Abstract

Das Mittelalter wird in der Forschung als eine von grundlegenden Wandlungs- und Integrationsprozessen gekennzeichnete Epoche betrachtet. Dabei fungierte das Papsttum seit der "papstgeschichtlichen Wende" als zentraler Motor für Integrationsprozesse. Die Abhandlung arbeitet als Fallstudie solche Prozesse an der geographischen Peripherie des heutigen Europas heraus. Analysiert werden die wechselhaften Beziehungen der Päpste zum Erzbistum Toledo, dem im Selbstverständnis der dortigen Prälaten kirchlichen Zentrum der Iberischen Halbinsel unmittelbar an der umkämpften Grenze zum muslimisch beherrschten Süden. In den Blick genommen werden ausgewählte Konflikte, die im Zeitraum von rund hundert Jahren seit der Eroberung der Stadt durch christliche Truppen 1085 unter päpstlicher Beteiligung ausgetragen wurden. Indem das Papsttum hier mehr und mehr als Legitimation spendende und Recht sprechende Instanz angerufen wurde, erlangte es immer mehr Autorität.

Abstract

The African American experience since the 19th century has included the resettlement of people from slavery to freedom, agriculture to industry, South to North, and rural to urban centers. This book is a documentary history of this process over more than 200 years in Toledo, Ohio. There are four sections: the origin of the Black community, 1787 to 1900; the formation of community life, 1900 to 1950; community development and struggle, 1950 to 2000; and survival during deindustrialization, 2000 to 2016. The volume includes articles from the Toledo Blade and local Black press, excerpts of doctoral and masters theses, and other specialist and popular writings from and about Toledo itself.

Abstract

La importancia del adorno de interiores en el siglo xviii apenas ha dejado vestigios materiales más allá de las residencias palaciegas, siendo igualmente escaso el estudio de sus fuentes. Entre estas últimas se encuentra el plan decorativo para los apartamentos de la duquesa de Alba en el Palacio de Buenavista (1792), raro testimonio escrito en forma de viaje pintoresco por el comerciante de sedas y adornista François Grognard, quien hizo un diseño ex profeso a la moda. La traducción al español de este apasionante relato se acompaña de la transcripción anotada de la correspondencia manuscrita conservada en la Bibliothèque municipale de Lyon, y tres estudios particulares sobre Grognard, el palacio de Buenavista y la actividad de los adornistas. El libro es una contribución novedosa al conocimiento de la intensa actividad artística y comercial de Madrid y de las relaciones internacionales a través de un intermediario culto y moderno. La décoration intérieure au xviiie siècle n'a guère laissé de traces matérielles et l'étude de ses sources est également rare. Parmi ces dernières, le plan décoratif des appartements de la duchesse d’Alba dans le palais de Buenavista à Madrid (1792), un témoignage rare écrit sous la forme d'un voyage pittoresque par le marchand de soies et décorateur François Grognard, qui fit un dessin à la mode ex professo. Ce récit est accompagné de la transcription annotée de sa correspondance manuscrite et de trois études sur Grognard, le palais de Buenavista et l'activité des décorateurs.

Abstract

"Arriving in the U.S. in 1883, typesetter Antoni A. Paryski founded a publishing empire that earned him the nickname "The Polish Hearst." His weekly Ameryka-Echo became a defining publication in the international Polish diaspora and its much-read letters section a public sphere for immigrants to come together as a community to discuss issues in their own language. Anna D. Jaroszynska-Kirchmann mines seven decades' worth of thoughts expressed by Ameryka-Echo readers to chronicle the ethnic press's long-overlooked role in the immigrant experience. Open and unedited debate harkened back to homegrown journalistic traditions, and The Polish Hearst opens the door on the nuances of an editorial philosophy that cultivated readers as important content creators. As Jaroszynska-Kirchmann shows, ethnic publications in the process forged immigrant social networks and pushed notions of education and self-improvement throughout Polonia. "--
