  • Fortification Renaissance: the Roman Origins of the Trace Italienne
    FORTIFICATION RENAISSANCE: THE ROMAN ORIGINS OF THE TRACE ITALIENNE Robert T. Vigus Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2013 APPROVED: Guy Chet, Committee Co-Chair Christopher Fuhrmann, Committee Co-Chair Walter Roberts, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Vigus, Robert T. Fortification Renaissance: The Roman Origins of the Trace Italienne. Master of Arts (History), May 2013, pp.71, 35 illustrations, bibliography, 67 titles. The Military Revolution thesis posited by Michael Roberts and expanded upon by Geoffrey Parker places the trace italienne style of fortification of the early modern period as something that is a novel creation, borne out of the minds of Renaissance geniuses. Research shows, however, that the key component of the trace italienne, the angled bastion, has its roots in Greek and Roman writing, and in extant constructions by Roman and Byzantine engineers. The angled bastion of the trace italienne was yet another aspect of the resurgent Greek and Roman culture characteristic of the Renaissance along with the traditions of medicine, mathematics, and science. The writings of the ancients were bolstered by physical examples located in important trading and pilgrimage routes. Furthermore, the geometric layout of the trace italienne stems from Ottoman fortifications that preceded it by at least two hundred years. The Renaissance geniuses combined ancient bastion designs with eastern geometry to match a burgeoning threat in the rising power of the siege cannon. Copyright 2013 by Robert T. Vigus ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the assistance and encouragement of many people.

Medieval Europe between 5th and 8th centuries, also referred to as the Dark Ages was marked by rise of numerous short-lived barbarian kingdoms and a period of general instability that delivered the final blow to long distance trade and manufacture for export as it was no longer safe to travel to any distance, especially after the Muslim conquests in the 7th and 8th centuries.

  • Colonization and the Church in High Medieval Sardinia
    Colonization and the Church in High Medieval Sardinia by Ann Wesson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright 2015 by Ann Wesson Colonization and the Church in High Medieval Sardinia Ann Wesson Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This thesis investigates the role that the Church played in the political, spiritual and economic colonization of Sardinia in the high Middle Ages. By using Robert Bartlett’s conception of the European “center” and “periphery,” it shows that Sardinia represents an unusual case of a territory that was culturally both central and peripheral. Within this ambiguous cultural setting, and using papal letters, political treaties, chronicles, monastic documents, and onomastic evidence, the thesis examines the way Pisa, Genoa and the Roman pontiffs used Rome’s spiritual and cultural authority to strengthen their own political and economic claims in Sardinia. Specifically, by focusing on the archbishop of Pisa and the bishops and archbishops of Sardinia, it shows that the personnel of the Church, which are not commonly considered agents of colonization in Sardinia, were in reality fundamental to bringing Sardinian society closer to being a political and cultural extension of the Italian mainland. It also, however, investigates the ways in which local Sardinian rulers at times strongly resisted ecclesiastical pressures to conform to the norms of Rome, or used the spiritual prestige and cultural tools offered by the Roman Church to negotiate political advantages for themselves. In this way, the thesis finds that foreign cultural colonization in Sardinia was at times less effective than is generally assumed, and that in certain situations the personnel of the Sardinian Church could offer the means for resistance to foreign colonization.

  • The Crusades Questions
    DACQ December 2008 Study Guide: Dynasty Academic Competition The Crusades Questions The Crusades The First Crusade (1096-1099): Who: Led by Godfrey and Baldwin of Bouillon. Other important figures include Stephen, Count of Blois and Raymond IV of Toulouse. Opposed by Seljuk Kijid Arslan. Why: Alexius I Comnenus, the Byzantine emperor, is imperiled and his capital of Constantinople threatened. Urban II calls for a crusade at the Council of Claremont. A huge response of over 150,000 zealous and variously trained and equipped Christians sweeps into the near east. Result: Levant (the land that contains modern-day Israel, Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan) and Anatolia (Turkey) were claimed in a decisive Crusader victory following sieges of Antioch and Jerusalem. Other Facts: Included the phases known as the Peasant's Crusade and the German Crusade (in which numerous Jewish strongholds and towns were attacked and pillaged). It was followed by the far less important Crusade of the Faint-Hearted. Most importantly, the Crusade Kingdoms were founded: Edessa, Antioch, Tripoli, Cilicia, and the Kingdom of Jerusalem. The Fatimid dynasty retained control of Egypt and the Byzantines held Cyprus. The Second Crusade (1145-1149): Who: First crusade led directly by European kings (Conrad III of Germany, Louis VII of France), who assisted Baldwin II of Jerusalem. Opposed by Muin Anar, Vizier of Damascus, who was supported by Nuradin. Why: Edessa, the easternmost crusader state, had fallen out of Christian control and Baldwin II had actually been capture at the Battle of Harran. Against Byzantine emperor Manuel I Comnenus's objections, Pope Eugene III called for European forces to march through Anatolia and re-secure the Holy Land.

  • The German Migrations to Volhynia William Remus 10/4/2020 Introduction
    The German Migrations to Volhynia William Remus 10/4/2020 Introduction It is often very difficult to find where your family originated in Germany prior to traveling to Volhynia. There are several reasons why this problem occurs: • The records currently available for Volhynia are limited. • The death records often lack details like birthplace and date of birth. • The marriage records of the bride and groom often lack details like birthplace, parent’s names, and date of birth. • There are no formal immigration records available in Volhynia. • Such information is also lacking for records from other areas of Russian Occupied Poland. • Our ancestors often migrated over a period of generations and a number of regions. However, the pattern of migrations from the German states into areas of Prussian controlled Poland are fairly well known and there are some records available. Also why these moves were made are often well known and will be detailed as we go. What I will try to do with this paper is to briefly detail the major small migrations into eastern Europe. In the case of each migration I can provide some links that provided the family names involved in the migration and where they had settled at crucial dates like 1772 and 1794. Additionally I will provide a brief history of each destination area and maps to give you a general idea where these areas of migration were. In multistep migration to Volhynia the maps will also aid you in where they stopped along the way. The story starts about 1600. The state of Germany prior to 1700 Germany was not a unified state in 1600.

It would be absurd to suppose that a History of Germany could be written within the compass of 300 pages. The merest outline is all that could be given in this little book, and very much of vast interest and im- portance has necessarily been omitted. But some knowledge of the political events of former days is necessary for all persons—more especially trav- ellers—who desire to understand and appreciate the customs, buildings, paintings, etc., of any country, and it is hoped that short continental histories may be useful to many who have not time or opportunity for closer study. My aim in the present volume has been simply to give one marked characteristic of each King or Emperor's reign, so as to fix it in the memory; and to show how Prussia came to hold its present position of importance amongst the continental powers of Europe. Emily Hawtrey. iiL BOOK I. HISTORY OF GERMANY. INTRODUCTION. CHAPTER I. The mighty Teutonic or German race in Europe did not begin to play its part in history until the decline of the Roman Empire ; but we must all of us feel the warm- est interest in it when it does begin, for it represents not only the central history of Europe in the Middle Ages, but also the rise of our own forefathers in their home and birthplace of Germany.

    The Power Configurations of the Central Civilization/ World System in the Twelfth Century DAVID WILKINSON Department of Political Science University of California, Los Angeles [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper is the fifteenth in a series in which the political careers of civilizations/world systems receive snapshot codings of their overall power structures at feasible intervals. The narratives are produced by collating histories with large frames of reference. The codings are done using a nominal variable, polarity, with seven available values: nonpolarity, multipolarity, tripolarity, bipolarity, (nonhegemonic) unipolarity, hegemony and empire. Previous articles in the series have examined the Indic system 550 BC-AD 1800, the Far Eastern 1025 BC – AD 1850, the Southwest Asian c 2700 – 1500 BC, the Northeast African c. 2625-1500 BC. The Northeast African and Southwest Asian systems and sequences merged c. 1500 BC to form the Central system. A previous article has coded this system from 1500 BC to 700 BC, and previous papers have examined the system from AD 1200 to date. In the current paper, the Central system’s power structure is coded at 10-year intervals 1100-1200. The century is entirely multipolar, although there is significant turnover among actors and churning of borders.
