Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 47 years of existence of the German Empire the number of official flags grew into an organised and comprehensive flag-system. At the same time the new flag's symbol-ism was accepted speedily by the population. The new flag decorated festivities, flew over newly acquired protectorates. It was treasured and decorated greeting cards. In the course of time the colours became so deeply engrained in the conscience of the population, that a change of colours during the Weimar Republic received only little acceptance.

Book excerpt: For the past 140 years, Germany has been the central power in continental europe. Twenty-five years ago a new German state came into being. How much do we really understand this new Germany, and how do its people understand themselves? Neil MacGregor argues that, uniquely for any European country, no coherent, overarching narrative of Germany's history can be constructed, for in Germany both geography and history have always been unstable. Its frontiers have constantly shifted. Königsberg, home to the greatest German philosopher, Immanuel Kant, is now Kaliningrad, Russia; Strasbourg, in whose cathedral Wolfgang von Geothe, Germany's greatest writer, discovered the distinctiveness of his country's art and history, now lies within the borders of France. For most of the five hundred years covered by this book Germany has been composed of many separate political units, each with a distinct history. And any comfortable national story Germans might have told themselves before 1914 was destroyed by the events of the following thirty years. German history may be inherently fragmented, but it contains a large number of widely shared memories, awarenesses, and experiences; examining some of these is the purpose of this book. MacGregor chooses objects and ideas, people and places that still resonate in the new Germany—porcelain from Dresden and rubble from its ruins, Bauhaus design and the German sausage, the crown of Charlemagne and the gates of Buchenwald—to show us something of its collective imagination. There has never been a book about Germany quite like it.

Download or read book Civilian uniforms as symbolic communication written by Elisabeth Hackspiel-Mikosch and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 2006 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers of an international and interdisciplinary conference, the first such conference dedicated to the cultural history of civilian uniforms. Scholars from six different nations and from such diverse fields as history, art history, textile history, social psychology, ethnology of European and non-European countries, cultural studies, and gender studies present the results of their research. Investigating different aspects of civilian uniforms from the 18th century to the present, they reveal how this category of dress served as a complex carrier of meaning and a central medium of symbolic communication. This publication reflects a broad variety of research methods, makes available a rich store of primary sources, and raises numerous questions surrounding the role of uniforms. In addition, it provides preliminary insights into the important and remote realm of Eastern European civilian uniforms. The essays are written in either German or English.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die europäische Integration und die Entwicklung der EU in den letzten 50 Jahren stellen die Schweiz vor grosse staatspolitische Herausforderungen in allen Bereichen des Staatsrechts. Wesentliche Elemente schweizerischer Identität wie die Unabhängigkeit und Souveränität, der Föderalismus, die Neutralität, die Demokratie sowie der Schutz der Individualrechte sind direkt betroffen. Diese Herausforderungen dürfen nicht länger verdrängt werden. Die Schweiz muss sich ihnen stellen und ihre staatspolitischen Chancen und Risiken in Bezug zum europäischen Umfeld kritisch, aber offen reflektieren Das Forum für Universität und Gesellschaft bietet dazu Gelegenheit und Plattform. Was macht die schweizerische Neutralität heute aus? Ist sie ein Instrument zur Wahrung grundlegender Werte, wie Unabhängigkeit und Souveränität, ein Mittel zum Schutz vor Konflikten mit anderen Staaten? Hat sie dieselbe Bedeutung wie vor 50 Jahren? Stellt sie ein Hindernis für die sicherheitspolitische Kooperation dar? Inwieweit ist sie mit einem EU-Beitritt vereinbar? --

Download or read book Die wahrhaft k nigliche Stadt written by Daniela Kah and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English In Eine wahrhaft königliche Stadt, Daniela Kah describes how contemporary residents and visitors were able to experience and perceive the presence of the Holy Roman Empire (or its representatives, e.g., the king) in three late medieval cities -- Augsburg, Nürnberg and Lübeck. After receiving privileges from the king, these cities initiated large construction projects designed to assert their imperial status. These projects had a major impact on everyday life and made the Empire visible and graspable within the city. However, in the 13th century the cities increasingly deployed symbols and signs to represent their self-understanding as 'imperial'. ‘Being immediate to the Empire’ or ‘being privileged’ provided important political, economic, and social benefits. Therefore it became very important to the cities to represent their status in visible form. For this reason, the Empire achieved a permanent and lasting presence in free imperial cities. Deutsch In Eine wahrhaft königliche Stadt beschreibt Daniela Kah, wie das mittelalterliche Reich oder seine Repräsentanten, wie zum Beispiel der König, in den Reichsstädten Augsburg, Nürnberg und Lübeck für die zeitgenössischen Bewohner und Besucher erfahrbar war und wahrgenommen wurde. Zunächst führte die Vergabe von königlichen Privilegien zu großangelegten repräsentativen Bauprojekten in den Städten, die das Reich so im städtischen Alltag erkennbar werden ließen. Ab dem 13. Jahrhundert kam es dazu, dass die Stäte vermehrt Symbole und Zeichen im Stadtraum anbrachten, die ihr Selbstverständnis visualieren. Der Status ‚unmittelbar dem Reich zugehörig“ beziehungsweise ‚vom Reich privilegiert’ zu sein, wurde aufgrund seiner politischen, wirtschaftlichen und prestigesteigernden Bedeutung ein wichtiger Bezugspunkt, der zur dauerhaften Präsenz des Reichs in den Reichsstädten führte.
