Clarissa Campbell Orr notes in the introduction to a 2004 collection of essays concerning the role of the European queen consort in the Baroque era that “there is little comparative work in English on any facet of European Court life in the period from 1660 to 1800.” See Clarissa Campbell Orr, “Introduction” in Clarissa Campbell Orr (ed.), Queenship in Europe: 1660–1815: The Role of the Consort (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2004), p. 2. There are strong exceptions to Orr’s conclusion, including the works of Jeroen Duidam and T.C.W. Blanning, which compare the culture, structure, and politics of Early Modern courts revealing both change and continuity but these stud- ies devote little space to the specific role of the queen consort within her family and court.

Paris: Picard, 2014. 221 pp. Illustrations, plans, genealogical tables, bibliography. 69.00€ (pb). ISBN 978-2-7084-0962-0. Review by Nicola Courtright, Amherst College. Anne de France: Art et pouvoir en 1500, acts of a colloquium that took place in Moulins in March 2012, edited by Thierry Crépin-Leblond and Monique Chatenet, contains relatively brief but invaluable chapters stocked with new information and original interpretations. It is divided in two: the first half is dedicated to studies about Anne of France, daughter of Louis XI and sister of his son Charles VIII, and the other half to her patronage and that of other notable, politically active noblewomen--regents and queens--influenced by Anne circa 1500. Throughout the entire volume, the authors seek to indicate ways in which these women’s acts and patronage of art and architecture exhibit some kind of political authority. They unearth documents, explore the visual valence of objects and architecture, and examine literary texts to argue that Anne of France, Margaret of Austria, and Anne of Brittany played a significant role in the history of Europe in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. A major strength of this collection is how authors are deeply engaged with drilling down into the documents to find new material to apply to the questions they pose or offer new interpretations of little-known material.

This broader picture of court politics and diplomatic networks – which also relied on familial and kin ties – provides a way of studying the political role of women in early modern Europe. This role has to be studied taking into account the overlapping of familial and political concerns, where the intersection of women as mediators and coordinators of extended networks is a central feature of European societies.

The blockade has received modest attention in the historiography of the First World War, despite the assertion in the British official history that extreme privation and hunger resulted in more than 750,000 German civilian deaths.

It explores the complex manner in which these central Italian cities both emulated and rejected the political and cultural hegemony of Rome through the ideological and performative reinvention of its cult icons. In the twelfth century the powerful urban center of Tivoli adopted Rome’s grandest annual public event, the nocturnal Assumption procession of August 14-15, and transformed it into a potent civic expression that incorporated all sectors of the social fabric. Tivoli’s cult of the Trittico del Salvatore and the Inchinata procession in which the icon of the enthroned Christ was carried at the feast of the Assumption and made to perform in symbolic liturgical ceremonies were both modeled on Roman, papal exemplars.

P. PUTNAM'S SONS 1913 PRINTED AT THE BALLANTYNE PRESS TAVI STOCK STREET CoVENT GARDEN LONDON THE story of the Borgia family has always been of interest one strangely fascinating ; but a lurid legend grew up about their lives, which culminated in the creation of the fantastic monstrosities of Victor Hugo's play and Donizetti's opera. For three centuries their name was a byword for the vilest but in our there has been infamy ; own day an extraordinary swing of the pendulum, which is hard to account for. Quite a number of para- doxical writers have proclaimed to an astonished and mystified world that Pope Alexander VI was both a wise prince and a gentle priest whose motives and actions have been maliciously mis- noble- represented ; that Cesare Borgia was a minded and enlightened statesman, who, three centuries in advance of his time, endeavoured to form a united Italy by the only means then in Lucrezia anybody's power ; and that Borgia was a paragon of all the virtues. " " It seems to have been impossible to whitewash the Borgia without a good deal of juggling with the evidence, as well as a determined attack on the veracity and trustworthiness of the contemporary b v PREFACE historians and chroniclers to whom we are indebted for our knowledge of the time.

  • 4711, Le Saviez Vous
    Le saviez-vous ? Pour l’administration du territoire national, la Révolution a créé les départements à la place des provinces. Ils furent identifiés par des noms en rapport avec la topographie de leur situation géographique et le plus souvent, par le nom des fleuves ou rivières qui les traversent. Pour ces derniers, il existe une particularité : le département du Var. À l’origine, ce fleuve côtier traversait le département du même nom et lui donnait son appellation. Aujourd’hui, il s’écoule entièrement dans le département des Alpes-Maritimes et plus du tout dans celui du Var. Que s’était-il donc passé ? En1860 lors du rattachement de la Savoie et du Comté de Nice à la France, on se rendit compte que le territoire du Comté était tout petit et que pour en faire un département, il fallait étoffer sa surface. Pour cela, on reprit au nord une partie du département des Basses-Alpes et à l’ouest une partie du département du Var qui était contigu et cette partie comprenait la totalité du cours du fleuve Var. Le département du Var a perdu son cours d’eau mais a gardé son nom. Par ailleurs, certains départements qui comportaient un nom dévalorisant aux yeux de leur population changèrent d’appellation : Seine-Inférieure qui devint Seine-Maritime, de même pour la Loire-Inférieure qui devint Loire-Atlantique, pour les Basses-Alpes qui devinrent Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, pour les Basses- Pyrénées qui devinrent Pyrénées-Atlantiques, etc. Pour les départements qualifiés de « Haut de quelque chose » : Haute-Saône, Hautes-Pyrénées, Haute-Garonne, etc.
