Die Ortelius-Karte von Luxemburg und ihre Zustände [The Ortelius Map of Luxembourg and its Different States], S. 149-160
The map of Luxembourg included in Ortelius’ atlas Theatrum Orbis Terrarum is one of the earliest maps of the duchy, dating back to the 16th century. Until now five variations of this map were known. This paper presents two further states, which have been discovered recently. The first state may be traced back to Jakob Surhon. Additional cartographic information in the states 2-4 stems from Jan van Schille and other contemporary cartographers (presumably Tillmann Stella, Christian Sgrooten and Frans Hogenberg). The states 5-7 only differ in terms of engravings.

Un dessin de Jacques Pennier (1656 – vers 1720) représentant l’ancien château de Mansfeld à Luxembourg-Clausen [A painting of Jacques Pennier (1656 – ca. 1720) showing the ancient Mansfeld palace in Luxembourg-Clausen], S. 161-187
The topic of the present paper is the introduction of an unknown painting of the palace „La Fontaine“ in Luxembourg-Clausen painted by Jacques Pennier (1656 – ca. 1720). The painting is included in an album dedicated to the Prince of Conti, which illustrated the military campaign of Louis XIV. The authors examine the question whether the artist saw the palace himself or whether he used and reproduced known paintings which were accessible. The text contains a detailed account of the constructional accordances and differences between the painting of Pennier and contemporary known paintings and descriptions as well as the real archaeological results.

Der Erbvertrag von Peter-Ernst von Mansfeld mit den Grafen von Mansfeld-Vorderort zu Gunsten von Marie de Montmorency [The Testamentary Contract between Peter-Ernst von Mansfeld and the Counts of Mansfeld-Vorderort in Favour of Marie de Montmorency], S. 189-204
There are numerous gaps in our knowledge of the marriage of Peter-Ernst I von Mansfeld and Marie de Montmorency. One such gap is with regard to the financial protection of Marie in the case of the death of her spouse. The following source critique deals with a marriage agreement between Peter Ernst and his relatives, which was issued on 16th of June 1563 (from the holdings of the archives of Saxony-Anhalt (Department of Magdeburg) and contained the inheritance of the Amt Salzmünde and a one-off payment of 1400 Rhenish guilder. Due to the debt burden of the Mansfeld dynasty and the division of their possessions on the 21st of June 1563, the inheritance contract must be analysed in this specific context. The ratification of the treaty should ultimately prevent legal titles on Salzmünde after the death of Peter-Ernst. Furthermore, that step should not be infringed upon in the case of liquidation of the debts.

Von Flamma zum Flamarium. Zur Geschichte der Feuerbestattung im Großherzogtum Luxemburg, 1900-2015 [From Flamma to Flamarium. The History of Cremation in the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg, 1900-2015], S. 205-232
Luxembourg is a ‘delayed nation’, as far as cremation is concerned. It was in 1995 that the Grand Duchy opened its own cremation center, only ahead of Malta and Cyprus in the EU zone. While the discussion about the pros and cons of cremation is mirroring the general debate of the last hundred years since the introduction of this alternative form of burial and funeral technique in neighboring countries, especially in Germany and France, the case study of Luxembourg also offers insights into the development of a small state shaped by its Catholic heritage. This mentality-argument is, however, only one side to be considered when investigating the history of cremation. Another decisive factor is the embeddedness of Luxemburg
in a transnational context.
