Perry Pierik Horthy and the battle for the Hungarian nation state
the source of anti-European sentiment in Hungary
Hungary rose as a nation state after the First World War, from the ashes of the Dual Monarchy. State regent and admiral without a fleet, Miklós Horthy, played a crucial role herein. The path to independence was far from simple for the Hungarians. Shortly after the First World War the communists staged a coup and the Entente Powers, and in particular the Pan-Europeans amongst them, tried thereafter to reinstate the Habsburg Empire. This put Horthy, as former wing adjutant of the Austro-Hungarian...

Lepanto and beyond
images of religious alterity from Genoa and the Christian Mediterranean
The Battle of Lepanto, celebrated as the greatest triumph of Christianity over its Ottoman enemy, was soon transformed into a powerful myth through a vast media campaign. The varied storytelling and the many visual representations that contributed to shape the perception of the battle in Christian Europe are the focus of this book.

William C. Jandrew The first turn of the wheel
Japan and Russia at Khalkin Gol, 1939
The Battle of Khalkhin Gol (also called Nomonhan) sent shockwaves through world history. It was a testbed for future Soviet doctrine and a catalyst for the Japanese political upheaval that brought the United States into every theater of World War II. A rebuilding Russian army (still reeling from Stalin's purges) and its combined-arms doctrine faced off against Japan's modern bushido. The Soviet tactics used successfully here would prove devastating in the war to come. The Russian victory thwarted...

However, the pre-modern, especially medieval background of this discipline has remained underexplored. The selected case studies in this volume each contribute to a better understanding of the...
