The article by @JamesDMixson1 also examines how the traumatic news of Ottoman conquests influenced Christian audiences. Through re-analysis of compelling source material, this article illuminates the complex role crusading played in 15th c Germany. #AHY

@HREhistorian shows how the 1453 Ottoman conquest of Constantinople catalyzed new movement toward consolidation within the Holy Roman Empire. He examines shifting political pressures as well as evidence of popular pressure that underwrote such change. #AHY

I've had two scholarly book reviews published this spring -- one in @AHY_History on Markus Friedrich's book THE JESUITS and another in @ASChurchHistory on Mary Dunn's WHEN PARALYTICS WALK AND THE BLIND SEE, both @PrincetonUPress titles from which I learned a lot. Here are previews. If any of you would like to read one or the other but can't access them through a library, I'll be happy to email you a PDF version if you message me privately and tell me your email address.

She has had success in our history department, as an intern abroad, on Jeopardy, and no doubt will continue to impress going forward. The AHY and @CAS_Minnesota are excited to see what the future holds and will struggle to find suitable replacement. Viele grüße Emmey!

Read N. Ann Rider's review of "Places, Spaces, and Voids in the Holocaust." The volume, edited by Natalia Aleksiun & Hanna Kubátová, applies the archeological and microhistorical work of investigating discrete places and spaces to Holocaust Studies. #AHY24 https://t.co/lrVfM04a0V

.@natasha_wheatl's "The Life and Death of States" (@PrincetonUPress) explores how the Habsburg Empire shaped our concept of the nation-state. From Tahra Zara's new review: "Wheatley's book is timely, and her achievement is extraordinary." #AHY24 #Habsburgs https://t.co/XdgpdF5XcK

Just released: my new, Open Access article about politics in the Holy Roman Empire in the wake of the fall of Constantinople: https://t.co/MbOjgcXpj2

This is a first step in an exciting new project examining late medieval crusading and imperial reform. #medievaltwitter

What do the American Revolution and the Habsburg Monarchy have to do with each other? Read about it in @JonSingerton's book from @uvapress, reviewed by Marie Basile McDaniel for #AHY24! #Habsburgs #AmericanRevolution https://t.co/ipY93Gpq5X

Great to end a (busy!) week with another review of #DiggingPolitics by Nora Berend in @AHY_History,

"The volume clearly demonstrates how archeology has supplied material “evidence” for national myths and claims to territory."

There are several new #AHY24 articles and reviews now available on FirstView! Mojmír Stránský and @philipp_ther introduce a fascinating forum that compares Austria and today's Czech Republic as immigration countries. #migration #Austria #CzechRepublic https://t.co/gK6EJg3JTh

In 1848–49, Hungary faced a cholera epidemic, as well as an ongoing revolution and civil war. Csaba Fazekas' new article for #AHY24 explores the interplay between cholera and war and the effect these simultaneous phenomena had on contemporaries. #Hungary https://t.co/afECF8raBu

Josef Deckert was a prominent anti-Jewish agitator in late 19th-century Austria. David Lebovitch Dahl's new article for #AHY24 explores Deckert's path to antisemitism through the cult of St. Joseph and remembrance of the Turkish siege of Vienna. #Austria https://t.co/PcdYzQYSy6
