Download or read book The Holy Roman Empire Reconsidered written by Jason Philip Coy and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Holy Roman Empire has often been anachronistically assumed to have been defunct long before it was actually dissolved at the beginning of the nineteenth century. The authors of this volume reconsider the significance of the Empire in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. Their research reveals the continual importance of the Empire as a stage (and audience) for symbolic performance and communication; as a well utilized problem-solving and conflict-resolving supra-governmental institution; and as an imagined political, religious, and cultural "world" for contemporaries. This volume by leading scholars offers a dramatic reappraisal of politics, religion, and culture and also represents a major revision of the history of the Holy Roman Empire in the early modern period.
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Albania written by Robert Elsie and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010-03-19 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Albania is not well known by outsiders; it was deliberately closed to the outside world during the communist era. Now it has thankfully become free again, its borders are open and it can be visited, and it is increasingly integrating with the rest of Europe and beyond. Unfortunately, Albania has had its share of problems in the post-communist era; it's a land of destitution and despair, thanks in part to the Albanian mafia, which has turned the country into one of blood-feuds, kalashnikovs, and eternal crises. Yet, Albania is, in essence, a European nation like any other and will soon, it is to be hoped, advance and take its proper place in Europe and the world. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of Albania relates the history of this little-known country through a detailed chronology, an introduction, a bibliography, appendixes, and over 700 cross-referenced dictionary entries on significant persons, places, and events; institutions and organizations; and political, economic, social, cultural, and religious facets.

Download or read book Frederick the Second written by Ernst Kantorowicz and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FREDERICK THE SECOND is the story of the remarkable man whose power and sphere of influence straddled the worlds of Christendom and of Islam. The last of the Hohenstaufens, HolyRoman Emperor and King of Sicily and Jerusalem, Frederick II was an energetic and versatile ruler, a man of great ambition in whose lifetime the conflict between Emperor and Pope reached a newintensity. Excommunicated three times by the Church, he was an absolute monarch whose power, defended in almost continuous struggle, extended over much of Germany and Italy as well as the Holy Land. Frederick was a complex man of cultured tastes and licentious manners who had unusually wide intellectual interests. At his Sicilian court scholars of all religions were welcomed--Christian, Jewish, Mohammedan. He founded the University of Naples in 1224 and was a patron of the arts and sciences. The life of this dynamic man is fully explored in Ernst Kantorowicz's notable biography, filled with dramatic incident and absorbing detail, and written with style and scholarship.

Download or read book Myth in History History in Myth written by Society for Netherlandic History (U.S.). International Conference and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975, a group of Dutch and British scholars published a conference volume of collected essays entitled "Some Political Mythologies." That conference sought to examine the political myth as an object of historical study, particularly in the context of the tumultuous and exceptional history of the Low Countries. Thirty years later, a more diverse group of scholars gathered to re-examine the history of Dutch myth-making in light of developments in theoretical and methodological approaches to understanding the role of myths in national identity, moral geography, and community formation. The results of their efforts appear in this volume, "Myth in History: History in Myth." The essays cover developments in history, anthropology, cartography, philosophy, art history, and literature as they pertain to how the Dutch historically perceived these myths and how the myths have been treated by previous generations of historians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il Volume, introdotto dall’analisi dell’impatto della multireligiosità interculturale sulle professioni legali, traccia, in tale prospettiva, un “percorso guidato” che vede integrati gli aspetti teorici e la prassi giurisprudenziale inerenti le forme organizzative religiose, il patrimonio e le dinamiche finanziarie degli enti, la simbologia e l’osservanza dei precetti confessionali, la protezione dei dati sensibili, i trattamenti sanitari, il testamento biologico, nonché la tutela “positiva” della libertà religiosa. Oltre agli aspetti istituzionali, nelle singole parti sono poste all’attenzione del lettore molteplici questioni di rilevante interesse, tra le quali, ad esempio, il rapporto tra enti ecclesiastici e società commerciali, la condivisione degli edifici di culto tra diverse confessioni, i precetti patrimoniali della fede islamica, il rapporto tra norme di matrice religiosa e attività sportive, la c.d. “eco-fede”, la satira e il fenomeno della “hate speech”, le app religiose e la risarcibilità del danno derivante da condotte discriminatorie, solo per segnalare alcuni dei punti oggetto del lavoro.Al suo interno, inoltre, è stato analizzato il rapporto tra famiglia, matrimonio e fattore religioso, con riferimento alla trascrizione dei matrimoni religiosi, alla delibazione delle sentenze ecclesiastiche di nullità matrimoniale alla luce della riforma introdotta da Papa Francesco, ai matrimoni religiosi civilmente riconosciuti celebrati dagli stranieri sia in Italia che all’estero, nonché all’esercizio della libertà religiosa nella famiglia, con particolare riguardo alla tutela dei minori. Anche in questo caso, sono state evidenziate una serie di questioni significative, tra le quali, ad esempio, la trascrizione post mortem del matrimonio canonico, l’introduzione del processo matrimoniale più breve e l’efficacia civile delle sentenze pronunciate dai Vescovi diocesani, il rapporto tra poligamia e successione ereditaria, il divorzio islamico e la kafalah.Il Volume, inoltre, affronta e risolve problemi pratici che testimoniano la presenza di numerose questioni poste a cavallo tra diritto, religioni e culture, che la società propone alla soluzione dei giuristi.ANTONIO FUCCILLO, Professore ordinario di Diritto ecclesiastico e interculturale presso il Dipartimento di Giurisprudenza dell’Università della Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”, notaio nel distretto di Latina.
