Beschreibungen/Notizen
According to Thebesius, in this letter Posadowsky wrote that Bohemian High Chancellor Johann Hartwig von Nostitz18 (1610-1683) had strongly discouraged the delegation's appearance at the imperial court. [...]Roth certainly participated in the Wroclaw conference, which as mentioned above began on 29 November, and he must have left for Vienna at the very beginning of December, arriving there long enough before 12 December to assist Posadowsky in the preparation of documents. Since additions by Roth were apparently limited to the single mention of schools, and since the removal of the passage on religion may have necessitated only minor syntactical changes in the remaining text, the memorial in its final form (appendix C) should be considered essentially the work of Lohenstein. According to their arguments, the imperial panegyrics in the Lob-Schrifft should be considered neither a transparent expression of unconditional devotion, nor necessarily a mere exercise in dutiful submission, but rather a leveling of expectations for benevolent rule at the emperor.49 Wichert's and Borgstedt's interpretations recognize the political necessity that motivated such praise for Leopold, but they go further by calling attention to the stipulatory nature of that praise.
