Abstract The French writer, poet, and biographer of Pope Clement XIV, Louis Antoine Caraccioli published his biography of Joseph II, La Vie de Joseph II, immediately upon the emperor's death. This was possible because he had been collecting materials for a biography for some years. Cataloging and acclaiming all of Joseph's reforms, he gave the emperor uncritical credit for the abolition of serfdom and of peasant labor services (robot), both civil and penal law reforms, the revival of trade, the creation of a disciplined army, education reforms, the building of hospitals and other public social service institutions, the abolition of superstition, the reform of the Church, the construction of roads and the "complete" abolition of mendicancy. Here, Szabo looks at some of Joseph II biographies written since 1790.
AbstractList Historians of the Habsburg Monarchy continue to use biography effectively to come to terms with the peculiar complexities of this empire. Of the monarchs none has received more attention from biographers than Joseph II. Thanks to the dramatic and sweeping reforms of his brief reign he has often been called the "revolutionary emperor" and has kindled the imagination of biographers from the time of his death to the twenty-first century. The recent appearance of two new biographies, and above all the completion of the two-volume study by the renowned Cambridge historian Derek Beales, provides an opportunity to trace the development of the biographical historiography of this controversial monarch and to assess the degree to which the biographical approach has brought us nearer to an understanding of the "enlightened absolutism" in the Habsburg Monarchy. Adapted from the source document.
