  • The Response of Elite European Merchant Companies to European Expansion Into Asia and the Americas, C.1492-C.1530
    The Response of Elite European Merchant Companies to European Expansion into Asia and the Americas, c.1492-c.1530 Eleanor Marie Russell Pembroke College November 2019 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Declaration This thesis is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my thesis has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the relevant Degree Committee. 2 Abstract The Response of Elite European Merchant Companies to European Expansion into Asia and the Americas, c.1492-c.1530 Eleanor Marie Russell This thesis analyses the multi-national European merchant-banking companies who dominated European commerce at the beginning of European engagement with the Americas and with Asia via the Cape Route, focusing upon how they responded to these changes. In the first decades of the sixteenth century, it was these companies, mostly from southern Germany and the Italian city-states, who dominated the European trade in Asian and American goods, whose capital funded Spanish and Portuguese royal policies overseas, and whose agents played crucial roles in establishing the Spanish and Portuguese empires and colonial trade.

  • Empire of Prints. the Imperial City of Augsburg and the Printed Image In
    OPUS Augsburg 2016 Peter Stoll Empire of Prints The Imperial City of Augsburg and the Printed Image in the 17th and 18th Centuries1 Detail from the frontispiece to David Langenmantel’s Historie des Regiments in des Heil. Röm. Reichs Stadt Augspurg (Augsburg 1734); engraving by Jakob Andreas Friedrich: Augsburg city hall; on top of the cartouche the pine cone from the city’s coat of arms; to the right the eagle signifying the Holy Roman Empire. 1 This text, in a Spanish translation, first served as one of the introductory essays in an exhibition catalogue dealing with Augsburg prints as modellos for baroque paintings in Quito, Ecuador (‘El imperio del grabado: La ciudad imperial de Augsburgo y la imagen impresa en los siglos XVII y XVIII’, in: Almerindo E. Ojeda, Alfonso Ortiz Crespo [ed.]: De Augsburgo a Quito: fuentes grabadas del arte jesuita quiteño del siglo XVIII, Quito 2015, pp. 17-66). For the present purpose, all passages of the text which only made sense in the context of the exhibition have been removed. Nonetheless, the 18th century bias of the text as well as the selection of artists which come under closer scrutiny still reflect the origins of the essay. As it was meant to address not only art historians, but also a general interest readership, it contains much basic information about print- making and the cultural history of Augsburg.

Gustafson June 2011 © 2011 Adam R. Gustafson All Rights Reserved 2 This dissertation titled The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth- Century Bavaria by ADAM R. GUSTAFSON has been approved for the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts _______________________________________________ Dora Wilson Professor of Music _______________________________________________ Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT GUSTAFSON, ADAM R., Ph.D., June 2011, Interdisciplinary Arts The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth- Century Bavaria Director of Dissertation: Dora Wilson Drawing from a number of artistic media, this dissertation is an interdisciplinary approach for understanding how artworks created under the patronage of Albrecht V were used to shape Catholic identity in Bavaria during the establishment of confessional boundaries in late sixteenth-century Europe. This study presents a methodological framework for understanding early modern patronage in which the arts are necessarily viewed as interconnected, and patronage is understood as a complex and often contradictory process that involved all elements of society. First, this study examines the legacy of arts patronage that Albrecht V inherited from his Wittelsbach predecessors and developed during his reign, from 1550-1579. Albrecht V‟s patronage is then divided into three areas: northern princely humanism, traditional religion and sociological propaganda.

  • Flags of the Pope's Swiss Guard Since 1798 Emil Dreyer
    Page 427 Emil Dreyer: Flags of the Pope’s Swiss Guard since 1798 Abstract: A chronological history of the flags of the Pope's Swiss Guard since the establishment of the Roman Republic in 1798 until today is presented and richly illustrated. Up to the first half of the 19th century only colour drawings can he used as a pictorial testimony of the guard’s flags, since no original flag from before that time is known to have survived. The flags used to he striped in the Medici livery colours blue, red and yellow and had the Pope's and the commander's arms painted on them. When a Pope or commander changed, the new arms were painted covering the old ones, so the flag fabric was rarely made new. A new flag design by Robert Diirrer with a white cross throughout was accepted in 1913 and blessed by Pope Pius X on 5 May 1914. Changes of a Pope and/or commander were now reflected on the flag by cutting out the old personal emblems and replacing them bv the new ones, the basic design remaining unchanged, hut in the course of the 20th century flags were made completely new more often. Original flag photographs document the history of the guard’s flags since the middle of the 19th century until present times with the flag under Pope Benedict XVI and commander Elmar Mdder. In a second part of this work the various flags of the veteran ’s association of the Pope’s Swiss Guard, founded in 1921, are presented.

  • French Protestantism, 1559-1562
    FRENCH PROTESTANTISM, 1559-1562 FRENCH PROTESTANTISM, 15^^9-1562 BY CALEB GUYER KELLY A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Board of University Studies of The Johns Hopkins University in Conformity with the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1916 Baltimore 1918 Copyright 1918 by THE JOHNS HOPKINS PRESS PRESS OF THE NEW ERA PRINTING COMPANY LANCASTER. PA. CONTENTS Pagb Preface , vii Chapter I. Social and Economic Forces 9 Chapter II. The Resources of the Huguenots ... 38 Chapter III. The Organization of the Calvinists.. 69 Chapter IV. The Reform at Its Height 88 Chapter V. Friends and Foes at Home and Abroad 118 Chapter VI. Guise or Valois ? 137 Chapter VII. The Arsenal of Protestantism 163 Bibliographical References 179 Index 183 PREFACE The brief period between 1559 and 1562, interlacing the reigns of Henry II and of two of his sons, Francis II and Charles IX, was momentous in the history of French " Protestantism. Consequently studies in diplomacy and la " haute politique of that epoch of four years have been vigorously pursued, but the social and economic questions have been inadequately treated. Indeed, much of the real nature of the reign of Henry II and of the growth of the Reform during his incumbency is obscure. Nothing like " " (lie Catalogue des Actes du roi Frangois Ier as yet exists for the reign of Henry II. Therefore it has seemed to the writer eminently desirable to begin an investigation of the development of Protestantism through the operation of social and economic forces, particularly among the indus trial and working classes. The economic activity of the Huguenots reveals one of the aspects of their social life, and their commerce forms one of the great chapters in world history.
