Hardenberg (1776–1854) are only commemorated by a stone with a cross, erected posthumously on another small island of the lake. Today, the pyramid, as well as the surrounding park and its castle are maintained by the Stiftung Fürst Pückler Museum Schloss und Park Branitz (Prince Pückler Castle Museum and Branitz Park Foundation). The foundation describes its namesake and the former owner of the castle and park as “one of the greatest European landscape artists, a dandy, ladies’ man, ingenious socialite, connoisseur of exquisite food and namesake to an 1 Siegfried Neumann, “Die Begräbnisstätten im Branitzer Park,” in Pückler, Pyramiden, Panorama: neue Beiträge zur Pücklerforschung, ed.

  • Churches of Peace (Poland) Protestants Were Persecuted and Deprived of the Right and Possibility to Practise Their Faith
    for his subjects. At that time Silesia was a part of the Catholic Habsburg monarchy. In most of the province Churches of Peace (Poland) Protestants were persecuted and deprived of the right and possibility to practise their faith. Through the agency of the No 1054 Lutheran king of Sweden, the Emperor finally allowed (1651–52) the erection of three churches, henceforth known as the Churches of Peace, in Silesian principalities under direct Habsburg rule in Glogow (Glogau), which ceased to exist in the 18th century, Jawor (Jauer), and Swidnica (Schweidnitz) in the south-west part of present-day Poland. The Emperor’s consent was, however, given upon conditions Identification that were difficult to comply with. The churches had to be built exclusively of perishable materials (wood and clay), Nomination Churches of Peace in Jawor and Swidnica located outside city walls, and built in a limited period of time. These restrictions, together with the need to provide Location Historic region of Silesia, Principality of adequate space for large crowds of worshippers, forced the Swidnica and Jawor architect, Albrecht von Sabisch (1610–88), a prominent master-builder and fortification designer active in Wroclaw, State Party Republic of Poland to implement pioneering constructional and architectural solutions of a scale and complexity unknown ever before or Date 30 June 2000 since in wooden architecture.

  • District Heating in Lusatia
    Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg District Heating in Lusatia Status Quo and Prospects for Climate Neutrality Fernwärme in der Lausitz Status quo und Perspektiven für Klimaneutralität Thesis for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental and Resource Management submitted by Jan Christian Bahnsen 1st Examiner: Prof. Dr. Bernd Hirschl 2nd Examiner: Katharina Heinbach Submitted: 29th May 2020 Statement of Authentication I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this master thesis and that I have not used any other sources other than those listed in the bibliography and identified as references. I further declare that I have not submitted this thesis at any other institution in order to obtain a degree. The content, either in full or in part, has not been previously submitted for grading at this or any other academic institution. ________________________________ _____________________________________ (Place, Date) (Signature) Abstract The master thesis at hand examines the potential of district heating in Lusatia. The thesis follows the approach of first identifying technical and economic potentials in general and then transferring them to the study region. For the quantitative determination of district heating potential in Lusatia, the status quo is determined and a GIS-based analysis is carried out with regard to minimum heat demand densities. The extent to which district heating is suitable for climate-neutral heat supply will be investigated using the potential of renewable and waste heat energy sources. Furthermore, the regional economic effects of developing these potentials are examined. The results show that despite an overall decline in heat demand, there is potential to increase the relative share of district heating in Lusatia.

IDENTITY,KNOWLEDGE,LANDSCAPE: BIOGRAPHY AND SPACE IN PÜCKLER’S WORK Ulf Jacob Technische Universität Berlin Prince Hermann Ludwig Heinrich von Pückler-Muskau, the “inveterate traveler to all points and to nowhere,” as Heine dubbed him, was a complex figure who continues to be difficult to fathom. Labels such as landscape designer, successful author, and globe-trotter, or ladies’ man, enfant terrible, and melancholic eccentric capture only some facets of a personality that poses a challenge to researchers. To understand the twists and turns in his life and work, we must try to grasp the distinct details conveyed in the abundant source material and to understand them as the remains of a historically evolved totality. The present study at- tempts to do justice to this challenge. It rests on the assumption that the ensemble of expressions of Pückler’s life can be viewed as the manifes- tation of a continuity between action and meaning. This continuity was centered inwardly on a core of individual character traits, and at the same time it corresponded outwardly to the socioeconomic, political and cul- tural conditions of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
