Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2256 Fiery frenzy (sixteen)

  The patriarchate of St. Donatin's Church in Bruges is baroque, in order to resist the Reformation, which happened to be the period of Spanish rule.

  Even though the Spaniards gave the Dutch autonomy, the Netherlands broke out against the Spanish rule of the "Netherlands Revolution", or the Eighty Years' War.

  The king of Spain at that time was a famous Catholic, and the prosperity of the Netherlands was not unrelated to the Hanseatic League. The main participants in the Hanseatic League were North Germans, Britain, Sweden and other Protestant countries. The reforms of Archduke Joseph II of Austria included freedom of belief for the Protestant minority, the demilitarization of citizenship, and the abolition of ashrams and parish seminaries. The people who opposed him were mainly Catholics. At this time, the Hanseatic League had disintegrated, and the former "Lion of the North" Sweden had also weakened. The Protestants could no longer support William of Orange as they did in the 17th century, and fought against the Spaniards. Several games.

  The Inquisition is not just a trial of witches, but also "heretics" and is sometimes used to exclude dissidents. William of Orange was finally elected by the Dutch people as the monarch of the Dutch Republic, but he was assassinated by a Spanish assassin in his home. King Philip II of Spain offered a reward of 40,000 dong to hunt down the assassin, but the Spanish did not take the opportunity to continue. The war, because William's son inherited the Dutch royal family, it was also William III and Mary II of the Orange family who replaced James' son after the overthrow of the tyrant James II and were supported by the British Parliament as the king of the United Kingdom.

   There are a lot of things she really shouldn't care about, but if the wizards ask the king to legislate to recognize and protect wizards can't succeed, then at least those witchcraft-related laws can be abolished.

However, Joseph II did not have these provisions in the new penal code introduced for Austria and Hungary in 1787, his reforms were resisted in Belgium, and the conscription of the French Directorate in 1798 and 1799 provoked Belgian peasant riots and was met with Extremely brutal repression.

There is a clear difference between the peasantry and the middle class. The French Revolution was a thorough bourgeois revolution. In 1789, the conservatives and progressives in the Netherlands united against Austria. The conservative centralists won a common victory and clashed with each other. Eventually the conservative statists entered Brussels, but the peasants still supported Austria.

This movement is known as the Brabant Uprising, because the rebel army announced the establishment of the United States of Brabant after the occupation of Brussels, and promulgated the constitution in 1790, but the leaders of the uprising, Nott and Onke, broke up because of political differences, and the United Front was broken. Unck went into exile, and the newly ascended Austrian Emperor Leopold II immediately dispatched troops to defeat Nott and recapture Brussels without public opposition.

   In other words, the Belgian upper class opposed Austrian rule and the peasantry supported it; the upper class accepted French rule, and the peasantry opposed it.

   There was a case in Switzerland where there was a maid named Anna Gerardi, who worked for a family surnamed Ttrudi. However, she had a "love relationship" with the male owner of the family, and Ttrudi was married at the time and was the father of two children. After Galerdi became pregnant, he wanted to make their relationship public, and Ttrudi was afraid After the incident was exposed, he lost his reputation and status, so he conspired with friends and relatives who worked in the church and the court to accuse Galeridi of being a witch and putting poison needles in his daughter's milk bottle in an attempt to poison his child. Di was tortured and finally surrendered, and was beheaded in 1782.

Mr. Ttrudi's daughter is still breastfeeding, which means that his wife should be pregnant and give birth soon. Not only did he sleep with the maid during his wife's pregnancy, but after the maid was pregnant, he wanted to kill her to keep her mouth shut. reputation and status. But this judicial murder was sent to a German newspaper with the truth and original documents by a member of the church who witnessed the whole event. Laws related to witchcraft or sorcery were removed, and it was rumored that Galedi was the "last witch" in Europe.

  The prohibition of witchcraft is one of the great achievements of European history, and accusing someone of witch hunt has become an effective way of condemning, but the current situation is not as simple as future people think.

   The process of European modernization completely changed the rules of the game after the collapse of Western Rome, and the French Revolution completely abolished imaginary crime. You have to first understand which world you live in, infrastructure, agricultural production, industrial development, housing, sanitation, health care, etc., people are still dying from malaria, smallpox, cholera. Beer was a popular drink for the army during Gustav's Thirty Years' War, which often caused water pollution, and soldiers who drank that water would surely lose their combat effectiveness.

In the fable of the bee, there is such a sentence, honor and religion are contradictory, some people command you to use patience to fight harm, some people will tell you, if you don't hate those who hurt you, you will There is no law of survival. Religion requires you to give your revenge to God, but honor requires you not to rely on others to accomplish your revenge, the only one you can rely on is yourself.

  Religion stipulates that no murder is allowed, but honor publicly admits that murder is legal. Soldiers regard killing a large number of enemies as a kind of merit. How can the two be harmonious and unified?

   The author could not think of an answer to this question, and he hoped that someone wiser than him would deal with it.

In ancient Germanic law there was no formal procedure for condemning the king as a necessary precondition for punishing or overthrowing the king, nor did there exist a judicial procedure for the king's wrongdoing, which the people resolved violently in the Prague Throwing out the window incident. question.

   But there is this sentence:

  Sciatquodobsequiumsibinondebetur,

  Quitnegatservicium, quodoetenetur.

   (Let him know that one does not need to obey the one who renounces his duty to God.)

This involves all the right of resistance of the Germanic nation. This is not the kind of resistance of uprising or rebellion. In the early medieval concept, the basic obligation of the subjects to the ruler is allegiance, but allegiance is different from obedience. Only when both sides maintain good faith Under the circumstances, one party has an obligation to the other party.

  If the king breaks the law, he automatically relinquishes his right to demand obedience from his subjects, and in any case it is not lawful to throw his mistresses into pieces and throw them out of the window like rubbish, although it is not the king who committed such atrocities.

Only a loyal king can have loyal subjects. On the other hand, the poor rule of the monarch may also be due to the deception of flatterers and treacherous counselors, who become loyal villains, in order to make the king no longer deceived and make the The king is no longer enslaved by treacherous ministers. In this case, the people are brave enough to "oppose the king for the king's sake". This is the right to resist.

The French Republic annexed the Principality of Liege. The ruler of the Principality of Liege was the Archbishop. In the 11th century, Bishop of Liege, Vazzo, directly pointed out the difference between obedience and allegiance in the struggle for authority. He said to the king that for the Pope, he Obedience must be obeyed, and to the king he must be loyal. In the church system, people must obey higher authority, but this premise is to teach higher authority not to make mistakes. If he makes a mistake, he does not need to obey unconditionally. For example, in the murder of Galerdi, the low-level priest gave the information reporter.

  The right of resistance exists in the secular and the church. The reason why Bruges refused to dig through the canal with the Rees River for the second time is that such digging will cause negative problems and cause more harm than good, so they are using the right of resistance justifiably.

The church and the secular are not always in conflict. In the 9th century, the church and the secular resistance formed an alliance. After Charlemagne, the Carolingian dynasty has always had the title of Roman emperor, but only the title, the Eastern Roman Empire in 1453. Before its demise, it was called the "Roman Empire", and Constantinople was called the New Rome.

  Due to Diocletian's system of four emperors, Rome was divided into two parts, east and west. The Eastern Roman Empire was different from Western Rome, which believed in polytheism, and also avoided the difficulties encountered by Western Rome in the 3rd and 4th centuries.

  Eastern Rome had to face Persians, Slavs, and West Rome had to face Vikings, Goths, etc. The four sons of Louis the Pious were born to two women. The first three were mothers. The fourth son, Charlie the Bald, was his second wife, Judith of Bavaria. His son was active in fighting for a territory, but this harmed the interests of the other half-brothers, which eventually led to a civil war that divided the Frankish Empire, and Charles the Bald gained the western part of the empire through the Treaty of Verdun, forming what would become France, The eastern part of the empire became the Kingdom of Italy and the Holy Roman Empire.

Lotaire inherited the imperial title and was assigned to the Middle Frank kingdom west of the Rhine and the Alps. The Germanic Louis was assigned to the east of the Rhine. As the last monarch of East Frank, Louis, died without a child, so the Duke of East Frank They elected a non-Carolingian German monarch, and the Carolingian succession system was abolished.

   And the alliance of the church and the secular resistance came into being in the chaos of the 9th century, because the secular dignitaries, in the name of God, adjudicated and eliminated dissent...

"What are you looking at?"

   Leon lifted the quilt and lay beside her.

  I'm thinking that men don't always make good judgments and do emotionally stupid things.

   "Can I ask you a question." She put down the book and looked at him.

   He looked at her too.

   "Do I look ambitious?"

   He laughed.

"what's so funny?"

   "Did you like the paintings in this house?" he asked rhetorically.

   "You told me not to take these artworks." She frowned.

   "Then what are your ambitions?" he asked slowly.

   She thought about it for a long time.

   "Eliminate poverty," she said insincerely.

   "Liar, how can Wendini only ask others to be honest with her."

   For her, the most important thing is to ban witch hunts.

   But he kissed her, as if he didn't really want to know what her "ambition" was.

   "How about not playing Vindini?" He said softly, "How about Sylph the Wind Spirit?"

   She soon wakes up from the "magic" he created.

  Silf is easy to be confused with other air elves, but she has a characteristic, when she marries a mortal, the mortal will get immortality, which is an indispensable element in alchemy to become a sage's stone.

  Salamander is the same name as the fire element spirit, and there is also the earth element spirit Norm...

   "How about we dress up as Smurfs?" she laughed. "It must be cute."

   "What is that?" he asked.

So she sang: "There is a group of Smurfs on the other side of the mountain and the sea, they are lively and smart, they are naughty and sensitive, they live freely in the big green forest, they are kind and brave and care about each other. ."

   He looked at her seriously.

   "The kids in our place all know what a smurf is. It's a kind of elf native to Belgium." She touched his smooth and white face. "First you have to paint your skin blue."

   He also had to wear white trousers. His uniform trousers were all white, which happened to be ready-made.

   But when she imagined that picture, she couldn't help but want to laugh, the shape was more exaggerated than making him push a chicken.

   She endured it for a long time and didn't dare to laugh out loud, because he didn't allow her to laugh, she was about to hold back her internal injuries.

   "Because we're all short? Playing dwarfs?" he said grimly.

   "Trust me, that's much cuter than a goblin."

   "What is a goblin?"

   "A garden pest."

   "You don't pretend to be a fairy, you want to be a pest?"

   "Whoever said play a goblin, I said Smurfs."

   "What is their power?" he asked defiantly.

   Later, when she thought that the Smurfs were dealing with Gargamel, she thought it was no fun.

   "You play a fairy, what am I to play?" he asked lazily.

   "How about you play the Roman soldier who chopped off the giant's hand?"

   He shook his head, lay back in his place again, and discussed with her about tomorrow's dress.

   In fact, he can pretend to be no one, just a mortal who is loved by a fairy. But whether it's breaking the oath with Vindini and not being able to sleep, or getting immortality like Sylph, it's a curse.

   So mortals should stay away from another world.
