PROTECTION AND RESTORATION OF HISTORIC MONUMENTS AS A CULTURAL POLICY OF THE AUSTRO- HUNGARIAN MONARCHY

The conjunction of national political movements and research into monuments of national past was relatively straightforward in unitary national states. Matters were more complex, however, in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which was pre-eminently multi-ethnic and multilingual. Culture, arts, and public institutions were intertwined in the ethnically and religiously heterogeneous Monarchy. Stylistic restoration as a reflection of Viennese historicism and, later, modern conservation was also an instrument of the policy of unity in diversity. With these themes in mind, the article discusses, among other issues, Max Dvořák’s support of Franz Ferdinand’s concept of trialism.
