  • Jeder Treu Auf Seinem Posten: German Catholics
    JEDER TREU AUF SEINEM POSTEN: GERMAN CATHOLICS AND KULTURKAMPF PROTESTS by Jennifer Marie Wunn (Under the Direction of Laura Mason) ABSTRACT The Kulturkampf which erupted in the wake of Germany’s unification touched Catholics’ lives in multiple ways. Far more than just a power struggle between the Catholic Church and the new German state, the conflict became a true “struggle for culture” that reached into remote villages, affecting Catholic men, women, and children, regardless of their age, gender, or social standing, as the state arrested clerics and liberal, Protestant polemicists castigated Catholics as ignorant, anti-modern, effeminate minions of the clerical hierarchy. In response to this assault on their faith, most Catholics defended their Church and clerics; however, Catholic reactions to anti- clerical legislation were neither uniform nor clerically-controlled. Instead, Catholics’ Kulturkampf activism took many different forms, highlighting both individual Catholics’ personal agency in deciding if, when, and how to take part in the struggle as well as the diverse factors that motivated, shaped, and constrained their activism. Catholics resisted anti-clerical legislation in ways that reflected their personal lived experience; attending to the distinctions between men’s and women’s activism or those between older and younger Catholics’ participation highlights individuals’ different social and communal roles and the diverse ways in which they experienced and negotiated the dramatic transformations the new nation underwent in its first decade of existence. Investigating the patterns and distinctions in Catholics’ Kulturkampf activism illustrates how Catholics understood the Church-State conflict, making clear what various groups within the Catholic community felt was at stake in the struggle, as well as how external factors such as the hegemonic contemporary discourses surrounding gender roles, class status, age and social roles, the division of public and private, and the feminization of religion influenced their activism.

  • Baanrotsen in Brabant
    KU Leuven Faculty of Arts Blijde Inkomststraat 21 box 3301 3000 LEUVEN, BELGIË Baanrotsen in Brabant Title, power and nobility in the duchy of Brabant in the long fourteenth century Sarah De Decker Presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Advanced Master of Arts in Medieval and Renaissance Studies Supervisor: prof. dr. Hans Cools Academic year 2014-2015 164 096 characters ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In comparison to my dear friends and colleagues from the Advanced Master, it took me some time longer to finish my thesis. The main reason for this was the uncertainty that prevailed at the beginning of this research concerning the question whether I could find baanrotsen in sources for the thirteenth and fourteenth century other than the chronicle of Jan van Heelu. Every time this uncertainty came up, it was met with the positive and motivating spirit of my supervisor prof. dr. Hans Cools. For his patience with me these last two years, for his constant support and for all the encouraging discussions about baanrotsen and Brabant, I would like to sincerely thank him. The completion of this thesis would also never have been realised without the support of my family and friends. To my aunt in particular, Tante Mie, I owe special thanks. She always made time to scrutinize the spelling and grammar of this entire thesis and in doing so, she ensured that I did not had to be embarrassed about my English writing. I would also like to thank my best friends Marjon and Lies, my sister, for the reading, their support and all the hours they sacrificed to listening to all my thoughts and concerns.
