The Age of Heroes in Historiography: The Example of Prince Eugene of Savoy*
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 April 2013
Extract
Almost every national historiography has at one time or another emphasized a certain era dominated by the alleged extraordinary feats of particular individuals. Modern nationalists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries often sought support for their founding myths in their histories, exploiting imagery of heroic eras and their heroes for the needs of the present. The work of historians played an integral part of this mythmaking process. The German word Heldenzeitalter [Age of Heroes] is a concept with exactly such strong historiographical dimension. The term is not precise. It has variously been used to denote the mythic era of German sagas, the time of the Völkerwanderungen [migrations of peoples], and the Ostrogoth king Theodoric (sixth century). The same concept of an “age of heroes” is also fundamental to understanding Austrian historiography. This age constitutes a basic element of the Austrian national idea, and as with the other applications of the term “Age of Heroes,” the Austrian version, which was largely a nineteenth-century historiographical construct, was also fed by epics and poetry and myth making. The ruling Habsburg dynasty also actively supported the design of an Austrian Age of Heroes, at whose center could be found the figure of Prince Eugene of Savoy (1663–1736).

A similar message was “hidden” in the 1866 placing of Fernkorn's monument of Ban Josip Jelačić in the main square of Zagreb, pointing north. In a wholly different time from the Heldenzeitalter, the image of Josip Jelačić was similarly exploited in his Croatian surroundings, for good or ill, as a symbol of Austrian might and Croatia's part in the strengthening of this notion. His reputation as a general and statesman served the purpose of solidifying the special relationship between the ruling dynasty and the Croatian people. Similarly to the Viennese fête, but in a much more modest fashion, a “Prinz-Eugen-Feier” was held in 1902 in Vezirac near Petrovaradin, where a monument of the cross was dedicated to Eugene's military victory of 1716. The monument, made by the architect Hermann Bollé, was opened with a ceremonial morning mass and speeches listened by 25,000 people, as reported by the Pester Lloyd and Agramer Zeitung. The statue of Ban Jelačić had been proclaimed as a monument of the “black-yellow general”—it was removed in 1947 and returned in 1990. Since then, it has been facing south.

32 These were written by historians Friedrich J. Heller, Joseph von Hormayr, Johann Heinrich Hennes, and Franz Georg Friedrich von Kausler, among whom the work of the Austrian military historian and Generalstaboffizier Friedrich Jakob Heller (1789–1866) can be highlighted, who, when working in the Kriegsarchiv, collected an ample body of Eugene's correspondence based on similar publications in England and Germany. On the other hand, Kausler's book, which proclaimed the use of new, never before used sources, is nothing more than a semidependable reconstruction of Eugene's military campaigns and battles. When Kausler leaves the narrow confines of military-political relations, he relies on the biographies familiar to him at the time, not bringing up any new aspects while doing this.

48 An article by Friedrich Engel-Jánosi (1893–1978) about the prince's relationship with culture is perhaps the most significant such article in this period of Austrian historiography.

52 The Croatian historian Josip Matasović (1892–1962), an expert in cultural history of the eighteenth century, put forward this argument. He saw Eugene as an exponent of the dynasty's political, cultural, and economic power that reflected on Croatia in a negative light. He wrote on Eugene's campaign in Sarajevo in a similar fashion. In spite of some faintly visible elements of Matasović's ideological orientation, it is ironic that in antagonizing the Habsburgs he paved the way for a historical interpretation of Bosnian history that would only later become relatively conventional—a more positive evaluation of the Ottoman government in Bosnia.

88 Interestingly, parallel with these thoughts, Filip Lukas (1871–1958), a Croatian geographer and president of the Matica hrvatska (1928–1945), blamed the policy of Austria and the migration of the Catholic population, which was authorized by Prince Eugene on returning from his Bosnian campaign of 1697. Lukas seeks to emphasize that the Croatian and Christian element in Bosnia was thus weakened and left its place to be filled by others. As thorough demographical research has still not been made, the data varies. While Lukas in 1942 writes of “40,000 Catholic natives,” younger Bosnian historians such as Mustafa Imamović mention larger figures. Imamović claims that 70,000 Catholics retreated with Eugene's army from Bosnia but does not specify whether they are the native population. Some newer histories of Bosnia do not mention the exodus of the Christian population of the time, possibly attempting to diminish the Christian tradition of early Bosnia. Noel Malcolm writes of thousands of Catholics who were led by Eugene, but he clearly states the possibility that this population intended to return with some future army.
