Death, Dying, and Funerals of Central European Habsburgs in the Early Modern Period
The study offers a comparative view of the rituals associated with dying, death, and funerals of the Central European Habsburgs in the early modern period.

Further on in the text, they gradually reveal the course of the Habsburgs’ illnesses immediately prece…
Die Vermählung Eleonores von Österreich mit Guglielmo Gonzaga im Jahre 1561
The Marriage of Eleonora of Austria to Guglielmo Gonzaga in 1561 Research into the marriages of Habsburg archduchesses in the 16th century goes beyond the interpretative framework of the cultural-historical approach and is methodologically based on the anthropological concepts of „symbolic communication“. The authors of the present article take this concept as a starting point, focusing on the marriage of Archduchess Eleonore (1534-1594) and Gugl…

The Representation of Royal Majesty in Ceremonies at the Early Modern Habsburg Courts
Understanding the court ceremonial of early modern times is one of the basic prerequisites for an understanding of the meaning of the existence of the institution of the imperial court, the hierarchical arrangement of the court as an organism and the ranking of its members, with the sovereign at their head. The present study therefore maps the development of research on the courts of the Habsburg emperors in the 16th-18th centuries from the persp…

From Compromise to Rebellion
In Bohemia and Moravia, a religious dualism prevailed following the Hussite revolution and the Compactata of 1436. Although the Compactata were abolished by the pope in 1462, the treaty of Kuttenberg guaranteed a right to individual choice in religion, something the nobility viewed as a crucial privilege. But such choice became a victim of a growing re-Catholicization in the sixteenth century. Although Catholic nobles were a minority in Bohemia a…
