Apple of Discord: The Hungarian Factor in Austro-Serbian Relations, 1867-1881
ISBN: 9781557536839 / Angielski / Miękka / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When seeking the origins of World War I, the chain of events in the late nineteenth century that led to the breakdown of relations between Austria-Hungary and Serbia and facilitated the rise of an aggressive Serbian nationalism needs to be understood. This book focuses on the hitherto unexplored Hungarian influence on the Habsburg Monarchy's policy toward Serbia after the 1867 Ausgleich, and it argues that this early period was critical in shaping policy after 1871, down to the imposition on Serbia in 1881 of a system of economic and political control.The Ausgleich, the Austro-Hungarian...

The Shorter Writings of Ulrich Putsch: Diarium, Oraciones Super Missam and Manuale Simplicium Sacerdotum
ISBN: 9783034309769 / Angielski / Miękka / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A companion to the 2007 volume The Light of the Soul, which features Ulrich Putsch s massive German translation of the Lumen anime C, this book presents the texts of three shorter Latin works that are commonly attributed to Ulrich, a Swabian whose long and distinguished career in the Tyrol culminated in his appointment as Bishop of Brixen (Bressanone) in 1427. His Diarium is a lively, highly subjective and often lapidary account of his ten-year episcopate, and as such a fascinating example of late medieval autobiography. Ulrich s Oraciones super missam, meanwhile,...

Hungarian Culture and Politics in the Habsburg Monarchy also traces and evaluates the complex relationship between Austria and Hungary over this considerable span of...

Szekely Origins and Radical Faith: From Mongolia to Transylvania: The Birth of Unitarianism
ISBN: 9781494926953 / Angielski / Miękka / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most Unitarians would be surprised to learn that the first established Unitarian Churches were in Hungary, established mostly among the Szekely Hungarian population, a people with a long history of religious freedom and communitarian socio-economic relations. Indeed, that surprise comes from little knowledge of the history of Eastern Europe, at least during the first millennium of the Christian Era. Yet, the understanding of the roots and development of Unitarianism has much to do with that history, and with the Szekely people's religious flowering during the last four decades of the 16th...

If there is a fundamental truth of geopolitics, it is this: whoever controls the core of Europe controls the entire continent, and whoever controls all of Europe can dominate the world.

The Viennese Revolution of 1848
ISBN: 9780292787025 / Angielski / Miękka / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Liberalism, in the nineteenth-century sense of the term, came to Austria much later than it came to western Europe, for it was not until the 1840s that the industrial revolution reached the Hapsburg Empire, bringing in its train miserable working conditions and economic upheaval, which created bitter resentment among the working classes and a longing for a Utopia that would cure the ills of mankind. This new-found liberalism, largely self-contained and uninfluenced by liberal movements outside the empire, centered mainly in the idea of individual freedom and constitutional...
