The Holy Roman Empire, Reconsidered
The Holy Roman Empire has often been anachronistically assumed to have been defunct long before it was actually dissolved at the beginning of the nineteenth century. The authors of this volume reconsider the significance of the Empire in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. Their research reveals the continual importance of the Empire as a stage (and audience) for symbolic performance and communication; as a well utilized problem-solving and conflict-resolving supra-governmental institution; and as an imagined political, religious, and cultural "world" for contemporaries. This volume by leading scholars offers a dramatic reappraisal of politics, religion, and culture and also represents a major revision of the history of the Holy Roman Empire in the early modern period.

Religious Plurality at Princely Courts
Early modern European monarchies legitimized their rule through dynasty and religion where ideally the divine right of the ruler corresponded with the official confession of the territory. It has thus been assumed that at princely courts only a single confession was present. However, the reality of the confessionalization paradigm commonly involved more than one faith. Religious Plurality at Princely Courts explores the reverberations of bi-confessional or multi-confessional intra-Christian settings at courts on dynastic, symbolic, diplomatic, artistic, and theological levels addressing a significant neglected understanding of interreligious dialogue, religious change, and confessional blending. Incorporating perspectives across European studies such as domestic and international politics, dynastic strategies, the history of ideas, women’s and gender history, and material culture, the contributions to this volume highlight the intersections of religious plurality at court.
Ehrregime
Ehrungen sind ein gesellschaftliches Problem: Seit Jahren brechen in Deutschland Debatten über Straßennamen und Ehrenbürger auf, stehen koloniale, nationalsozialistische oder militärische Traditionen in der Kritik. Der Sammelband greift diese Debatten auf, um der Geschichte von Ehrungen in deutschen und europäischen Städten im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert nachzuspüren. Im Fokus stehen Auseinandersetzungen um die Benennung von Straßen und Gebäuden, beim Errichten von Denkmälern, bei der Verleihung von Ehrenbürgerschaften oder bei der Widmung von Briefmarken.
