By Bernhard Weidenbach

Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject History - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) (Kulturwissenschaftliche Fakult t), course: Moving Borders. A Cultural History of Poland, 1772-2007, language: English, abstract: In the conflict around the (second) Siege and Battle of Vienna, two antagonist leaders stuck out (among others) and are stressed out within the paper. On the one hand this is the Polish King John III Sobieski, who rushed to Vienna with a 'multinational' European army to relief the city and on the other hand this is the Ottoman Grand Vizier Kara Mustafa, who for his rushed to Vienna before - with an army that was possibly not less 'multinational' than the Sobieski's ones. The historic relevance of these both figures and their opposing conduct, perception and legacy is the topic of this paper.
