By accepting Christianity from the Czechs in 966, Poland entered the sphere of Latin influence. However, Polish lands lay on the outskirts of this Latin, Christian Europe. It was in the Middle Ages that the ethnic and territorial borders of Poland were established and its cultural identity developed. It is therefore worth nothing that the Byzantine-Ruthenian Orthodox Church was present on Polish territory as early as the reign of Bolesław the Brave (992–1025). When Kievan Ruthenia accepted Christianity, the influence of this state assumed a religious character. The political and cultural role of the Orthodox Church in Poland increased after the creation of the Halich-Volhynia Principality. During the reign of Prince Roman and later prince Daniel, the territory of this principality extended to the lands between the Wieprz and Bug rivers, including Lubachov, Peremysl, and even a large part of the Lublin region. In 1238, Daniel conquered Drohychyn, which opened the way for the Romanovich dynasty to expand their territory in the north1. As the territories grew so too did the Orthodox Church’s struc- ture develop. This structure developed formally in the middle of the thirteenth century, after the coronation of Prince Daniel in Drohychyn (1253). However, the attempt

In keeping with the Society’s stated aim to promote research on anglo-german relations, the theme chosen was religion and politics in medieval England and germany. the papers cover a wide span of time, from Carolingian Francia to England and germany in the late middle ages, but are held together by a common interest in the complex inter relationship of religion and politics in these years. they vary greatly in length, with some constituting little more than fully refer - enced versions of the orally delivered paper (nelson, Ormrod, and Fößel), and others representing very substantial studies in their own right (görich and Weiler). after a brief preface detailing the background to the collection, the book begins with an introduction (presumably by the editors, though this is not clearly stated). an overview of the volume’s aims is given, as well as summaries of the individual papers. there is little attempt to saying anything new here and the exercise seems to be designed to help the casual reader pick out which article(s) might be of interest. In any case, the summaries given are fair and judicious, although there are a few egregious slips.

  • Coins of Zurich Throughout History
    Coins of Zurich throughout History Not so long ago it was assumed that Zurich was founded in Roman times, and that the earliest coins of Zurich dated from the 9th century AD. In the meantime we know that Celtic tribes settled in Zurich long before the Romans – and that the first Zurich coins emerged about 1000 years earlier than hitherto believed, namely in the course of the 1st century BC. Hence our tour through the monetary history of Zurich starts in ancient Celtic times. Afterwards, however, no money was minted in Zurich over centuries indeed. Only under Eastern Frankish rule did the small town on the end of the lake become a mint again. And since then the Zurich mint remained in use – with longer and shorter discontuniations until 1848: then the Swiss franc was created as the single currency of Switzerland, and the coins from Zurich as well as all the rest of the circulating Swiss coins were devaluated and replaced. During the 1000 years between the minting of the first medieval coin of Zurich and the last money of the Canton of Zurich in 1848, our money served the most diverse purposes. It was used as means of payment and as article of trade, as measure of value and as savings and, last but not least, for prestige. The coins of Zurich reflect these various functions perspicuously – but see for yourself. 1 von 33 www.sunflower.ch Helvetia, Tigurini, Potin Coin (Zurich Type), Early 1st Century BC Denomination: AE (Potin Coin) Mint Authority: Tribe of the Tigurini Mint: Undefined Year of Issue: -100 Weight (g): 3.6 Diameter (mm): 19.0 Material: Others Owner: Sunflower Foundation Sometime around the beginning of the 1st century BC, Celts of the Tigurini tribe broke the ground of the Lindenhof in Zurich.

  • Real Wages and the Origins of Modern Economic Growth in Germany, 16Th to 19Th Centuries
    European Historical Economics Society EHES WORKING PAPERS IN ECONOMIC HISTORY | NO. 17 Real Wages and the Origins of Modern Economic Growth in Germany, 16th to 19th Centuries Ulrich Pfister Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Jana Riedel Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Martin Uebele Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster APRIL 2012 EHES Working Paper | No. 17 | April 2012 Real Wages and the Origins of Modern Economic Growth in Germany, 16th to 19th Centuries Ulrich Pfister Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Jana Riedel Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Martin Uebele Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Abstract The study develops a real wage series for Germany c. 1500-1850 and analyzes its relationship with population size. From 1690 data density allows the estimation of a structural time series model of this relationship. The major results are the following: First, there was a strong negative relationship between population and the real wage until the middle of the seventeenth century. The dramatic rise of material welfare during the Thirty Years’ War was thus entirely due to the war-related population loss. Second, the relationship between the real wage and population size was weaker in the eighteenth than in the sixteenth century; the fall of the marginal product of labor was less pronounced, and the beginning of the eighteenth century saw a marked increase of labour demand. Third, labor productivity underwent a strong positive shock during the late 1810s and early 1820s, and continued to rise at a weaker pace during the following decades. This growth was only temporarily interrupted by negative shocks during the late 1840s and early 1850s. Results two and three suggest the onset of sustained economic growth well before the beginnings of industrialization, which set in during the third quarter of the nineteenth century.

  • Kipper Und Wipper Crisis the Kipper Und Wipper Crisis (1618-23) Occurred in the City States of the Holy Roman Empire and Began with the Thirty Years War
    Kipper und Wipper Crisis The Kipper und Wipper crisis (1618-23) occurred in the city states of the Holy Roman Empire and began with the Thirty Years War. It remains one of the strangest episodes in economic history.i The origin of this crisis dates back several decades before the crisis unfolded. In the mid-16th century, the empire had established a legal framework regarding the weight and content of precious metals in money. However, the monetary standard for low and middle value coins was set too high, meaning that production costs for minting small coins was excessive. This meant that the mints were making a loss when producing these smaller coins. The mints responded by reducing the silver content in these coins, meaning that the precious metals content of these coins was already significantly below the prescribed standards even before the Thirty Years’ War broke out.ii With excessive money, inflation inevitably began to rise. Between 1582 and 1609, the imperial currency lost about 20 percent of its value. But things were about to get a lot worse.iii Initially, the economy picked up as the increased circulation of cash boosted output. However, prices also rose, with the moderate inflation affecting those on fixed incomes. With war looming, thousands of Germany’s rival rulers began to hoard cash to pay for the war. They also engaged in economic warfare by adding copper to the silver in coins and allowing the debased currency to leak back into the neighboring states. Initially, debasement was limited to one’s own territory, which the leaders used to build up their war chests.

  • Introduction MARY LINDEMANN and JARED POLEY
    Introduction MARY LINDEMANN AND JARED POLEY he European Commission, the European Central Bank, and the Inter- Tnational Monetary Fund agreed in May 2010 to provide a package of EUR 110 billion meant to provide financial assistance to Greece. More than EUR 22 billion of those came from Germany. This so-called first bailout (a second bailout package followed in 2012 and a third, worth EUR 86 billion, in August 2015), which was meant to confront the Greek government-debt crisis brought on by the housing bubble and the global recession, revealed the eco- nomic and political fault lines of the European Union and the eurozone. The bailout was represented in the German popular-right press as a catastrophe. Bild bluntly counseled in its headline of 27 October 2010: “Sell your islands, you bankrupt Greeks . and the Acropolis too!” [“Verkauft doch eure Inseln, ihr Pleite-Griechen . und die Akropolis gleich mit!”].1 German Chancellor Angela Merkel took a different line, indicating the importance of financial stability to the continued political dream of Europe. “The euro is our common fate,” Merkel argued in December 2010, “and Europe is our common future.”2 Those ideals would be tested repeatedly over the next five years, in the debates about whether a third bailout package should be extended to Greece. Merkel promoted the value of a unified Europe, but as she explained in a speech to the Bundestag, while the euro may have indeed created a European Schicksals­ gemeinschaft—a community of fate—it nonetheless demanded a political vision of Europe that was also founded as a Rechts­ und Verantwortungsgemeinschaft, a community of law and responsibility.3 Money, these developments made clear, was the foundation and the lubricant of the New Europe.

Monetary and Social Dependence in Financing the Early Thirty Years War STEFFEn LEinS At the beginning of the Thirty Years War Emperor Ferdinand ii was facing a financial crisis. in 1620 he had defeated the rebellious Protestant nobles of the Confœderatio Bohemica in the Battle of White Mountain before the gates of Prague. This had required signficant financial, and partly also military support from Bavaria, Saxony, Spain, and the Pope. now mercenaries had to be discharged in order to prevent them from mutinying. But the emperor’s coffers were empty and the usual means of financing seemed to have been ex - hausted. So Ferdinand felt compelled to resort to a network of intel - ligent financiers. As a result, a remarkable secret contract was signed
