• Sommario/riassunto: This volume is the second part of a trilogy on a detailed history of Vienna. It covers the period from the First Turkish Siege (1529) to the death of the Emperor Joseph II (1790). During these centuries the Habsburg dynasty and the court had been shaping predominantly the development of the city and the cultural townscape. In a detailed description fifteen authors give an overall view of the history of the constitution and administration, of the environmental, social, economic, and cultural development. Attention has been mainly focused on an analysis of the structural changes of the city's economy in the early modern period and the structure of the society, especially stressing its consequences in daily life. This historical description is based in many respects on the latest results of recent research. This ; volume provides the first concise history of Vienna between the 16th and 18th centuries in the last fifty years. It imparts the latest state of research to a wide public, supported by many illustrations and a large bibliography.; Der zweite Band einer auf drei Bände konzipierten Stadtgeschichte beschäftigt sich mit dem Zeitraum von der Ersten Türkenbelagerung (1529) bis zum Tod Josephs II. (1790). Es ist dies eine Periode, in welcher die Dynastie und der Hof die Entwicklung der Stadt und ihr kulturelles Erscheinungsbild wesentlich bestimmten. In einer breit angelegten, quellenorientierten Darstellung vermitteln 15 Autorinnen und Autoren neben einem Überblick über die historischen Ereignisse sowie die Verfassungs-, Verwaltungs- und Kirchengeschichte ein plastisches Bild der demographischen, gesellschaftlichen, wirtschaftlichen und kulturellen Entwicklung; dabei wird auch umweltrelevanten Aspekten die erforderliche Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet. Besondere Schwerpunkte, zu denen vielfach neue Forschungsergebnisse vorgelegt werden können, bilden die Analyse des strukturellen Wandels der frühneuzeitlichen Stadtökonomie und der Sozialstruktur, wobei insbesondere das Alltagsleben aller Schichten von Stadtbewohnern Berücksichtigung findet. Die Geschichte Wiens vom 16. bis zum 18. Jahrhundert erfährt in diesem Band erstmals seit über fünf Jahrzehnten wieder eine kompendiöse Aufarbeitung, die den letzten Stand historischer Forschung in einer auch breiteren Kreisen zugänglichen Darstellung bietet. Dies wird durch eine reiche Bebilderung und eine umfangreiche Bibliographie unterstützt.

• Sommario/riassunto: This book - the first collection of studies on Byzantine dreams to be published - aims to demonstrate the importance of closely examining dreams in Byzantium in their wider historical and cultural, as well as narrative, context. The remarkable number of dream narratives in Byzantine hagiography, historiography, rhetoric, epistolography, and romance attests to the cardinal function of dreams as vehicles of meaning in politics, religion and literature. The essays provide a broad variety of perspectives, exploring gender, eroticism, Greco-Roman and Islamic influences, psychoanalysis and anthropol
