Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The research seminar will look at the role of print media for the foreign üpolicy making of the Habsburg monarchy in the second half of the 19th century. After a series of introductory sessions, in which pre-circulated papers will be used to discuss Austrian foreign policy also from a cultural studies perspective, the seminar will analyse the rich collection of press clippings at the Haus-Hof- und Staatsarchiv. This will allow us a profound discussion of the role of print media for foreign policy making and of the representation of the Habsburg Monarchy in foreign newspapers.
