17th-century Classical Composers
The 17th century lasted from January 1, 1601 ( MDCI), to December 31, 1700 ( MDCC). It falls into the early modern period of Europe and in that continent (whose impact on the world was increasing) was characterized by the Baroque cultural movement, the latter part of the Spanish Golden Age, the Dutch Golden Age, the French ''Grand Siècle'' dominated by Louis XIV, the Scientific Revolution, the world's first public company and megacorporation known as the Dutch East India Company, and according to some historians, the General Crisis. From the mid-17th century, European politics were increasingly dominated by the Kingdom of France of Louis XIV, where royal power was solidified domestically in the civil war of the Fronde. The semi-feudal territorial French nobility was weakened and subjugated to the power of an absolute monarchy through the reinvention of the Palace of Versailles from a hunting lodge to a gilded prison, in which a greatly expanded royal court could be more easily k ...

People From Grudziądz
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Peace Of Westphalia
The Peace of Westphalia (german: Westfälischer Friede, ) is the collective name for two peace treaties signed in October 1648 in the Westphalian cities of Osnabrück and Münster. They ended the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648) and brought peace to the Holy Roman Empire, closing a calamitous period of European history that killed approximately eight million people. Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III, the kingdoms of France and Sweden, and their respective allies among the princes of the Holy Roman Empire participated in these treaties.Clodfelter, Micheal (2017). ''Warfare and Armed Conflicts: A Statistical Encyclopedia of Casualty and Other Figures, 1492–2015.'' McFarland. p. 40. . The negotiation process was lengthy and complex. Talks took place in two cities, because each side wanted to meet on territory under its own control. A total of 109 delegations arrived to represent the belligerent states, but not all delegations were present at the same time. Two treaties were signe ...

Such, Wer Da Will, Ein Ander Ziel
"" (Search, whoever wants, for a different goal) is a Lutheran hymn in five stanzas with a text written by Georg Weissel in 1623 to a melody that Johann Stobäus had created in 1613. History The Lutheran theologian Georg Weissel was appointed minister of the Altrossgarten Church in Königsberg in 1623. For the inauguration of the church on the second Sunday in Advent that year, he wrote the hymn "Macht hoch die Tür". When he took up the post as minister the following Sunday, he wrote "" for the occasion. Weissel knew Johann Stobäus, the composer of the tune, already from the time of studies in Königsberg. He used a tune that Stobäus had created in 1613 for a wedding hymn "". The earliest extant print of ''Such, wer da will'' is a five-part motet by Stobäus in a collection ''Preußische Festlieder'' (Prussian festive hymns) that Stobäus published in 1642, of his works and those of his teacher Johannes Eccard. The song was included in several hymnals. In the current German ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
