This article discusses lexical borrowings from German into Czech. It is a continuation of our previous paper which deals with German-Czech language contact in Central Europe (Zeman 2021). Due to the longstanding coexistence of both the Czech and German/Austrian ethnics, lots of German/Austrian loan-words became domesticated in the Czech. A significant language contact area in Central Europe is the contact area which is based on the former centre of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. From this contact area, a remarkable territory emerged in Vienna that was particularly affected by the influence of Czech on German. Although there has been a high degree of inter-national mixing at various stages in history, there was never any real harm done to the essence of either of the two languages. A fascinating aspect is the parallel changes in pronunciation in both languages, for example, in vowel sounds and diphthongs. Today it is generally accepted that, to make these sound changes, both languages had to develop similar internal expectations and that these developed in parallel. Aim is a short description of phonological and morphological adaptation of the German loan words in south Moravian variety. The paper enabled to confirm that the phonological and morphological structures of German loan words in south Moravian variety are more differentiated than those of German. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The reconstruction of St Maurice in Olomouc was one of the most important building projects in late medieval Moravia. Research assumes that the work began in 1415 and continued, with several interruptions, into the late 15th century. This paper wants to critically examine the dating of the choir as eastern part of the parish church parish church between 1453 and 1483/1492. It approaches the building enterprise with a detailed analysis of the stylistic, typological and archaeological findings and highlights the dynamics behind the outlined designs. Especially the ambitious and, for this region, unusual designs share far-reaching artistic connections with important centers such as Wrocław, Brno and Vienna. Therefore, this paper proposes that the project's exceptional value is imbedded in Central Europe's architectural history. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article comprises two sections. The first section opens with an explanation of why the work concerned with supplementing and completing the existing regesta of Sigismund of Luxembourg's charters, which was started at Regesta Imperii in 2004, was abandoned in favour of a comprehensive revision. Following this, the paper gives a description of the development of the various projects in Vienna, Brno and Munich from 2004 to 2022, the progress which has already been made, both with regards to archival research and to the work on the abstracts themselves, as well as current plans for the future of the project. The first section concludes with an overview of how the guidelines for the creation of abstracts used in the Sigismund Project have evolved during this time. The second section of this paper includes the current version of these guidelines, which was written by the author himself in 2019. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper investigates discursive structures of spoken language in formal and informal communication settings (almost 62 hours of recorded time) of urban speakers in Austria's two biggest cities Vienna and Graz and their surroundings. We focus on so-called bipartite "Operator- Skopus-Strukturen" ('operator-scope-structures'), examining their pragmatic and discourse organising function within specific conversational situations. Our main aim is to offer in-depth analyses of these structures by characterising the mental and communicative status of such utterances. Starting out with a discussion of characteristics of spoken language research, especially by arguing for the replacement of the grammatical concept of sentences with the interactional concept of turn-constructional units, we address the phenomenon of discourse markers and Operator-Skopus-Strukturen in particular. This is followed by the description of our data set and the subsequent analyses and discussion of the selected examples. According to our findings, Operator-Skopus-Strukturen appear in both conversational settings and among all groups of speakers. We demonstrate that all speakers use the structures with the same pragmatic function of giving information to their conversation partner on how to interpret and understand the message behind the utterance. Within this scope, the speaker's intention can vary depending on the conversation partner, the topic of the conversation or the situation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Catalogues of Nuremberg Booksellers and the Book Trade in Prague and Vienna, 1700-1750. In the decades after 1680, barter trade led to the creation of major publishing companies in commercial hubs such as Leipzig, Nuremberg or Augsburg. Due to the increasing competition in those cities, many booksellers invested in long-distance trading. Especially book traders from Nuremberg managed to build long-term business relationships in the Austrian and Bohemian territories. Their catalogues illustrate the logistic challenges of long-distance trade. Major booksellers compiled special editions for their different markets: Nuremberg booksellers advertised their entire stock in catalogues containing up to 10,000 entries. This contribution asks questions about the categories of such catalogues: which labelling practises did booksellers use to advertise their products, and which conclusions may be drawn from this about their selection of books? Inventories and catalogues are key sources for analysing the history of the early modern book trade. In my paper, I do not intend to use inventories to reconstruct books as individual objects, for example as components of a private library. Instead, I will evaluate catalogues from the book trade in order to draw conclusions on the practices of major booksellers around 1700. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are three university institutes in Austria that focus on journalism research and teaching. The most important of them is the Vienna Institute. In the paper the author primarily orientates on the research of this institute, which has twice as many students as the other two institutes. Research at the Vienna Institute in the field of journalism focuses on the processes of public (media) mediated communication and its infrastructural conditions. This includes, in a comparative perspective, media systems, media organizations and media governance (people involved, processes and forms of the mediation of interests), history of media and communication (history of journalism), informative and entertaining media content, their use and effects, or on a wider scale a conflict and crisis communication.

This paper starts with a short debate on the role of the research method of "linguistic landscapes", which is part of the ethnographic paradigm. It presents multilingualism, or rather metrolingualism in the market place; a space where languages meet and intermingle and multilingual repertoires collaborate to make linguistic actions possible. The socio-demographic element of linguistic landscapes is also shown in the existence of China Town in Vienna. Multilingualism "from below" is contrasted to the official language policies of the country. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Compared to the Habsburg era, when Yiddish writings were hardly printed in Bukovina - due to the centralized policy of Vienna and the openness towards integration and assimilation on the part of numerous Bukovinian Jews, as well as because of the status of Yiddish as the language of uneducated Jews - the Yiddish printing industry, as well as the Yiddish libraries didn't develop until the early 1920s, simultaneously with the emergence of national identity concepts. This paper is based on descriptive research and discusses the importance of these institutions in shaping trajectories of cultural, national and linguistic identities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Urfehde (an oath of reconciliation guaranteed with a charter) has been used as a source in a wide range of research on the historical evolution of law, on delinquency in medieval and early modern times, and on criminal prosecution and jurisdiction. In this paper the author analyses the Urfehdebriefe issued by the late medieval Viennese town judge Mert Enthaimer (d. 1475) as a legal instrument as well as a means to enforce the judicial authority of the civic government over its citizens. In an evaluation of the various clauses and formulas in the Urfehde, the underlying issues regarding the urban community as well as their legal implications are highlighted. Finally, the Urfehden are presented as evidence of an increasingly professionalised administration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the middle of the 14th century, the chapel Maria am Gestade at the edge of the medieval city of Vienna was extended by a three-bay chancel with a double narthex and portal. Construction of the tower on a heptogonal groundplan was started at the same time. Besides stylistic and organizational connections with St. Stephan's Cathedral, the innovation of the choir can be seen in the reduction of the mural volume in favor of an enormous increase of the window size. The present paper combines the analysis of written sources with stylistic comparisons including the examination of the stonemarks. A final conclusion is made on the founder's intentions as well as on medieval use of the chancel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Apart from SC Hakoah and the Amateure (later Austria) no other Viennese football club of the first division had more Jewish members (sportsmen/sportswomen and officials) than the »First Vienna Football Club 1894«. In the period between the foundation of the club in 1894 and the National Socialist assumption of power in Austria in 1938, one third of the officials and many of the football players of the First Vienna Football Club - who were the pioneers of Austrian football - were Jews or Jewish converts. Jews especially dominated in the Club's leading positions and important functions. The First Vienna Football Club has not yet been researched in detail, which means that most academics remain unaware of the high level of Jewish participation in it. My paper aims at closing this knowledge gap and looks at the reasons for the substantial participation of Jews in the football club. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Jazz has been an integral part of the Austrian music scene since the postwar era and has found wide acceptance in the Austrian cultural landscape over time. This paper presents an overview of the most important developments and personalities in Austrian jazz history. The sources for this information include musicological texts on jazz in Austria as well as interviews with observers and active members of the jazz scene; online research is also of particular relevance, especially concerning more recent history. The first section, »From the beginnings to the end of World War II«, deals mainly with the early development of jazz until the Nazi era. The second, »Postwar and the 1960s« traces the beginnings of an independent scene and important Austrian expatriate musicians as well as discussing Graz as a stimulating force and academic institutionalization. The section »The late 1960s to the generational change of the late 1970s« deals with the Vienna scene as well as the influence of the »Vienna Art Orchestra« and its leading soloists from that period. The final section, »Stylistic pluralism - the 1980s to the present« examines various trends and musicians from the 1980s and 1990s as well as introducing the first generation of the new millennium.

The present paper shows the specific features of mortality in Vienna city in the 19th century. As a data source 5 parish registers were used. A detailed analysis of the causes of death reveals the reasons for the „epidemiological change" from the transition period of proto-industrialisation to the end of industrialisation. The mortality and their development is a useful indicator to describe changes of the urban health conditions when it is differentiated by age and cause of death. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents a position paper from faculty representatives of the University of Vienna, Austria, on matters relating to the study of sociology. The statement calls for a loosening of formal requirements, owing to the discipline's youth and consequent lack of reproducibility, and for sociology to focus as a science rather than serve as a debating society on the topic of theory and practice.
