    • 5167 Words
    • 14 Pages

    The essay aims to explore the various agents and components of the laws, and the political, social and international conditions that surrounded such policies. This essay approaches the topic initially with an examination of the contemporary context of the Kulturkampf, looking at both relations inside Germany and with the Vatican. The climate of this period is particularly important in understanding the Kulturkampf, as it discusses the political exponents and opponents of the Kulturkampf laws, both political and ecclesiastical. This shall be then followed by an examination of the legislation that became the political expression of the Kulturkampf. This is obviously a key point in assessing the success of the laws, and is important in establishing the areas and reasons of support for the ‘struggle’ and the resistance against it. The essay naturally moves towards to discussing the public and political responses towards the Kulturkampf. The essay concludes with an examination of the repeal of the legislation and the short-term aftermath of the laws, and its ultimate failure in providing a culturally unified Germany.…

    In this essay, I will attempt to assess the extent of Martin Luther's role in the Protestant reformation that took place at the beginning of the sixteenth century in Germany. Luther's name is synonymous with the religious Reformation of the sixteenth century, or the 'evangelical movement' as it is sometimes called, but the actual details of the Reformation itself are somewhat lesser known. Luther's role in the Reformation is well publicised, but his contribution to other areas of religious life is often forgotten. Luther reinvented the German language, making his sermons and later, the bible, accessible to thousands of German citizens,…

    Numerous factors have lead to the progressive creation of a unified Germany by 1871; such factors are fundamentally related to economic, political or military origins. To accurately understand the reasoning behind the unification, one must look at the history preceding it – The after-effects of the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire; The significance of the French revolutions and Napoleonic Wars on Germanic national identity; the degradation of Austria’s national power; the introduction of the Zollverein in 1834 and the Prussian economic superiority that followed in addition to the industrialisation of the German states all contribute towards economic and political factors relating to the formation of a unified Germany under Prussia’s direction. Military factors contributing towards the unification of Germany include the defeat and exile of Napoleon Bonaparte; Otto Von Bismarck’s foreign policy based strongly around ‘realpolitik’; the significance of the ‘New Model Army’ on Prussia’s military prominence in addition to the conclusive Franco-Prussian war.…
