Since , Brittany was re-established as a Sovereign Duchy with somewhat definite borders, administered by Dukes of Breton houses from to , before falling into the sphere of influence of the Plantagenets and then the Capets. Saint-Brieuc Main article: Duchy of Brittany. In the camp was closed and the French military decided to incorporate the remaining 19, Breton soldiers into the 2nd Army of the Loire. In Vannes , there was an unfavorable attitude towards the Revolution with only of the city's population of 12, accepting the new constitution. Prieur sought to implement the authority of the Convention by arresting suspected counter-revolutionaries, removing the local authorities of Brittany, and making speeches. The rulers of Domnonia such as Conomor sought to expand their territory including holdings in British Devon and Cornwall , claiming overlordship over all Bretons, though there was constant tension between local lords. It is therefore a strategic choice as a case study of some of the processes associated with the emergence of mass tourism, and the effects of this kind of tourism development on local populations. The first unified Duchy of Brittany was founded by Nominoe. This book was the world's first trilingual dictionary, the first Breton dictionary and also the first French dictionary. However, he provides less extensive access to how ordinary Breton inhabitants participated in the making of Breton tourism. And herein lies the central dilemma that Young explores in this impressive, deeply researched study of the development of regional tourism in Brittany.

The thesis explores the importance of these events for queens as both a personal and public experience, and questions the existence of distinctly Western and Eastern styles of queenship. A comparative study of ‘Eastern’ and ‘Western’ ceremony in the sixteenth century has never been attempted before and sixteenth- century Polish queens usually do not appear in any collective works about queenship, even those which claim to have a pan-European focus.

Textual and Iconographical Ambivalence in the Late Medieval Representation of Women
Textual and Iconographical Ambivalence in the Late Medieval Representation of Women CYNTHIA J. BROWN Department of French and Italian, University of California, Santa Barbara In December 1491 Margaret of Austria, betrothed to Charles VIII from a young age and raised at the French Court, was abruptly displaced by Anne of Brittany, who, as a result of political machinations, unexpectedly married the French king. This manoeuvre, which exacerbated already-existing hostilities between France and the Austro-Burgundian dynasty, set the stage for a bitter, if distant, rivalry between two of the most important women of rank in Continental Europe during the late medieval period. 1 Although adversaries on the political stage and even in the literary arena, as evidenced by competition between their respective courts for the writer Jean Lemaire de Beiges,2 a striking number of similarities bound Anne of Brittany and Margaret of Austria, whose political and cultural achievements set an impres sive benchmark by which to measure the status of female authority at the dawn of the Renaissance. Each was twice a foreign bride with no surviving male children; each outlived at least one husband and benefited from the independence that widowhood afforded medieval women. Although traditional political pawns during their early years, when the men who ruled their lives were constantly reshaping European alliances, Anne and Margaret gained prom inence as autonomous female rulers: Anne controlled Brittany 1 This antipathy eventually ended up in a showdown over the future of much of Europe when Margaret's nephew, Charles V, whom she herself had raised following her brother's death, was elected Emperor in 1519 over Francis I, king of France and husband of Anne's daughter, Claude.
