The Singing of the Strasbourg Protestants 1523-1541

The Singing of the Strasbourg Protestants 1523-1541

Music was in some form or another a pastime enjoyed by all in sixteenth-century society and a fundamental part of their lives. It was both through the use of music and partly as a result of its existence that many religious changes occurred during the Reformation. This book explores the part played by music especially group singing in the unfolding of the Protestant reforms in Strasbourg. It considers both ecclesiastical and ’popular’ songs in the city examining how both genres fitted into people’s lives during this time of strife and how the provision and dissemination of music as a whole affected and in turn was affected by the new ecclesiastical arrangement. Whilst it would be naive to assume that the congregations were transformed from impious to pious overnight as the result of the introduction of German hymns it is clear that there were real and concerted efforts on the part of reformers to get people to embrace the new faith and writing hymns for them to sing was central to the process. Drawing upon a range of sources - including liturgical orders and hymnals polemical songs chronicles of the Reformation and text manuscripts - the book explores the methods by which new songs were introduced in Strasbourg churches and suggests how congregations might have learnt them. In so doing it provides an account of the process by which reformers found music a place in the new Church and used it to promote their wider reform agenda. | The Singing of the Strasbourg Protestants 1523-1541

The Evolving Protection of Prisoners’ Rights in Europe explores the development of the framing of penal and prison policies by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) clarifying the European expectations of national authorities and describing the various models existing in Europe with a view to analysing their mechanisms and highlighting those that seem the most suitable. A new frame of penal and prison policies in Europe has been progressively established by the ECHR and the Council of Europe (CoE) to protect the rights of detainees in Europe. European countries have reacted very diversely to these policies. This book has several key benefits for readers: • A global and detailed overview of the ECHR jurisprudence on penal and prison policies through an analysis of its development over time. • An analysis of the interactions between the Strasbourg Court and the CoE bodies (Committee of Ministers Committee for the Prevention of Torture …) and their reinforced framing of domestic penal and prison policies. • A detailed examination of the impacts of the European case law on penal and prison policies within ten nation states in Europe (including Romania which is currently very underresearched). • A robust engagement with the diverse national reactions to this European case law as a policy strategy. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students of Law Criminal Justice Criminology and Sociology. It will also appeal to civil servants (judges lawyers etc. ) professionals and policymakers working for the CoE the European Union and the United Nations; Ministries of Justice; prison departments; and human rights institutions as well as activists working for INGOs and NGOs.

Gated Communities? Regulating Migration in Early Modern Cities

Gated Communities? Regulating Migration in Early Modern Cities

Contrary to earlier views of preindustrial Europe as an essentially sedentary society research over the past decades has amply demonstrated that migration was a pervasive characteristic of early modern Europe. In this volume the theme of urban migration is explored through a series of historical contexts journeying from sixteenth-century Antwerp Ulm Lille and Valenciennes through seventeenth-century Berlin Milan and Rome to eighteenth-century Strasbourg Trieste Paris and London. Each chapter demonstrates how the presence of diverse and often temporary groups of migrants was a core feature of everyday urban life which left important marks on the demographic economic social political and cultural characteristics of individual cities. The collection focuses on the interventions by urban authorities and institutions in a wide-ranging set of domains as they sought to stimulate channel and control the newcomers' movements and activities within the cities and across the cities' borders. While striving for a broad geographical and chronological coverage in a comparative perspective the volume aims to enhance our insight into the different factors that shaped urban migration policies in different European settings west of the Elbe. By laying bare the complex interactions of actors interests conflicts and negotiations involved in the regulation of migration the case studies shed light on the interrelations between burghership guilds relief arrangements and police in the incorporation of newcomers and in shaping the shifting boundaries between wanted and unwanted migrants. By relating to a common analytical framework presented in the introductory chapter they engage in a comparative discussion that allows for the formulation of general insights and the identification of long term transformations that transcend the time and place specificities of the case studies in question. The introduction and final chapters connect insights derived from the individual case-study chapters to present wide ranging conclusions that resonate with both historical and present-day debates on migration. | Gated Communities?
