PROLOGUE August 1634 Magdeburg United States of Europe Don Francisco Nasi, spymaster for the United States of Europe, pushed his glasses up his nose. "Michel Ducos moved on quickly, even before Peter Appel notified the Frankfurt authorities. He'd been gone a couple of days before they got the news to me. We can't just move in and arrest his lieutenant Guillaume Locquifier. Partly because then we'd lose the trail, but jurisdictionally because the crime didn't happen on USE soil and we don't have an 'arrest on sight and extradite' from the Papal States. It's better just to keep Locquifier under surveillance. Frankfurt says that he isn't doing anything active right now—just huddling in the back parlor of an inn with a few other men." Ed Piazza scowled. Once a high school principal in Grantville, he was now the president of the State of Thuringia-Franconia. The SoTF, whose capital was Grantville, was one of the largest and most populous provinces of the United States of Europe. Ed was in Magdeburg for a few days consulting with Mike Stearns, the Prime Minister of the USE. "It's your call, I guess. Personally, I'd be happier if they were in jail, considering that mess at the Galileo hearing." Sitting behind his desk not far away, Mike Stearns shrugged. "Mazarini cleaned up the mess around the assassination attempt on the pope very efficiently. Politically speaking, I mean—he didn't wash the blood off the floor of the church or dig the bullets out of the plaster himself, of course. Frank, Ron and Gerry Stone were all in big trouble right after the assassination attempt and things could have turned out a lot worse if he hadn't put in the fix." Page 4 "Nevertheless," said Nasi, "once they realized that Ducos was not really a member of the Committees of Correspondence, but had been using them for his own purposes, the Stone boys acted decisively. The assassination might very well have succeeded had it not been for them. Therefore they interest me." "Tom Stone told me that his son Frank and his new wife Giovanna are staying in Venice," added Mike. "Frank's going to keep working with the Committee of Correspondence there. Maybe try to develop some in other places in Italy. In the Italies , I should say. It's as bad as 'the Germanies.' A patchwork of little duchies and principalities, the Papal States in the middle and the Spanish in the south in Naples." Piazza shook his head. "Where's Garibaldi when we need him?" "Not born yet. Never will be, in this universe," Nasi said practically. "Tom and Magda are staying in Italy, too. His lectures at the Padua medical school are really catching on, and she's done very well negotiating the purchase of a lot of things we need for industrial development in the USE. But Tom's other two sons, Ron and Gerry, are coming back to Grantville when Simon Jones does. They're traveling with him and with the mother of Jabe McDougal's girlfriend. The painter. Artemisia Gentileschi. The mother, I mean—not the girlfriend." Nasi smiled and looked at Ed. "I would appreciate an opportunity to speak with Signora Gentileschi, should one arise. She has been living in Naples, working for the Spanish. Her father is in England. She has ties to both the Barberini and the Tuscan court in Florence. Let me know when they get to Grantville. If she isn't coming to Magdeburg, I believe such a conversation would be worth my while, even if I need to make the trip to Grantville to have it. Jabe goes back and forth, I believe." "Will do. I'll radio you as soon as she shows up. What about the boys?" "How old are they, exactly?" "Ron graduated from high school in 1633 on the accelerated program, right before they all left for Venice. He'd turned seventeen in December, so that would make him eighteen, now. Eighteen and a half. Gerry . ." Piazza stopped and thought a minute. "He should be turning sixteen this month. Gus Heinzerling was supposed to be tutoring him while they were in Venice, so he didn't fall behind. But I'm told that he's not coming back to high school in Grantville. He's decided to finish up at the boys' school in Rudolstadt. I'm not sure why. But if they're willing to admit him over there, it means that Gus really did keep his nose to the grindstone, at least as far as Latin was concerned." "Too young for my work, and he will be too busy. Gerry, that is," Nasi said. "Would the older one have anything to contribute?" "You can debrief him, of course. If he's willing to talk to you. He's a legal adult, so he can make his own decision on that. Tom Stone's always been a little . anti-authoritarian. More than a little. Magda's a straight arrow, though, and she has that incredible Lutheran sense of duty. Well, she grew up in Jena, with all those theology professors in the town. She's been their stepmother for close to three years now, and they like her. So maybe . I can't make any promises on his behalf." Nasi dug into his briefcase and drew out a sheaf of papers. "He submitted a written report to me. Voluntarily, sent in the diplomatic pouch from Venice. Detailing all of their contacts with Michel Ducos while he was posing as a member of the Venice Committee of Correspondence. It's retrospective, of course. Written with all the benefits of hindsight. He does not spare himself or his brothers. Perhaps, he is Page 5 even too harsh in his judgment of them. We sent them out with very little training and with no expectation that they would encounter the developments that occurred. Bedmar, d'Avaux, Ducos. The boys were, as your baseball commentators would say, 'way out of their league.' But, the self-condemnation aside, his analysis of what happened is certainly competent. More than competent." "Tom and Magda seem to agree with you," said Mike. "On the competence issue, that is. Karl Juergen Edelman will stay available for consultation—Magda's father has a keenly honed sense about the importance of following the money—but he has his own businesses to run and he's tired of being on the train between Jena and Grantville every week and sometimes twice a week. So Ron's going to be managing Lothlorien for them when he gets back. Not just the Farbenwerke , but the pharmaceuticals end of it, too." Piazza nodded. "I'll keep an eye on him." Padua "Signora Gentileschi and her daughter arrived from Rome last night," the doorman reported. "They send a message that they are prepared to leave for Grantville as soon as the rest of you can pack up.

Publisher: Baen Books, February 2000. Publication Date: 2000. Binding: Hardcover. Book Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Signed: Signed by author. Edition: First Edition, Second Printing. About this title. When part of West Virginia is transported to 1632 East Germany during the Thirty Year's War, the new citizens repel marauding mercenaries, house German refugees, determine citizenship, and establish relationships and identities. From the Back Cover: FREEDOM AND JUSTICE -- AMERICAN STYLE. 1632 And in northern Germany things couldn't get much worse. Famine. Disease. Religious war laying waste the cities. Only the aristocrats remained relatively unscathed; for the peasants, death was a mercy. 2000 Things are going OK in Grantville, West Virginia, and everybody attending the wedding of Mike Stearn's sister (including the entire local chapter of the United Mine Workers of America, which Mike leads) is having a good time. THEN, EVERYTHING CHANGED. When the dust settles, Mike leads a group of armed miners to find out what happened and finds the road into town is cut, as with a sword. On the other side, a scene out of Hell: a man nailed to a farmhouse door, his wife and daughter attacked by men in steel vests. Faced with this, Mike and his friends don't have to ask who to shoot. At that moment Freedom and Justice, American style, are introduced to the middle of the Thirty Years' War.

En del av släkten var dock möjligen lokal lantadel; om det råder delade meningar i forskningen. I Frankrike hette släkten d´Escouperie och den förste kände stamfadern var Robert d´Escouperie (levde omkr. 1387), som uppges ha ägt gårdarna Château Russol och La Gardie i departementet Aude. Släktens svenska gren härstammar från köpmannen Jacques Scoperier (†1565) i staden Caunes nära Carcassonne i södra Frankrike. Hans son Ponce d´Escouperie invandrade till Sverige 1565 och antog namnet Pontus De la Gardie efter en av släktens gårdar i Languedoc. I sitt äktenskap med en illegitim dotter till Johan III blev han far till riksmarsken Jakob de la Gardie som "upphöjdes i grefligt stånd" 10 maj 1615 och introducerades 1625 på Sveriges Riddarhus med nr 3 bland grevar. Denna gren finns fortfarande. I Sverige fanns en gren som 1571 fick friherrelig värdighet men som utslocknade 1640. Samtliga ättemedlemmar, bortsett från stamfadern Pontus, härstammar via hans fru Sofia Johansdotter från hennes far, Johan III. Nuvarande (2007) huvudman för ätten De la Gardie är greve Carl Gustaf De la Gardie, f.1946 och bosatt i Linköping.

Handledare Henrik Widmark! Ventileringstermin: Höstterm. (år) Vårterm. (år) Sommartermin (år) 2021 Innehåll: This essay is a study of a suite of six small-scale equestrian portraits in the Skokloster Castle Collection. The suite represents aristocratic women at the court of Louis XIV. In the portraits, the equestriennes and their horses performe advanced dressage movements. In the 17th Century the advanced dressage riding, performed in l’art du manège, was a masculine sphere. The equestrian portraits in the Skokloster suite therefore evoke questions regarding early modern female horse- and riding culture. How do we read these equestrian portraits today? In the analysis I focus on what the horses and riders do. I discuss La Querelle des femmes and how earlymodern French elite women would search for a new female role.

    Östra Ryds kyrka © Österåker-Östra Ryds församling. Text: Leif Törnquist. Foto: Eric Roxfelt, Alf Ekman, Jonas Henningsson och Maria Schrewelius. Layout och original: Maria Schrewelius. Tryck: Billes tryckeri, Mölndal 2010. Östra Ryds kyrka Namnet Ryd som betyder röjd mark möter oss första gången på en runsten rest någon gång under 1000-talet. Stenen står strax norr om avtagsvägen till Östra Ryds kyrka. Trakten har emellertid varit bebyggd sedan järnåldern. Som namn på socknen är Ryd dokumenterat 1298. Den första stenkyrkan började troligen byggas vid samma tid. Den bör ha tagits i bruk senast 1303 då ärkebiskopen besökte kyrkan i samband med en visitationsresa. Östra Ryds kyrka ligger på mark som under medeltiden tillhörde Rydbo- holms gods. Det är därför sannolikt att kyrkan byggdes på enskilt initiativ, en så kallad stormannakyrka. Den var också patronatskyrka, vilket innebar att godsherren hade stort inflytande och ansvar när det gällde att tillsätta prästerna men också för underhållet av kyrkan. Kyrkan ligger i dag omkring en kilometer nordost om Rydboholms slott. En lång vacker allé förbinder kyrkan med slottet. Den ursprungliga gården låg troligen väster om kyrkan och betydligt närmare, ett läge som känne- tecknade en gårdskyrka. Under 1400-talet härskade medlemmar av Stureätten på Rydboholm. Genom arv och äktenskap övergick godset först till medlemmar av ätten Vasa. Gustav Vasa tillbringade en del av sin barndomstid på Rydboholm som senare ärvdes av hans syster Margareta. Hennes son Per Brahe d.ä. 1 ärvde sedan godset. Han erhöll 1545 även hela Ryds skeppslag inklusive Ryds socken i förläning. Rydboholm kom därefter att tillhöra Braheätten till 1930.
