Conclusions.This book explores an alternate history of the power and agency of 30 Hungarian queens over 400 years by a rigorous examination of the material culture connected with their lives. By researching the objects, images, and spaces, it demonstrates how these women expressed and displayed their power. Queens used material culture and space not only to demonstrate their own power to a wide, international audience, but also to consolidate their own position when it was weakened by external circumstances. Both the public and private image of the queen factors significantly in understanding in her own role at the strongly centralized Hungarian court, and, moreover, how her position and person strengthened and complemented that of the king. .Queenship and Power,2730-9398EuropeHistory476-1492Europe, CentralHistorySexHistory of Medieval EuropeHistory of Germany and Central EuropeGender StudiesEuropeHistory476-1492.Europe, CentralHistory.Sex.History of Medieval Europe.History of Germany and Central Europe.Gender Studies.943.902943.902Mielke Christopher853392MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910483695703321The Archaeology and Material Culture of Queenship in Medieval Hungary, 1000-13954328876UNINA06185nam 22008895 450 991050301010332120250628110034.09783030797393303079739210.1007/978-3-030-79739-3(CKB)5360000000049897EBL6743521(OCoLC)1313880358(AU-PeEL)EBL6743521(MiAaPQ)EBC6743521(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/72249(DE-He213)978-3-030-79739-3(ODN)ODN0010187422(oapen)doab72249(Au-PeEL)EBL6743521(OCoLC)1314617641(EXLCZ)99536000000004989720211004d2022 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAddressing the Climate Crisis Local action in theory and practice /edited by Candice Howarth, Matthew Lane, Amanda Slevin1st ed. 2022.2021Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2022.1 online resource (155 p.)Social Sciences SeriesDescription based upon print version of record.9783030797386 3030797384 Section 1: Community and place in local climate praxis -- 1.Local climate praxis in practice: Community climate action in Belfast -- 2.Putting the 'Place' in place-based climate action: Insights from climate adaptation initiatives across Scotland -- 3.A commoner's climate movement -- 4.The Envirolution Revolution: Raising awareness of climate change creatively through free and accessible community engagement festivals -- Section 2: The spaces of local climate action -- 5.How have climate emergency declarations helped local government action to decarbonise? -- 6.Developing a carbon baseline to support multi-stakeholder, multi-level climate governance at county level -- 7.Power in practice: reflecting on the first year of the Edinburgh Climate Commission -- 8.How can 'ordinary' cities become climate pioneers? -- Section 3: The agents of local climate action -- 9.Effective communication on local adaptation: considerations for providers of climate change advice and support.-10.Diversifying the private sector in local climate commissions -- 11.Citizens' assemblies and juries on climate change: Lessons from their use in practice -- 12.Rebecca WellsUniversities as living labs for climate praxis.This open access book brings together a collection of cutting-edge insights into how action can and is already being taken against climate change at multiple levels of our societies, amidst growing calls for transformative and inclusive climate action. In an era of increasing recognition regarding climate and ecological breakdown, this book offers hope, inspiration and analyses for multi-level climate action, spanning varied communities, places, spaces, agents and disciplines, demonstrating how the energy and dynamism of local scales are a powerful resource in turning the tide. Interconnected yet conceptually distinct, the book's three sections span multiple levels of analysis, interrogating diverse perspectives and practices inherent to the vivid tapestry of climate action emerging locally, nationally and internationally. Delivered in collaboration with the UK's 'Place-Based Climate Action Network', chapters are drawn from a wide range of authors with varying backgrounds spread acrossacademia, policy and practice.

Matthew Lane is Researcher in Sustainable Urban Governance at the University of Edinburgh. His research focuses on how city and regional governments are coping with an increased responsibility to act on crises of sustainability despite having limited legal, institutional, political and economic capacity to do so. He has undertaken fieldwork in the UK, Zambia, China and the United States of America.
