‎URSUPATOR TANTI NOMINIS Kaiser Und Ursupator in Der Spatantike 337-476 N. Chr.‎

‎Franz Steiner Verlag. Fine with no dust jacket. 2010. Hardcover. 3515096361 . Historia - Einzelschriften 210; 458 pages; English summary: The Roman Empire knew no institutionalized process that governed the transfer of power at the head of the empire. A change of government thus often led to crisis situations. Joachim Szidat examines elevations and usurpations of emperors in late antiquity after 337 through to the end of the western Empire in 476. Moreover he illuminates the time of the tetrarchy and the early Byzantine era up through the middle of the 6th Century. Starting from the analysis of individual cases of exemplary transfers of power the author works out the general processes in the seizure of power and their political and social circumstances and conditions. As crucial for the transfer and assurance of rule appears to be the role of the new political leadership particularly emphasizing the great importance of civilian dignitaries that developed during the rule of Constantine. The usurpation therefore constituted a political rather than military problem: the new claimant to power had to be recognized. German text. German description: Die romische Kaiserzeit kannte kein institutionalisiertes Verfahren das die Ubergabe der Macht an der Spitze des Reiches regelte. Ein Wechsel der Herrschaft fuhrte daher haufig zu Krisensituationen. Joachim Szidat untersucht Kaisererhebungen und Usurpationen in der Spatantike nach 337 bis zum Ende des Kaisertums im Westen 476. Ausserdem beleuchtet er die Zeit der Tetrarchie und die fruhbyzantische Epoche bis in die Mitte des 6. Jahrhunderts. Ausgehend von der Analyse exemplarischer Einzelfalle arbeitet der Autor die generellen Ablaufe bei der Machtubernahme sowie ihre politischen und gesellschaftlichen Voraussetzungen und Bedingungen heraus. Als entscheidend fur die Weitergabe und Sicherung der Herrschaft erscheint dabei die Rolle der sich seit Konstantin bildenden neuen Fuhrungsschicht mit der grossen Bedeutung der zivilen Wurdentrager. Die Usurpation stellte daher eher ein politisches als ein militarisches Problem dar: Der Pratendent musste Anerkennung finden. . Franz Steiner Verlag hardcover‎

‎Einband ganz leicht berieben, sonst ein sehr gutes Exemplar. - This book aims to provide empirical evidence regarding the consequences of changes in European societies, focussing on migration and related phenomena of discrimination and xenophobia. The comparative analyses cover all countries of the European Social Survey in the period 2002?2014. They reveal that native members of so-called vulnerable groups, such as the unemployed, retired, permanently sick or disabled and the elderly, were more likely to experience threats and to exhibit anti-immigration attitudes. The contributors further examine social openness defined in terms of marital homogamy, social trust in the context of legitimization and social conditions of sleeplessness. A final methodological section presents the results of a mixed mode experiment involving the face-to-face mode. - Contents: Jaak Billiet, Bart Meuleman, Eldad Davidov: The relation between ethnic threat and economic insecurity in times of economic crisis: analysing data from the European Social Survey -- Peter Schmidt, Lucyna Darowska, Daniel Georg Gloris: What drives threat, attitudes towards migrants and identification with populist parties?

‎Düsseldorf : Alba-Buchverlag, 1974. 192 S. : zahlr. Ill., graph. Darst., Kt.; 23 cm; fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband m. Oumschl.‎

‎Gutes Ex.; Umschl. leicht berieben, mit kl. Preisschild. - Der Orient-Express war ursprünglich ein nur aus Schlaf- und Speisewagen zusammengesetzter Luxuszug der Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits (CIWL), der erstmals am 5. Juni 1883 von Paris in Richtung Konstantinopel (seit 1930 Istanbul) verkehrte. Da der Zielort noch nicht durchgehend auf der Schiene erreichbar war, mussten zunächst noch Fähr- und Schiffsverbindungen benutzt werden. Ab 1890 bestand eine durchgehende Verbindung über Süddeutschland, Wien, Budapest und Sofia nach Konstantinopel. Der oft als König der Züge und Zug der Könige[1] bezeichnete Zug war Kernelement eines ganzen Systems von Luxuszügen, die vor allem der Verbindung von Paris und den Kanalhäfen mit verschiedenen Zielen am Mittelmeer, in Mittel- und Südosteuropa dienten. Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg verkehrte der Orient-Express nach Bukarest, die Verbindung zwischen Paris und Istanbul übernahm der Simplon-Orient-Express über Mailand, Venedig und Belgrad, der oft ebenfalls als Orient-Express bezeichnet wurde. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde die Zuggattung Luxuszug 1950 abgeschafft und die Züge in normale Schnellzüge umgewandelt, die die Bezeichnung Orient im Namen behielten. ?

‎At the Table. Metaphorical and Material Cultures of Food in Medieval and Early Modern Europe,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2007 Hardback, XX+228 p., 1 b/w ill., 150 x 230 mm. ISBN 9782503523989.‎

‎This volume surveys recent studies of the metaphorical and material facets of food in medieval and early modern Europe. Ranging from literary, historical, and political analyses to archaeological and botanical ones, this collection explores food as a nexus of pre-modern European culture. Food and feasting are understood not simply as the consumption of material goods but also as the figurative and symbolic representations of culture, which Mauss has termed a 'total social fact'. To understand the myriad ways in which discourses about food and feasting are mobilized during this period is to better understand the fundamental role food and feasting played in the development of Europeans' habitual patterns of behaviour and of thought.
