Introduction: Castles
Introduction: Castles Between the 9th and 10th centuries, the new invasions that were threatening Europe, led the powerful feudal lords to build castles and fortresses on inaccessible heights, at the borders of their territories, along the main roads and ri- vers’ fords, or above narrow valleys or near bridges. The defense of property and of the rural populations from ma- rauding invaders, however, was not the only need during those times: the widespread banditry, the local guerrillas between towns and villages that were disputing territori- es and powers, and the general political crisis, that inve- sted the unguided Italian kingdom, have forced people to seek safety and security near the forts. Fortified villages, that could accommodate many families, were therefore built around castles. Those people were offered shelter in exchange of labor in the owner’s lands. Castles eventually were turned into fortified villages, with the lord’s residen- ce, the peasants homes and all the necessary to the community life. When the many threats gradually ceased, castles were built in less endangered places to bear witness to the authority of the local lords who wanted to brand the territory with their power, which was represented by the security offered by the fortress and garrisons. Over the centuries, the castles have combined several functions: territory’s fortress and garrison against invaders and internal uprisings ; warehouse to gather and protect the crops; the place where the feudal lord administered justice and where horsemen and troops lived. They were utilised, finally, as the lord’s and his family residence, apartments, which were gradually enriched, both to live with more ease, and to make a good impression with friends and distinguished guests who often stayed there. -
[Innsbruck,] Sunday Night, Probably the 17Th
0149. LEOPOLD MOZART TO HIS WIFE , SALZBURG [Innsbruck,] Sunday night, probably the 17 th December , [1769] I have no current calendar anymore. After I announced myself by my hired servant, 1 His Excellency Count Spaur 2 |: the brother of our Cathedral Canon 3 in Salzburg :| not only immediately sent a message via his servant, [5] with his compliments, that his coach would bring me to him at 2 o’clock on Saturday afternoon, but also, along with his spouse, received me graciously and placed his coach at my service, an offer of which I then also made use. Early on Sunday, [10] I received a note from him in which he invited us to a concert at 5 o’clock, to take place at the home of His Excellency Count Leopold Künigl. 4 In the meantime, I made use of his coach, drove twice to Herr von Kalckhammer, 5 then to Baron Cristani ,6 where I chatted about all kinds of things for 3 quarters of an hour, then to His Excellency Baron Enzenberg 7 and finally, at 5 o’clock, to the concert . Wolfgang was given a very beautiful concerto , which he played there prima vista .8 [15] We were received, as usual, with all honours, and then accompanied home by His Excellency Count Spauer personally. In short, we are entirely satisfied. Tomorrow I intend to pack everything, which will go all the faster since I have not unpacked very much and on Tuesday, if God will, I intend to set off. [20] I send my most humble thanks to Herr von Schidenhofen, 9 both for the letter of recommendation he sent and for the apology which he kindly made on my behalf and which is also entirely founded. -
Baroque Architecture in the Former Habsburg Residences of Graz and Innsbruck
EMBODIMENTS OF POWER? Baroque Architecture in the Former Habsburg Residences of Graz and Innsbruck Mark Hengerer Introduction Having overcome the political, religious, and economic crisis of the Thirty Years' War, princes in central Europe started to reconstruct their palaces and build towns as monuments of power. Baroque residences such as Karlsruhe combine the princely palace with the city, and even the territory, and were considered para digms of rule in the age of absolutism.' In Austrian Vienna, both the nobility and the imperial family undertook reshaping the city as a baroque residence only after the second Ottoman siege in 1683. Despite the Reichsstif of Emperor Karl VI, the baroque parts of the Viennese Hofburg and the baroque summer residence of Sch6nbrunn were executed as the style itself was on the wane, and were still incomplete in the Enlightenment period.2 It may be stated, then, that the com plex symbolic setting of baroque Viennese architecture reveals the complex power relations between the House of Habsburg and the nobility, who together formed a SOft of "diarchy," so that the Habsburgs did not exercise absolutist rule. 3 Ad ditionally, it cannot be overlooked that the lower nobility and burghers, though hardly politically influential, imitated the new style, which was of course by no means protected by any sort of copyright.4 For all these reasons, reading baroque cities as embodiments of powers is prob lematic. Such a project is faced with a phenomenon situated between complex actual power relations and a more or less learned discourse on princely power and 10 architecture (which was part of the art realm as well), and princes, noblemen, and citizens inspired to build in the baroque style. -

(Every people will have its reaction; some will have a harsher experience, some a milder one; in short, every people will get the reaction it deserves.) Prince Aloys Liechtenstein, Das Neue Rei.eh, 6July 1919 I Revisionists without a Cause The end of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy left the (German-) Austrian republic with thousands of ennobled officers and civil servants. It can only be surmised that their politics were similar to those of the middle classes in general, which is why this essay will focus on the few dozen aristocratic families who were either large landowners or belonged to the charmed circle of families which had held hereditary seats in the old Austrian upper house. -

Unesco World Heritage Site Graz Unesco World Heritage Site Graz Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg
UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE GRAZ UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE GRAZ HISTORIC CENTRE AND SCHLOSS EGGENBERG Since 1 December 1999 the historic centre of Graz has been one of UNESCO’s ~ 1121 World Heritage Sites. The UNESCO Convention for the “Protection of Cultural and Natural Heritage” has been preserving World Heritage Sites as ideal possessions of all mankind since 1972. To put it briefy, the “Outstanding Universal Value” (OUV) of Graz meets criteria II and IV of the World Heritage Convention: ● The City of Graz and Schloss Eggenberg are examples of the living heritage of a city founded in the Middle Ages, shaped by Graz twice being the residence of the Habsburgs and by the cultural and artistic infuence of important noble families. ● Graz has a harmonious blend of architectural and artistic styles, which came from Central and Southern Europe between the Middle Ages and the 18th c. and were translated into outstanding masterpieces here. Styles from Gothic to Renaissance, Baroque and Historicism can be seen in a cohesive ensemble in the excellently preserved historic centre. The World Heritage Site of Graz was extended to include Schloss Eggenberg in 2010 and now has two core zones, surrounded and connected by a bufer zone. Both core zones and most of the bufer zone are subject to the Graz Historic Centre Protection Act, which preserves the characteristics of World Heritage as an urban monument. SIZE OF THE UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE ZONE The historic centre is located within the city fortifcations - built in the 16th c. - 17th c. It covers 0.71 km2 and includes the Schloßberg and parts of the districts of Gries and Lend. -
Primo@ Trubar in Gorizia and Friuli
Silvano Cavazza, Sebastiano Blancato UDK 274(453.3)"155/156": Trst 929 Trubar P. PRIMO@ TRUBAR IN GORIZIA AND FRIULI Trubar je oktobra 1563 pre`ivel tri tedne v gori{ki grofiji, kamor je prispel na povabilo nekaterih tamkaj{njih plemi~ev. Njegov obisk je kmalu dobil mednarodni pomen. Bene{ke oblasti, pape{ki nuncij v Benetkah in na Dunaju ter celo cesar Ferdinand I. so izdali uradne izjave neodobravanja, nasprotovanje pa ni prepre~ilo {iritve luteranstva v gori{ki grofiji. Bene{ka Furlanija je postala pomembna pot, preko katere so se ju`no od Alp {irile publikacije, izdane v Urachu. Anton Dalmata je bil do leta 1556 duhovnik v Huminu; iz Nem~ije je s pomo~jo {irokega kroga prijateljev {iril knjige po vsej Furlaniji, v Gorico in v smer Istre. Nicolas Pichler je po{iljal knjige iz Beljaka preko Trbi`a in doline reke Bele v Humin in Furlanijo. Po isti poti so v avstrijske de`ele prihajale tudi italijanske, nem{ke in slovanske knjige. [e ob koncu 16. stol. so bile knjige, tiskane v Urachu, zaplenjene v Gorici, Gradi{ki in Devinu. Zaradi tega so v Furlaniji poznali Trubarja celo protestantje italijanskega jezika. Leta 1567 je videmska inkvizicija radikalnega protestanta Bernardina della Zorza iz Vidma postavila pred sodi{~e, ker je slavil »na{ega velikega preroka Primo`a« in ga primerjal z Luthrom, Janom Husom in Girolamom Savonarolo. Luteranstvo, oglejski patriarh, Anton Dalmata, Stipan Konzul, Humin, protestantske knjige In October 1563 Trubar spent three weeks in the County of Gorizia upon the invitation of some local noblemen. -
