Religion und Integration im Moskauer Russland available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Wie im gesamten mittelalterlichen und frühneuzeitlichen Europa fiel der Religion auch im Moskauer Reich eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Legitimation von Herrschaft und Integration der Gesellschaft zu. Die Vereinheitlichung der Lebensformen auf der Grundlage orthodoxer Kirchlichkeit war ein Bindeglied für die meisten Gebiete des Reiches. Doch konnte religiöser Dissens die Integration auch fallweise in Frage stellen? Wie weit ging die Kommunikation über die religiösen Grenzen hinweg? Waren doch im Moskauer Reich neben der Orthodoxie auch andere christliche Konfessionen, Islam und Naturreligionen präsent? In welchem Verhältnis standen die protonationalen Integrationspraktiken der russischen Orthodoxie zu den Anliegen imperialer Herrschaft? Lässt sich beim Vergleich mit Westeuropa von 'Gleichzeitigkeit des Ungleichzeitigen' mit Bezug auf Phänomene der religiösen Praxis sprechen? Können wir das Konfessionalisierungsparadigma auf die Geschichte des Moskauer Reiches übertragen? Autorinnen und Autoren aus Russland, Deutschland, den USA, Frankreich und Finnland geben hierzu Antworten. Der von Ludwig Steindorff herausgegebene Sammelband ist aus der X. Internationalen Konferenz zur altrussischen Geschichte her vorgegangen, die 2008 in Kiel stattfand.

A pivotal period in Russian history, the Time of Troubles in the early seventeenth century has taken on new resonance in the country's post-Soviet search for new national narratives. The historical role of the Orthodox Church has emerged as a key theme in contemporary remembrances of this time—but what precisely was that role? The first comprehensive study of the Church during the Troubles, Orthodox Russia in Crisis reconstructs this tumultuous time, offering new interpretations of familiar episodes while delving deep into the archives to uncover a much fuller picture of the era. Analyzing these sources, Isaiah Gruber argues that the business activity of monasteries played a significant role in the origins and course of the Troubles and that frequent changes in power forced Church ideologues to innovate politically, for example inventing new justifications for power to be granted to the people and to royal women. These new ideas, Gruber contends, ultimately helped bring about a new age in Russian spiritual life and a crystallization of the national mentality.

Russian Notions of Power and State in a European Perspective, 1462-1725 available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Winner of the 2023 Marc Raeff Book Prize; A 2023 REFORC Book Award Longlist TitleThis book highlights the main features and trends of Russian “political” thought in an era when sovereignty, state, and politics, as understood in Western Christendom, were non-existent in Russia, or were only beginning to be articulated. It concentrates on enigmatic authors and sources that shaped official perception of rulership, or marked certain changes of importance of this perception. Special emphasis is given to those written and visual sources that point towards depersonalization and secularization of rulership in Russia. A comparison with Western Christendom frames the argument throughout the book, both in terms of ideas and the practical aspects of state-building, allowing the reader to ponder Russia’s differentia specifica.

Download and read online ebook The Ceremonial of Audience write by Eva Orthmann. This book was released on 2019-11-11. The Ceremonial of Audience available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Audiences are among the dominant elements of courtly life and may be referred to as a central aspect of representation of power in many societies. Audiences also served as a stage for negotiation and political decision-making. Beyond that, the ceremonial of audience acted as an integrative factor, strengthening the connections between the ruler and his subjects, the élite and his dynastic background. It thus reflects the structure, or at least the intended structure of rule, and allows us to get insight into the perception of the ruler in the respective society. This volume offers an approach to forms and structures of audiences in different epochs and regions. Choosing a transcultural and diachronic perspective, it aims at delineating similarities and differences as well as possible lines of development of the ceremonial on a broad basis of case studies. Audienzen gehören zu den prägenden Bestandteilen höfischen Lebens und können als zentraler Aspekt der Herrschaftsrepräsentation bezeichnet werden. Sie dienten aber nicht nur der Repräsentation, sondern waren auch Ort von Verhandlung und politischer Entscheidung. Hinzu trat die integrative Funktion der Audienz: Durch den Vollzug des Zeremoniells wurde auch die Verbindung des Herrschers zu seinen Untertanen, Vertrauten und zu seiner Dynastie dargestellt und gefestigt. Das Zeremoniell der Audienz spiegelt somit das (intendierte) Gefüge der Herrschaft, und lässt Rückschlüsse auf das Herrscherbild der jeweiligen Gesellschaft zu. Der Sammelband behandelt Formen und Strukturen des Audienz-Zeremoniells in transkultureller und diachroner Perspektive, in dem Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede, sowie Entwicklungslinien des Audienz-Zeremoniells auf einer breiten Basis von Fallbeispielen. Dazu versammelt er Beiträge zu unterschiedlichen Teilaspekten des Audienz-Zeremoniells in vormodernen Gesellschaften Europas, Asiens und des nördlichen Afrikas.
