Abstract

The Belgian historian Klaas Van Gelder is the author of an important monograph on the advent of Austrian Habsburg rule in the Southern Netherlands following the War of Spanish Succession. He is currently active at the Free University and at the State Archives in Brussels but was previously connected to Vienna through a series of research positions. In this edited volume, Van Gelder presents the results of several meetings on eighteenth-century inaugurations and coronations. More than Mere Spectacle brings together ten substantial and carefully researched chapters on Habsburg inaugurations and coronations from the seventeenth to the later nineteenth century, plus an introduction and epilogue. The volume deals with Habsburg composite monarchy in its various incarnations but leaves out the senior Spanish line and its possessions. In the introduction, Van Gelder underlines the sociopolitical relevance of acts of homage and coronations: in one way or another, these moments helped to define as well as show the balance between local political institutions and the overarching figure of the Habsburg ruler. The enactment of rulership took distinct shapes in the various component parts of Habsburg monarchy, from the Southern Netherlands to Galicia, and from the supreme elective imperial dignity of the Holy Roman Empire, the Hungarian and Bohemian crowns to the Austrian archduchies. Van Gelder rightly notes that the literature examining these occasions has tended to focus on the period from the later Middle Ages to the end of the seventeenth century. Moreover, it frequently asserts that inaugurations lost some of their political relevance in this period. This volume extends the debate into the nineteenth century; it highlights changes in the format and frequency of inaugurations but successfully defends the view that they retained great relevance. The contributions by Petr Mat ’ a and William Godsey form the backbone of the volume. These two authors examine the “ plethora ” of Habsburg investitures, respectively, from the 1520s to the 1790s and from the 1790s to 1848. Together, they provide the outlines of the phenomenon.

克拉斯·范·盖尔德主编:《不仅仅是奇观:十八世纪和十九世纪哈布斯堡王朝的加冕典礼和就职典礼》纽约:Berghahn,2021。第338页。
比利时历史学家克拉斯·范·盖尔德(Klaas Van Gelder)撰写了一本重要的专著,探讨了西班牙王位继承战争后奥地利哈布斯堡王朝在荷兰南部的统治。他目前活跃于布鲁塞尔的自由大学和国家档案馆,但之前通过一系列研究职位与维也纳有联系。在这本编辑过的书中,Van Gelder介绍了关于18世纪就职典礼和加冕典礼的几次会议的结果。《不止奇观》汇集了十章内容丰富且经过仔细研究的章节,内容涉及17世纪至19世纪后期哈布斯堡王朝的就职典礼和加冕典礼,外加引言和结语。该卷涉及哈布斯堡复合君主制在其各种化身,但遗漏了高级西班牙线和它的财产。在引言中,Van Gelder强调了致敬和加冕行为的社会政治相关性:在某种程度上,这些时刻帮助定义并展示了当地政治机构和哈布斯堡统治者的总体形象之间的平衡。在哈布斯堡王朝的各个组成部分,从南尼德兰到加利西亚,从神圣罗马帝国的最高选举帝国尊严,匈牙利和波希米亚的皇冠到奥地利大公国,统治的制定有着不同的形式。Van Gelder正确地指出,研究这些事件的文献往往集中在从中世纪晚期到17世纪末的时期。此外,它经常断言就职典礼在这一时期失去了一些政治相关性。这本书将辩论延伸到19世纪;它强调了就职典礼形式和频率的变化,但成功地捍卫了就职典礼仍然具有重要意义的观点。peter Mat ' a和William Godsey的贡献构成了本书的主干。这两位作者分别从1520年代到1790年代和从1790年代到1848年考察了哈布斯堡王朝“过多”的任命。它们共同勾勒出了这一现象的轮廓。马特?
