  • ROYAL AUTHORITY in SEVENTEENTH CENTURY FRANCE by KENT WARREN JONES, B.A
    A DELICATE BALANCE: ROYAL AUTHORITY IN SEVENTEENTH CENTURY FRANCE by KENT WARREN JONES, B.A. A THESIS IN HISTORY Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS Approved Accepted May, 1992 TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTION . 1 II. INSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY. 7 III. PATRONAGE AND POWER. 69 IV. J.-B. BOSSUET AND THE "ABSOLUTE" MONARCHY. 100 BIBLIOGRAPHY . 112 ii CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION French royal absolutism is an insidious historical myth. Insidious because it is so seductive, a myth because it is a generalization propagated by historians too ready to believe Louis XIV's propagandists. Part of the reason for the creation and survival of this myth is its role in providing a convenient starting point for studying the French Revolution. The tale of absolutism in France prospered during the nineteenth century because it fit well with the pro-republican and anti-monarchical political values of many of that era's historians.1 By the twentieth century, the Sun King's absolutism was a firmly entrenched part of the historical orthodoxy. This alone ensured that historians in the first half of the century continued to discuss the seventeenth-century French state within the context of absolutism. More importantly, the absolutist model survived because it was a product of traditional history. History was written, as it had always been, primarily as the story of great men and their institutions. When a Georges Pages or Gaston Zeller wrote about seventeenth-century France, they almost inevitably described an absolutist state, using abundant archival evidence of lparticularly in the works of the Romantic historians, for example, Jules Michelet in History of the French Revolution (1847-53).

  • Antoine Vallot and the Broader Identity of the Premier Médecin Du Roi in Louis XIV’S Reign
    Beyond the Sun King’s bedside: Antoine Vallot and the broader identity of the premier médecin du roi in Louis XIV’s reign PhD Thesis submitted by Natalie Hawkes School of History, Classics and Archaeology: Newcastle University August 2014 Illustration 1: Antoine Vallot. Undated engraving by Jean Grignon. Image courtesy of the Wellcome Library, London. i Abstract Antoine Vallot worked as premier médecin du roi (Chief Physician to the King) to Louis XIV of France from 1652 to 1671. In this position, he participated in some of the most important political and medical developments in early modern France. Yet without a single substantial biography to his name, he remains the least studied of the three successive premiers médecins who cared for Louis XIV during his personal reign. This thesis attempts to rectify this disparity, but not through the means of a traditional biography. Instead, it aims to shed greater light upon Vallot’s career as premier médecin, and his place in the world around him in this role, through an exploration of his interactions with contemporaries. The royal court of France, and the kingdom’s wider medical profession, provide the two main backdrops for this investigation. The relationships which Vallot sustained within these two environments are explored with the help of a broad range of source material, including personal correspondence, archival records from the king’s household and Vallot’s medical record for Louis XIV. Within the source material relating to the royal court, a picture emerges of an extremely prolific physician whose professional popularity contrasted with a distinct lack of social significance.

    CHILDREN OF THE REVOCATION: THE REEDUCATION OF FRENCH PROTESTANTS AFTER 1685 By ELIZABETH ANN CHURCHICH A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School – New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in History under the direction of Dr. Jennifer Jones and approved by ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Children of the Revocation: The Reeducation of French Protestants after 1685 by ELIZABETH ANN CHURCHICH Dissertation Director: Jennifer M. Jones, Ph.D. This dissertation examines the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in late seventeenth-century France and its connections to the absolutist monarchy of Louis XIV and the shifting educational ideals of the period. Focusing on the detailed implementation of the edict in Paris, it discusses the importance of the development of a new bureaucratic structure that allowed Louis XIV to remain relatively involved in the details of implementation, while entrusting the daily operations to individuals loyal to the crown. Placing the Revocation in the context of administrative expansion, growing central control, and idealized Christian kingship, Louis XIV’s decision to end toleration of Protestantism in France becomes clearer. It also argues that education and social reform were central in the conception and execution of this edict, and that the Revocation was part of a moment in which conversion through education appeared possible. In combining religious conversion and education in an effort to form Protestants into French Catholics, Louis XIV built upon an absolutist vision of education and connected his efforts to a flourishing debate.

  • From Lorient to Louisiana on a French Atlantic Circuit Dissertation Presented in Partial Fu
    Company Towns and Tropical Baptisms: From Lorient to Louisiana on a French Atlantic Circuit Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Erin Michelle Greenwald, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Alan Gallay, Advisor Kenneth J. Andrien John Brooke Copyright by Erin Michelle Greenwald 2011 Abstract In 1729 the French Company of the Indies (Compagnie des Indes) operated more than two dozen coastal and riverine comptoirs, or trade outposts, along waterways stretching from the upper Mississippi Valley to the West African coast to the Bay of Bengal in Southeast Asia. The Company, administered by an assembly of Paris-centered directors, shareholders, and syndics, stood on the verge of initiating self-directed changes that would simultaneously diminish its functional and geographic scope and place it on firm financial footing for the first time since its mid-seventeenth-century inception. For unlike the Dutch and English monopoly companies, the French Company of the Indies prior to 1731 did not restrict its mission to trade alone; nor did the Company limit its operational sphere to the East Indies. Instead the Company spread its ships, bureaucrats, soldiers, laborers, and cargoes across the Atlantic and Indian oceans. In Louisiana during the second decade of the eighteenth century, the Company made a last unsuccessful bid in its quest to extract wealth from company-directed agricultural endeavors. As the Company‘s focus shifted away from agriculture with the retrocession of the colony to the king in 1731, so too did the life courses of individuals whose fortunes were bound up in the Company‘s trade, colonization, and agricultural mission in the Americas.

  • Secrecy and Transparency in Eighteenth- Century France
    IN THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS: SECRECY AND TRANSPARENCY IN EIGHTEENTH- CENTURY FRANCE Nicole Bauer A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Jay M. Smith Lloyd Kramer William Reddy Donald Reid Ellen Welch © 2018 Nicole Bauer ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Nicole Bauer: In the Kingdom of Shadows: Secrecy and Transparency in Eighteenth-century France (Under the direction of Jay M. Smith) This dissertation explores how the idea of secrecy took on a radically new meaning in the eighteenth century. The government and elites had long been seen as possessors of secrets, but what emerged in the eighteenth century was the idea that elites kept secrets illegitimately. By the eve of the French Revolution, writers voicing concerns about corruption saw secrecy as part and parcel of despotism, and this shift went hand in hand with the rise of the idea of government transparency. At century’s end, transparency had come to be seen as the cure-all for social ills. The emergence of the idea of transparency as a desired quality in a regime, however, was not inevitable or predetermined; it was not simply a development characteristic of what scholars like to call modernity. Rather, the emphasis placed on government transparency, especially the mania for transparency that we see in eighteenth-century France, was a result of a convergence of several factors. Rising nationalism and worries about hidden influences helped the Jansenists, a French Catholic sect with a Manichaean worldview, heap suspicion onto the Jesuits, a religious order loyal to the pope in Rome that was often portrayed as secretive and steeped in intrigue.

  • Royal Spectacle: Ceremonial and Festivities at the Court of France
    Royal Spectacle: Ceremonial and Festivities at the Court of France 27 March – 27 October 2014 Rachel Jacobs and Selma Schwartz, Curators This exhibition marks the publication of the Books and Bindings catalogue, highlighting illustrated books published on the occasion of court festivities, celebrations and spectacles. Lavishly illustrated books, with engravings of the largest format, document the many extravagant festivities and ceremonies staged for the French court during the 17th and 18th centuries to mark the life cycle of births, marriages and deaths. Fanciful theatrical stage settings are the backdrop for richly costumed processions, equestrian tournaments, theatre performances, church ceremonies and spectacular firework displays. The books themselves are often bound in exquisite bindings intended for the royal family and aristocracy. While focusing on France, the exhibition also includes some comparative material from other European courts. © Waddesdon Royal Spectacle 1 Royal Spectacle: Ceremonial and Festivities at the Court of France Ceremonial and Festivities at the Court of France: the Department of ‘Small Pleasures’ spectacle (noun): a visually striking performance or display, from the Latin spectaculum meaning public show spectacular (adjective): beautiful in a dramatic and eye-catching way Splendid ceremonies marking key moments in the lives of the royal family were truly spectacular, whether as entertainment or part of the formal arrangements and an opportunity to showcase the glory and power of the king. Many ceremonies were codified during the long reign of Louis XIV (1638-1715) thanks to a need to establish the legitimacy of the Bourbon line and his power to rule absolutely, following the civil wars between 1648 and 1653, known as the Fronde.
