Acquisition of skills in scientific research methods (concerning scientific literature as well as primary sources); awareness of methodological approaches; training for participation in ongoing scientific discourse and in didactically suitable forms of presenting results of research, consolidation of historical knowledge about the mentioned period of time and its specific problems.

 

In 2018 the peace treaty of Passarowitz/Pozarovec, which marks the end of the religious wars against the Osmans in historiography, is 300 years old. 

The dictum "Bella gerant alii, tu felix Austira nube" is misleading. Not only wars of succession but also religious wars, against the Osmans, against revolutionary and Napoleonic France, against Italy and Prussia up to the First World War shaped Austrian history. Nevertheless, the topic of this Proseminar won´t be wars but peace treaties, the prevenient negotiations and their effects. 

brief introduction to the subject; reading and analyzing scientific essays and historical sources together in class; working in groups.

The students are expected to be present regularly and to take an active part in the course; they have to do smaller tasks alone or in groups; oral presentations of their own topic, including an handout; moderation of discussion; paper (15 pp.).

basic literature will be announced in the course; research of further specific literature is part of the students´ tasks.

Due to substantial differences in the allocation of ECTS-Credits in various curricula (teacher training programs/specialized degree programs), the requirements for this course vary. Information will be provided by the instructor at the beginning of the course.
