1578: Encyclopedia II - Plantations of Ireland - Early Plantations

The early Plantations of Ireland occurred in the context of the Tudor re-conquest of Ireland. This hoped to pacify and Anglicise Ireland under English rule, incorporating Ireland’s native ruling classes into the English aristocracy. By this means, it was hoped that Ireland would become a peaceful and reliable possession and would no longer be a source of rebellions and base for foreign invasions. "Plantations" or colonisation, played a major part in this policy. They took two forms in the first half of the 16th century. The first was "exem ...

The Leopoldsgruft was built under the nave of the church above, beginning in 1657 by Emperor Leopold I,37 following the edict of his father Emperor Ferdinand III27 that the hereditary burial place of the imperial family would be in this church.

Portugal - Lusitania. Main articles: Pre-Roman and Roman Lusitania In the early first millennium BC, several waves of Celts invaded Portugal from Central Europe and intermarried with local peoples, the Iberians, forming the Celt-Iberians.

1578: Encyclopedia II - Cathedral of Saint Bavo - History

Since 1853 the church of St. Joseph had served as a cathedral but it proved to be too small almost immediately, despite enlargements. Bishop Bottemanne started the planning for building a new cathedral in 1893, which was to serve as a cathedral as well as a parish church. The original intention was to ask Pierre Cuypers to design the church, and it's possible he even made a first design, but due to his age his son, Joseph Cuypers, became the architect instead. Cuypers at first designed a church in a neo-gothic style that still clearly ...

1578: Encyclopedia II - Croatia in the Habsburg Empire - 19th century up to WWI

The governments of Austria and Hungary each tried to colonize Croatia over a period of several centuries: they imposed their languages on the Croatian people and settled many Austrian and Hungarian colonists in Croatia. Croatian romantic nationalism emerged to counteract the non-violent but apparent Germanization and Magyarization. The Croatian national revival began in the 1830s with the Illyrian Movement. The movement was misnamed (some wrongly thought that they primarily descended from the ancient Illyrians rather than the Slav settlers), ...

The Battle of Alcazarquivir in 1578 saw both the death of the young king Sebastian and the end of the House of Aviz. Sebastian's successor, the Cardinal Henry of Portugal, was 70 years old at the time.

1578: Encyclopedia II - Portuguese Empire - The beginnings of the empire 1415-1580

The countries that we now know as Spain and Portugal spent the Middle Ages after 722 in an intermittent struggle called the Reconquista. This struggle pitted the northern Christian kingdoms against the Islamic kingdoms of the South and among themselves. The Portuguese Reconquista culminated in 1272 with the conquest of Algarve by Afonso III, setting Portuguese borders almost in the Iberian Peninsula. During the 15th century, the Crown of Aragon and Portugal expanded territorially seawards (Castille did not complete the conquest ...

1578: Encyclopedia II - Ironclad warship - 19th century ironclads

At the Battle of Sinope in 1853, the Russian Baltic Fleet, equipped with newly developed Paixhans guns using explosive shells, destroyed a flotilla of wooden Turkish ships with contemptuous ease. This early engagement of the Crimean War signaled the importance of iron armor to the navies of the world. During the war, the French and British navies collaborated on the design of ironclad floating batteries for reducing Russian defenses which had previously held off attempts at bombardment by wooden hulled battleships. The French used theirs in ...

1578: Encyclopedia II - Limehouse - History

From its earliest days, Limehouse, like neighbouring Wapping, has followed the sea. This was one of London's most important ports from late medieval times, with extensive docks and wharves, including the enclosed Limehouse Basin. Limehouse Basin was actually opened in 1820 as the Regent's Canal Dock. It was an important connection between the Thames and the British canal system where cargoes could be transferred from larger ships to the shallow-draught canal boats. This mix of vessels can still be seen in the basin, canal narrow boats rub ...

Ferrara, in the 1580s and 1590s, was one of the most musically advanced and sophisticated places in Europe. Under the patronage of Duke Alfonso II d'Este the court developed into a place of musical experimentation, with a group of virtuoso female singers (the concerto di donne) available to an equally virtuoso group of composers, who included Luzzaschi, Agostini, and in the 1590s, Carlo Gesualdo. They all wrote music for the enjoyment of a small group of connoisseurs, including the Duke himself. In this rarefied atmosphere an avant-ga ...
