Few families in history are as well-known as the Habsburgs, one of Europe's most powerful sovereign dynasties from the thirteenth through the twentieth centuries. These captivating pages provide insights into the lives of its valued members. The lessons their lives offer will help lead your family in faith, allowing you to live in peace and prosperity while growing in holiness. Their mantras may also give a road map for repairing the world in which we live.
You'll learn about the Imperial House of Habsburg's saints and heroes, sinners, assassinations, and affairs, as well as the influence of freemasonry, Jansenism, and the Enlightenment on them and the rest of Europe. Eduard Habsburg, a member of the Habsburg dynasty and archduke of Austria, gives insights regarding the Seven Principles (maxims) at the heart of Habsburg thinking, behaviour, politics, and family life, as well as:
- The key ingredient for a stable marriage and how to create a deep bond between spouses
- The secret and value to a happy and productive family life
- How the Habsburg’s Empire was different from “Star Wars”
- Five dates to remember in Habsburg history and their significance
- How to die like a royal (and it’s not what you may think!)
You will learn about the importance of the Habsburgs in the great wars of Lepanto and Vienna, and you will be inspired by exemplary Habsburgs such as Bl. Emperor Karl and Rudolf I, the first Habsburg ruler of the Holy Roman Empire, who assisted a priest in bringing Viaticum to a dying man.
This amazing Habsburg history recounts Maria Theresia Habsburg- Lothringen's faithful reign, during which she rescued the family lands and arranged pilgrimages and national vigils in honour of Our Lady and the Holy Sacrament.
It relates how Emperor Charles V protected the Faith and how Venerable Magdalena, archduchess, and later Ferdinand II bravely fought the Reformation. You'll be amazed at how Leopold I brought his people to the zenith of Catholic piety and almost became a priest.
You will learn interesting Habsburg family mythology and how their marriages were planned (even in utero!). And you'll discover how they supported subsidiarity and shielded citizens from politicians — and the incredible importance it has for us today.
Our world now would undoubtedly be a better place if all of us, our society, and our leaders, studied and followed these Seven Guidelines for Difficult Times...
The Habsburg Way.
