  • The Radziwiłł Cousins, Prophecies and False News in Mid-Seventeenth-Century Europe
    137 WSCHODNI ROCZNIK HUMANISTYCZNY TOM XVII (2020), No 3 s. 137-154 doi: 10.36121/hmazheika.17.2020.3.137 Hanna Mazheika (National Historical Archives of Belarus) ORCID 0000-0001-8989-6875 The Radziwiłł Cousins, Prophecies and False News in Mid-Seventeenth-Century Europe Annotation: The article looks at how false prophecies and misinformation helped to enhance the image of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania as a Protestant state in contradistinction to the Kingdom of Poland, the identity of which was clearly Catholic. The 1650s was the time when the influence of the prophetic imposter Mikuláš Drabík and his visions became particularly pronounced. Moreover, fake news about the destruction of all Polish and Lithuanian Protestant churches found a targeted audience and seemed to have worked as a propagandistic device. This discourse regarding the reasons for the downfall of the Protestant churches in Poland- Lithuania fostered among western Europeans an interest in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and gave Janusz and Bogusław Radziwiłł an international reputation of saviours of the true faith, while at home they were vilified as traitors. Keywords: Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Radziwills, Protestantism, Catholicism, prophecy, 17th century. Братья Радзивиллы, пророчества и фальшивые новости в Европе в середине XVII в. Аннотация: В статье рассматривается, как пророчества и дезинформация помогли укрепить имидж Великого Княжества Литовского как протестантского государства на международной арене в отличие от Королевства Польского, конфессиональная идентичность которого была несомненно католической. 1650-е годы – период, когда «пророчества» Микулаша Драбика стали особенно популярны. Более того, фальшивые новости об уничтожении всех польских и литовских протестантских церквей нашли свою целевую аудиторию и, казалось, работали как удачная пропагандистская уловка.

    The Order of Nature: Early Modern Views on Classification and Generation, and Their Theological, Ideological and Empirical Background ∵ chapter 2 The Species and Beyond: Classification and the Place of Hybrids in Early Modern Zoology Karl A.E. Enenkel Introduction In the history of science it is always a bit seductive to follow a teleological approach—to assess the achievements of the past with respect to the present status quo of scientific knowledge.1 If one does so, lines of linear and progres- sive development inevitably appear. This has also happened with the history of early modern zoology. In the 16th and 17th centuries zoology brought forth monumental works, including those by Conrad Gessner (1551–1560),2 Edward Wotton (1552),3 Ulisse Aldrovandi (1599 ff.),4 Wolfgang Franzius (Frantze; 1 Cf. my first draft on the topic in Dutch, for a popular audience, “Mengwezens.

From A “strong Town Of War” To The “very Heart Of The Country”: The English Border Town Of Berwick-Upon-Tweed, 1558-1625 Abstract The English border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed provides the perfect case study to analyze early modern state building in the frontiers. Berwick experienced two seismic shifts of identity, instituted by two successive monarchs: Elizabeth I (1558-1603) and James I (1603-1625). Both sought to expand state power in the borders, albeit in different ways. Elizabeth needed to secure her borders, and so built up Berwick’s military might with expensive new fortifications and an enlarged garrison of soldiers, headed by a governor who administered the civilian population as well. This arrangement resulted in continual clashes with Berwick’s traditional governing guild. Then, in 1603, Berwick’s world was turned upside-down when James VI, king of Scotland, ascended the English throne.
