New Goods for a New Society – Belgrade and Habsburg Central Europe
Апстракт
The Austrian occupation of Belgrade in 1717
brought to the city a new cycle of transformations.
As so many times before, the new war
conditions at this important geostrategic location
required a series of interventions aimed at
improving the defensive capabilities of its fortifications,
whereas the presence of new military
troops and an army of various craftsmen
and merchants in it affected the everyday life
of its citizens in many ways. From the time of
the transformation of Belgrade into the fortified
capital of Despot Stefan Lazarević (r.
1404–1427), the city underwent and adopted
major cultural changes. Its short-lived sojourn
within the borders of the Serbian state was
succeeded by Hungarian rule for the best part
of a century, only to be followed by nearly two
hundred years under the Ottomans. Every
change of ruler was accompanied by an almost
total disruption of the continuity of material
culture, that is, by an inevitable adoption of different cultural patte...rns. This new change
in the early eighteenth century, the latest in
the series, once again connected Belgrade with
Central European artisanal and artistic circles.
Unlike the previous time, that is, the period of
Hungarian rule and Gothic artisanal and artistic
trends during the Middle Ages, the cultural
milieu at the beginning of the Modern Age
was shaped in accordance with the tenets of
monumental Baroque and in the conditions of
a new economic policy – Mercantilism. The key role in the concept of the new
Baroque-style city was played by the standing
army, whose task, in addition to making conquests,
was to maintain order. Prince Eugene
of Savoy’s reorganisation of armed forces relied
on commandeering, that is, forced recruitment
of regiments for service in certain regions, predominantly
in the crown lands, such as Austria,
Bavaria, Bohemia and Hungary, but also in
other regions, so that there were soldiers who spoke French, Flemish, Italian,
Serbian and Croatian. Besides its diversified
ethnic composition, the Austrian army was
also full of soldiers of various occupations,
mostly because of the recruitment of craftsmen,
who greatly assisted in the performance of repairs
and the production of necessary items.
