Elaustracismoen Valencia : Un Nu.Evo Intentode Sublevacionen '1710
EL AUSTRACISMO EN VALENCIA: UN NU.EVO INTENTO DE SUBLEVACION EN '1710 CARMEN PEREZ APARICIO INTRODUCCION Vista con cierta perspectiva, la victoria borbónica obtenida en Aimansa en el mes de abril de 1707, aseguró definitivamente a Felipe V el dominio del reino de Valencia. Sin embargo, una vez salvado el obstiiculo militar, el ej'ér- cito filipino tuvo que enfrentarse a diversos núcleos de resistencia -no por escasos menos enconados- que retrasaron la total reconquista del reino varios años, durante los cuales la causa borbónica atravesó por varias vicisitudes y tuvo momentos de indudable peligro, como lo demuestra el hecho de que el austracismo intentara por segunda vez, ahon en 17 10, una nueva sublevación Las circunstancias que hicieron factible este nuevo intento y las razones de su fracaso son las que intentaremos analizar seguidamente. El hecho de que la proyectada sublevación no se tradujese en un nuevo levantamiento en favor del Archiduque ha dado lugar a que los historiadores que han tratado sobre la Guerra de Sucesión pasaran por alto o aludieran tangencialmente a la cuestión al tiempo que recalcaban la importancia y trascendencia de la victoria que el ejército borbónico obtuvo en los campos de ,41rnansa1. Si embargo, como ya hemos dicho, ello no significó la definitiva 1 Especialmente significativa es al respecto la obm de MIÑANA, J.M. De beno nrstico valenciano.

Constructing Contemporary Nationhood in the Museums and Heritage Centres of Catalonia Colin Breen*, Wes Forsythe**, John Raven***
170 Constructing Contemporary Nationhood in the Museums and Heritage Centres of Catalonia Colin Breen*, Wes Forsythe**, John Raven*** Abstract Geographically, Spain consists of a complex mosaic of cultural identities and regional aspirations for varying degrees of autonomy and independence. Following the end of violent conflict in the Basque country, Catalonia has emerged as the most vocal region pursuing independence from the central Spanish state. Within the Catalan separatist movement, cultural heritage sites and objects have been appropriated to play an intrinsic role in supporting political aims, with a variety of cultural institutions and state-sponsored monumentality playing an active part in the formation and dissemination of particular identity-based narratives. These are centred around the themes of a separate and culturally distinct Catalan nation which has been subject to extended periods of oppression by the varying manifestations of the Spanish state. This study addresses the increasing use of museums and heritage institutions to support the concept of a separate and distinctive Catalan nation over the past decade. At various levels, from the subtle to the blatant, heritage institutions are propagating a message of cultural difference and past injustice against the Catalan people, and perform a more consciously active, overt and supportive role in the independence movement. Key words: Catalonia, museums, heritage, identity, nationhood Across contemporary Europe a range of nationalist and separatist movements are again gaining momentum (Borgen 2010). From calls for independence in Scotland and the divisive politics of the Flemish and Walloon communities in Belgium, to the continually complicated political mosaic of the Balkan states, there are now a myriad of movements striving for either greater or full autonomy for their region or peoples. -
Sovereignty, Religion and Violence in the Medieval Crown of Aragon
Published on Reviews in History (https://reviews.history.ac.uk) The Mercenary Mediterranean: Sovereignty, Religion and Violence in the Medieval Crown of Aragon Review Number: 2079 Publish date: Thursday, 9 March, 2017 Author: Hussein Fancy ISBN: 9780226329642 Date of Publication: 2016 Price: £26.89 Pages: 296pp. Publisher: Uinveristy of Chicago Press Publisher url: http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/M/bo22776804.html Place of Publication: Chicago, IL Reviewer: Robin Vose Why would a hardened band of foreign jih?di warriors agree to work for a self-proclaimed leader of the Christian world – especially one militantly opposed to Islam, who kept his own Muslim citizens under close surveillance? And why would such a ruler choose to keep that particular type of professional killer in his personal employ? These are not just questions you might expect to see aired by conspiracy theorists in modern tabloid media. They also arise from Hussein Fancy’s meticulous investigation of real episodes in the history of the Crown of Aragon – an important collection of Christian (and frequently crusading) polities that ruled over eastern Spain and other parts of the Mediterranean basin in the later Middle Ages. The apparently contradictory nature of such unlikely instances of interreligious military cooperation serves as his stepping-off point for a fascinating, compelling, and at times provocative study of how political power, religious identity, and the complexities of interfaith relations actually shaped a period which has since become renowned for its bewilderingly intertwined legacies of both violence and coexistence. It is always a pleasant surprise when a serious work of historical research also makes for a stimulating read, as is the case with this book. -

Interaction and Perception in Anglo-German Armies: 1689-1815
Interaction and Perception in Anglo-German Armies: 1689-1815 Mark Wishon Ph.D. Thesis, 2011 Department of History University College London Gower Street London 1 I, Mark Wishon confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT Throughout the ‘long eighteenth century’ Britain was heavily reliant upon soldiers from states within the Holy Roman Empire to augment British forces during times of war, especially in the repeated conflicts with Bourbon, Revolutionary, and Napoleonic France. The disparity in populations between these two rival powers, and the British public’s reluctance to maintain a large standing army, made this external source of manpower of crucial importance. Whereas the majority of these forces were acting in the capacity of allies, ‘auxiliary’ forces were hired as well, and from the mid-century onwards, a small but steadily increasing number of German men would serve within British regiments or distinct formations referred to as ‘Foreign Corps’. Employing or allying with these troops would result in these Anglo- German armies operating not only on the European continent but in the American Colonies, Caribbean and within the British Isles as well. Within these multinational coalitions, soldiers would encounter and interact with one another in a variety of professional and informal venues, and many participants recorded their opinions of these foreign ‘brother-soldiers’ in journals, private correspondence, or memoirs. These commentaries are an invaluable source for understanding how individual Briton’s viewed some of their most valued and consistent allies – discussions that are just as insightful as comparisons made with their French enemies. -
The Tubal Figure in Early Modern Iberian Historiography, 16Th and 17Th Century
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Revistes Catalanes amb Accés Obert THE TUBAL FIGURE IN EARLY MODERN IBERIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY, 16TH AND 17TH CENTURY MATTHIAS GLOËL UNIVERSIDAD CATÓLICA DE TEMUCO CHILE Date of receipt: 16th of May, 2016 Final date of acceptance: 13th of September, 2016 ABSTRACT This study is dedicated to the use of the biblical figure Tubal in early modern Iberian chronicles. The focus will be centered on how it is used in different ways in the different kingdoms (Castile, Aragon, Catalonia, Valencia, Portugal and the Basque Provinces and Navarre) and what the authors are trying to achieve through this. Results show that while Castilian authors try to prove Spanish antiquity with the Tubal settlement, in other kingdom, especially in Catalonia, Portugal and Navarre there is a more regional use of the myth. Most of these authors try to prove that their own kingdom is the territory where Tubal settled, which would give a pre-eminence of antiquity to it in comparison to the other Iberian territories.

Introduction Myths have always played an outstanding part in human history and they are without any doubt much older than science. This is also valid for chronicles or historiographical works. Christian historians in particular broke up the division between myth and history, which had been established by classical historiography.1 Only pagan stories remained myths, while the Bible gained the recognition of true history.2 Early Modern chronicles from the Iberian Peninsula are no exception to this phenomenon. -
Golden Age Spain Second Edition by Henry Kamen 
Golden Age Spain Second edition By Henry Kamen  Chapter 2 Absolute Monarchy Was there an ‘absolute’ monarchy in Early Modern Spain? What were the ‘crown’, the ‘monarchy’ and the ‘state’? How did the crown enforce its authority? Modifying state power: provincial and urban authority. How did the crown pay its way? Was there opposition to and popular protest against the government? 1 Between 1450 and 1714 Spain underwent a more extensive political evolution than probably any other west European state of its time. In the late fifteenth century the Spanish realms (one of them Muslim) were a confused collection of jurisdictions with wholly separate identities; by the early eighteenth century there remained only one authority, the crown of ‘Spain’. Though the transformation appeared to be fundamental, it left untouched basic elements of society, culture and religion that continued to preserve their character without much change over subsequent centuries. Was there an ‘absolute’ monarchy in Early Modern Spain? Traditionally, historians pointed to the growth of royal authority as the most notable political fact, but later studies have looked more closely at what this really involved [9]. After the anarchy of the civil wars in Castile and Catalonia in the late fifteenth century, the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella (1474–1516) seemed to initiate the birth of a modern state. The rulers presided over the union of their crowns, the defeat of the Muslims of Granada, the expulsion of the Jews, the discovery of the New World, and the beginnings of Spanish power in southern Italy, the North African coast and the Atlantic (the Canary Islands). -
One Hundred Years of Science Policy and the Institute of Catalan Studies
CONEIXEMENT I SOCIETAT 14 ARTICLES ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF SCIENCE POLICY AND THE INSTITUTE OF CATALAN STUDIES Josep M. Camarasa* and Antoni Roca i Rosell** The Institute of Catalan Studies (Institut d’Estudis Catalans, henceforth the IEC) was founded in 1907 by Enric Prat de la Riba with the aim of promoting scientific policy. The underlying rationale was that an institute promoting high culture would reinforce Catalonia’s aspirations for political autonomy. Nonetheless, in addition to this original aim, the IEC has acquired a considerable degree of functional autonomy, indicating preferred directions for research and the dissemination of knowledge, and contributing greatly to the development of a Catalan scientific community. The autonomy of the IEC was unrestricted during the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera (1923-1930), although it received no public funding of any kind. During the Second Republic –covering the years 1931 to 1939 and including the Civil War– the IEC had premises in the Casa de Convalescència (attached to the old Hospital de la Santa Creu). During the Franco dictatorship, the IEC was taken to be defunct, although it was never, in fact, explicitly closed down, and continued to operate in semi-clandestine form. In 1963, Òmnium Cultural (a body promoting Catalan identity, culture and language), granted the IEC premises in the Palau Dalmases. The IEC thus acquired a certain public presence that enabled it to support the activities implemented by its subsidiary societies. In 1976, the IEC was publicly recognised by the governments of Catalonia and of Spain. In recent decades, in an academic context that is very different from that existing in the opening decades of the 20th century and against a very different political background, the IEC has battled to carve out a niche for itself in the Catalan research sector.
