Ernst Engelberg (1909-2010): Historian And Anti-Nazi Activist, Mario Kessler
Swiss American Historical Society Review
The life of Ernst Engelberg, historian and anti-Nazi activist, spanned over a century. Born in Imperial Germany, he witnessed World War I, became a political activist during the Weimar Republic, was a refugee during Nazism, and became a leading historian in Communist East Germany, He survived the collapsed of the DDR and he lived for two more decades in the Federal Republic of Germany. Engelberg's itinerary is, therefore, not typical for a professor of history in twentieth-century Germany.

Ufnau An Island In Switzerland's Lake Zurich A Hamlet In The American State Of Texas, Martha Kumin-Jurt
Swiss American Historical Society Review
Ufnau Island is a wonderfully quiet place that has kept its uniqueness and unspoilt nature, withstanding the turmoils of time. In 965 AD, Emperor Otto the Great gave the island and other estates bordering Lake Zurich to the Benedictine Abbey of Einsiedeln. His wife, Empress Adelheid, was the grandchild of Reginlinde, the founder of the Ufnau church. We can assume that the Empress prompted her husband to make this donation.

Research Collection College of Integrative Studies
This extensive collection of 13 essays centres on relationships of time and space, place and actor in early-modern and modern urban society and culture. Markedly inter-disciplinary, this volume makes a timely contribution to urban historiography. Indeed, City Limits is ample proof of just how much urban history has developed over recent years, from a rather niche genre to cutting-edge mainstream history. More than this, the collection’s themes and methodology are of value not only to urban historians, but scholars of society, gender, politics and culture more broadly. As a result, the collection offers a far-reaching and comprehensive contribution to the …

By early 1915, the Habsburg Monarchy faced a self-inflicted strategic crisis of the first magnitude. Under thecommand of the ever fallible Conrad von Hötzendorf, successive Austrian offensives against the Serbs andthe Russians in 1914 had been outright failures. In both cases, Conrad had attempted to shift between frontswith insufficient resources and succeeded only in grinding the life out of the fragile, undermanned, andunderequipped Habsburg Army. As a result, the Russians were able to lay siege to the critical Austrian fortificationof Przemyśl, which guarded the great Hungarian Plain against Russian invasion. In reaction, Conradgathered forces to relieve Przemyśl with an offensive …

Am 23. März 1944 explodiert in der Via Rasella im Herzen Roms eine Bombe und tötet 33 Mann des Polizeiregiments "Bozen". Die deutsche Antwort auf diesen verheerenden Partisanenanschlag sollte als die "grosste Repressalerschießung in Westeuropa während des Zweiten Weltkriegs" in die Geschichte eingehen und zu einem wichtigen Symbol deutscher Schreckensherrschaft in Italien werden: Die Erschießung von 335 italienischen Geiseln in den Höhlen der Fosse Ardeatine bei Rom. Die Fosse Ardeatine wurden in Italien nach 1945 zu einem wichtigen Erinnerungsort.
Welche Rolle haben dieses Kriegsverbrechen und der Umgang damit im deutsch-italienischen Verhältnis seit 1945 gespielt? Welche Rolle die juristische Aufarbeitung? Vor …

Revolutionary theories are most useful when they attempt to define and interpret the causes and mechanisms of revolutions. However, when they attempt to forecast the outcomes and the impact of revolutions on their indigenous societies, they are largely unsuccessful. This article deals with the impact of the Young Turk revolution on three non-dominant ethnic groups in the Ottoman Empire: Armenians, Arabs, and Jews. It will argue that the revolution resulted in the creation of a multiplicity of public spheres among the ethnic groupS.1 This multiplicity of public spheres became the main medium through which these ethnic groups internalized the Young …

The Self In Multiple: The Lithographic Portraits Of L'Artiste (1832-34), Sean Delouche

Portraits, especially those outside the medium of oil-on-canvas, have been a neglected and often disparaged subject in nineteenth-century French art history, despite their overwhelming prevalence during the time period. This paper contributes to our understanding of the modern manifestation of the portrait by examining a suite of lithographic portraits of cultural celebrities that appeared in the newly established art journal L’Artiste during the July Monarchy (1830-1848), the constitutional regime long associated with both the social and political rise of the bourgeoisie as well as the development of an extensive commercial and celebrity culture. Executed in the sketchy and lively medium …

The appearance of this little book has come about primarily because of the Danish-born Americans’ Festival in the Rebild Hills this year. We have for some time wished to assemble representatives from all Danish American camps and communities in these United States and to meet at one spot within our country of origin. This year, for the first time, we will have managed to do that, as it has become more and more clear how little those of us from the old country know about each other, because we live so far apart, and we are thus unable to understand …
