Zusammenfassung: | The realm of the Orthodox Archbishopric of Karlovci in the Austrian Habsburg Empire was like no other founded on the concept of liminal-ity. Established in 1690, the archbishopric was, from its outset, a highly peculiar space-in-between. This Orthodox domain in the Catholic Empire was never truly its own master and constantly threatened to be dissolved into the Catholic majority. The archbishopric had to perpetually re-invent itself and forge new legitimacies that were as ephemeral as its transient glory. Its liminal existence emerged saliently in ceremonial spaces, staged to celebrate the domain’s fragile power. From liminal landscapes depict-ing forlorn glory, to processions staged upon its cities’ disowned spaces, the archbishopric’s political propaganda was deeply marked by spatial ambiguities. |
