Deposing Monarchs analyses depositions in Northern Europe between 1500 and 1700 as a type of frequent political conflict which allows to present new ideas on early modern state formation, monarchy, and the conventions of royal rulership.
The book revises earlier conceptualizations of depositions as isolated, unique events that emerged in the context of national historiographies. An examination of the official legitimations of depositions reveals that in times of crisis, concepts of tradition, rule of law, and political consensus are much more influential than the divine right of kings. Tracing the similarities and differences of depositions in Northern Europe transnationally and diachronically, the book shows monarchical succession as more non-linear than previously presumed. It offers a transferable model of the different elements needed in depositions, such as opposition to the monarch by multiple groups in a realm, the need for a convincing rival candidate, and a legitimation based on political traditions or religious ideas. Furthermore, the book bolsters our understanding of authority and rule as a constant process of negotiation, adding to recent research on political culture, and on the cultural history of politics.

Historische Erfahrungen und Ereignisse werden auf unterschiedliche Weise vermittelt, angeeignet und umgedeutet. Dieser Band betrachtet quantitative wie qualitative Verfahrensweisen und Funktionalisierungen der Aneignung und Umdeutung historischer Erfahrungen und Ereignisse in verschiedenen Medien von der Vormoderne bis in die Gegenwart.Die einzelnen Beiträge fokussieren Prozesse und Ergebnisse produktiver Geschichtsrezeption. Dabei zeigen sie nicht allein, wie sich über solche Transformationen Sinn- und Weltdeutungsmuster diskutieren lassen, sondern ebenso, wie in diesen Transformationen die Vermittlung von literarischen Texten und kulturellen Texturen zustande kommt und auf die Erinnerungskultur und das Geschichtsbewusstsein der jeweiligen Gesellschaft einwirkt.Mit einem Vorwort von Moritz Baßler.
