Abstract:
A small, anonymous grisaille(Figure 1)from the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris is among the more familiar images of seventeenth-century French theatre history. It depicts Cardinal Richelieu, Louis XIII, and other members of the royal family at the theatre. The setting for the scene is the Grande Salle of Richelieu's Parisian home, the Palais Cardinal. Designed by the palace architect Jacques Lemercier and completed in 1641, this theatre was among the first purpose-built proscenium theatres in France. In the 1660s it became the site of the public performances of Molière's most successful plays; after the playwright's death, it housed the Paris Opéra until a fire destroyed it in 1763.

Abstract:
La politique mise en œuvre par Richelieu à l'égard du duché de Lorraine dès 1624 répond à deux préoccupations qui demeurent constantes jusqu'en 1642 : empêcher l'invasion du royaume de France par sa frontière est ; se ménager un accès sur le Rhin pour pouvoir intervenir militairement dans le Saint-Empire romain gernamique. Les rapports entretenus par Louis XIII et le duc Charles IV s'inscrivent d'abord dans le conflit opposant le souverain Bourbon à la famille de Habsbourg, à la fois à la branche d'Autriche et à la branche d'Espagne. Les duchés de Lorraine et de Bar, tout autant que les Trois Evêchés de Metz, Toul et Verdun, se situent au cœur de la lutte engagée par le roi de France et son principal ministre contre l'hégémonie de l'empereur Ferdinand II et du roi Philippe IV en Europe. Les principautés lorraines, avec leurs multiples composantes, constituent également une zone géographique essentielle dans la guerre de Trente ans. Leur valeur stratégique leur est conférée par le passage obligé qu'elles représentent pour les troupes engagées dans le conflit. Tout au long de son ministère, Richelieu tente de sécuriser la Lorraine, en imposant à Charles IV l'autorité française, militaire, politique et administrative. Le roi de France entre en lutte armée contre le duc de Lorraine et soumet ses Etats à la tutelle du parlement de Metz, du conseil souverain de Nancy, des bailliages et intendants français. Il s'oppose fortement au rapprochement dynastique opéré par le duc d'Orléans, héritier du trône de France jusqu'en 1638, avec la princesse Marguerite de Lorraine. Louis XIII et Richelieu engagent, dans la lignée du XVIe siècle, d'importants débats et études idéologiques et historiographiques visant à établir la souveraineté française en Lorraine et à en prouver la légitimité. Mais si les traités de Westphalie rattachent définitivement les Trois Evêchés à la France, les duchés de Lorraine et de Bar demeurent eux indépendants jusqu'au XVIIIe siècle.

Abstract:
Le magnifique château construit par le cardinal de Richelieu (1585-1642) aux confins de l’Anjou, le Poitou et la Touraine n'existe plus; les trésors qui l'ornaient disparus. Cette thèse étudie, à partir des documents inédits, l'histoire des peintures au château de Richelieu: la formation de la collection au début du dix-septième siècle, l'aménagement des appartements au temps du cardinal, les changements faits par le duc au dix-huitième, la dispersion de la collection à la Révolution et l'entrée de certains chef-d’œuvre dans les collections nationales (musées du Louvre, de Versailles, de Tours, d'Orléans) et dans des collections privées en France et a l'étranger. La thèse présente aussi des documents inédits tels qu'un plan --le seul actuellement connu--du premier étage du château, et une description rare, car datée de 1637 et donc antérieur à la mort du cardinal, découverte à la Bodleian Library (Oxford), décrivant le château. Au terme des travaux, il est possible de présenter soixante-dix tableaux, dont une vingtaine inédits, qui existaient vraisemblablement au château au dix-septième siècle. Certains sont d'une même main, celle, à mon avis, de Nicolas Prévost, un peintre pratiquement ignoré aujourd'hui et dont on sait qu'il prit une part éminente à la décoration du château pendant près de dix ans. La thèse liste aussi les tableaux --de Raphaël, Titien, Dürer, Rubens, van Dyck parmi d'autres--disparus, et ceux attribués à tort à la collection du cardinal
The great castle built by cardinal Richelieu (1585-1642) in Poitou no longer exists; the treasures once housed there have been dispersed. This thesis, based on unpublished documents, traces the history of the painting collection in Richelieu’s castle: its formation at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the decoration of the great rooms in Richelieu’s time, the changes made by the duke in the eighteenth century, the dispersion of the collection during the revolution and the arrival of certain masterpieces in the French national collections (the Louvre, Versailles, the Tours and Orleans museums) and in private collections, both inside and outside France. This dissertation also presents numerous unpublished documents such as the only known plan of the castle's main floor (where the bulk of the collection was housed), a rare visitor's description discovered at the Bodleian library (Oxford), which is dated 1637 and thus describes the collection during the cardinal's lifetime. In all, it is possible to catalog 70 paintings (20 here published for the first time), which in all likelihood adorned the castle in the seventeenth century. Several are by the same artist; in my opinion, Nicolas Prevost, a little-known painter today, but who played an eminent role in the decoration of the castle for nearly ten years. The thesis also lists lost paintings by Raphael, Titian, van Dyck, Rubens, Dürer, among others, and those erroneously attributed to Richelieu’s

Abstract:
La légende de Richelieu permet d'appréhender ce personnage comme un rôle historique instrumentalisé. Après Mazarin, les polémiques s'estompent, tandis que s'affirment une historiographie cardinalice et une anti-mémoire nobiliaire. De 1688 à la Révolution, si l'héritage de Richelieu est âprement discuté par les historiens, le débat prend plutôt la forme de querelles d'érudits. La Révolution est une rupture, puisque le Cardinal en est considéré comme un précurseur, au XIXe siècle, qui voit s'épanouir une littérature foisonnante, laquelle relaie des débats historiographiques heurtés. L' après-1870 change les données en promouvant Richelieu comme artisan des frontières naturelles et de la colonisation. Tandis que le cinéma pérennise le legs littéraire, 1 'héritage est recomposé autour du principe patriotique. Mais ce rôle historique est plus cathartique que consensuel: Richelieu est un ange de discorde qui nivelle tout et indique le chemin douloureux conduisant à la France contemporaine

Abstract:
Louis XIII's reign has long garnered historians' and popular interest. The king of Cardinal Richelieu and the three musketeers, Louis is traditionally viewed as having presided over the development of the French state and facilitated the rise of absolutism. Yet his court has received comparatively little attention. Traditionally understood as the reflection of its master, Louis XIII's court has been assumed to be backwards and inconsequential. On the contrary, this thesis contends that Louis's court experienced substantial institutional development and expansion over the course of his rule. Neither Louis nor Richelieu was the principal instigator of this growth. The main drivers were the courtiers themselves who sought to expand their prerogatives and to find new ways of profiting from their offices. The changes that were initiated from the top down were not determined by a broad, sweeping agenda held by Louis or his minister-favourites but rather by immediate needs and contingencies. Cardinal Richelieu, nonetheless, recognised that Louis's court really mattered for high politics in this period: the royal households produced key players for the governance of the realm, either gravitating from court office to broader governmental office, or holding both simultaneously. Furthermore, Louis's court helped to bind the realm together, not just because it acted as a hub attracting people from the provinces but also because of the time it spent in the provinces. Richelieu, however, struggled to control this court — so vital to the direction of the French monarchy in this period — because its members were so active and vibrant. They shaped the cultural and social environment surrounding and associated with the court because they were heavily invested in the court as an institution. Indeed, the court did not only serve the needs of the monarch: courts could only operate because a large group of people had a stake in ensuring that they functioned. By establishing the importance of Louis XIII's court for the direction of the French monarchy, and his courtiers' role in moulding it, this thesis seeks to throw light on humans' fundamental relationship with power.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse étudie les différents aspects de la diplomatie française en Italie, pendant la période française de la guerre de Trente ans, puis pendant la guerre franco-espagnole (1635-1659). Les gouvernements de Richelieu et de Mazarin accordent une grande attention aux événements et enjeux péninsulaires. L'Italie n’est pas alors vue comme un ensemble d’Etats disparates, mais comme le lieu d’une unique géopolitique coordonnée. La première partie de ce travail s’attache à suivre les vicissitudes militaires et politiques de la présence française en Italie. La guerre contre l’Espagne et la construction de nouvelles alliances diplomatiques représentent la préoccupation constante des agents français ; des crises italiennes viennent surajouter leurs propres logiques aux enjeux européens du conflit entre les deux Couronnes. La guerre civile piémontaise, la guerre de Castro, la révolte de Naples représentent des épisodes majeurs dans lesquels les Français interviennent, malgré les réticences des princes italiens. Dans une seconde partie, les pratiques de la négociation sont étudiées. Le rôle de l’écrit et de la langue diplomatique, les difficultés à faire transiter les objets matériels que sont les dépêches d’une cour à l’autre sont évoqués. Les réseaux de parenté et de clientèle dans lesquels se trouvent impliqués les diplomates apparaissent comme des clefs de lecture intéressantes pour décrire les carrières des individus négociateurs. Loin d’intéresser un tout petit cercle de personnes, la diplomatie implique des personnages divers mais nombreux au sein des cours italiennes et française : les informations transitent, de même que les pensions et autres gratifications. Enfin, les princes italiens et leurs maisons sont étudiés. Entre les promesses et les menaces formulées par les couronnes, leurs choix sont dictés par des facteurs complexes et variables
This doctoral thesis studies France’s diplomacy in Italy between 1635 and 1659, that is, during the French period of the Thirty Years war and the Franco-Spanish war. The governments of Richelieu and Mazarin survey the peninsular events and ventures with great attention. Italy is not seen as an ensemble of separate states, but as a single geopolitical entity. The first part of this work follows the military and political vicissitudes of the French presence in Italy. The war against Spain and the shaping of new diplomatic alliances in Italy are the constant source of preoccupation for the French representatives in the peninsula. In this context, however, several Italian crises come to add their own logic to the endeavours of the two opposing Crowns. The civil war in Piedmont, the war of Castro and the revolt of Naples are major episodes in which the French interfere notwithstanding the reluctance of the Italian princes. In the second part, the general practices used in the negotiations of the time are considered. The status of written messages, the characteristics of the diplomatic language and the difficulties sending letters from one court to another are brought up. The family links and clientele relations in which the diplomats are engaged form an essential element to the understanding of the careers of the individual negotiators. Far from concerning only a small circle of persons, diplomacy involves a number of different types of personage in both the French and Italian courts: information flow must be guaranteed as well as the payment of pensions and other remunerations. Finally, the Italian princes and their Houses are also studied. Between the promises and threats by the Crowns, the princes’ choices are made in function of a complex and variable set of factors

Full text
Abstract:
Lorsque vint le temps de la disgrâce, après une carrière bien remplie mais qui fut interrompue en plein épanouissement au lendemain de la journée des Dupes, le maréchal de Bassompierre (1579-1646) se tourna vers l'écriture de ses Mémoires, troquant l'épée pour la plume comme autre versant de l'action politique. Cet acte ne constituait pas uniquement un moyen de revivre son passé mais s'inscrivait dans un projet de réhabilitation et de glorification de soi face à Louis XIII et Richelieu qui, selon lui, n'avaient pas reconnu ses mérites à leur juste valeur. Tout l'objet de cette thèse est ainsi d'apprécier l'imaginaire nobiliaire qui se dégage de ce texte à travers le double prisme de la faveur du roi - les moyens de sa captation, les stratégies de sa préservation et les modalités de sa perte - et de la gloire, que l'honneur et le service du souverain permettent d’acquérir. Véritable manuel à visée à la fois domestique et publique dans lesquels Bassompierre se donne en modèle, les Mémoires présentent l'histoire d'un homme qui s'est donné à Henri IV (1598-1610), a servi fidèlement Marie de Médicis (1610-1617) puis s'est heurté à l'incompréhension des pratiques politiques de Louis XIII (1617-1631). Ils signent la mort du héros en même temps qu'ils révèlent, dans leur fabrication, l'esthétique de l'honnête homme que leur auteur se plaisait à être
When he fell into disfavour after a fulfilling career that was brought to a premature end when it was at its peak because of the "Day of the Dupes", Marshal de Bassompierre turned to writing his memoirs, exchanging his sword for a quill, as a new facet of his political action. This undertaking was not merely a means of living through his past again, but was part and parcel of a project of rehabilitation and self-praise for the benefit of Louis XIII and Richelieu who, according to him, had not properly acknowledged his worth. Thus, the subject matter of this thesis is to analyze his conception of nobility, which emerges in this text through the double prism of the king's favour - the means to obtain it, the strategies employed to preserve it and the conditions of its loss - and of the glory obtained through honour and service to the sovereign. The Memoirs are a real handbook with both a domestic and public purpose, in which Bassompierre figures as a model : they tell the story of a man who devoted himself to Henry IV (1598 -1610), faithfully served Mary de Medici (1610 -1617), then came up against Louis XIII (1617 -1631) and his political practices which he did not understand. The Memoirs illustrate the death of the Hero while they reveal, through their making, the ideal of the honnête homme their author prided himself on being

Abstract:
La définition des utilités du théâtre prélude constamment, dans les récits de poétique du premier XVIIe siècle français, à l'explicitation des conventions propres aux différents genres de la poésie dramatique. Le théâtre est ainsi défini au travers de ses fonctions dans la vie sociale et politique. Cette enquête s'interroge sur les origines et les enjeux historiques d'une telle conception de la politique du théâtre. Elle montre dans un premier temps comment les textes de poétique produits dans l'entourage du Cardinal de Richelieu, mais aussi les nouvelles formes prises par le théâtre de cour ou encore les tentatives de légiférer sur le statut juridique des comédiens participent d'une tentative de rationalisation politique de la pratique du théâtre. Elle s'attache ensuite à examiner les mises en oeuvre des différentes utilités alors attribuées au théâtre. .
In the critical writings on theater produced in seventeenth century France, the definition of the social and political functions of theater constantly prefaces the description of the theatrical means through which these ends could be met. Theater is thus defined first and foremost through its social and political instrumentality. This study investigates the origins and historical significance of such a conception of theater. It first underlines that Cardinal Richelieu's encouragement of the production of theoretical writings on theater, but also his efforts to produce a new court theater and his attempt to create new regulations concerning the legal status of professional comedians can all be undestood as endeavors to achieve a political rationalization of the practice of theater. This study then proceeds to examine if and how the different functions then assigned to theater where effectively achieved. .

Abstract:
The first part of this chapter deals with the founding of the Académie française. It argues against the traditional image of this institution as Richelieu’s creation and as the embodiment of “cultural absolutism,” instead strenuously asserting that it was more a matter of a movement already afoot among a generation of writers, which Richelieu then co-opted. The second part of the chapter presents a “gallery” of writers and their relationship with Richelieu: some were intimates, some served him with their erudition, some offered him panegyric texts, some served his interests while challenging orthodox thinking, some resisted his vehement efforts to secure their services. In almost every case, these writers and intellectuals brought their own perspectives and interests to the position, suggesting that in some respects, they were using the cardinal as much as he was using them.

Abstract:
Catholic bishops have captured the imagination of novelists, who have fashioned them into unforgettable, larger-than-life characters. These include the saintly Bishop Myriel of Les Misérables, the treacherous Cardinal Richelieu of The Three Musketeers, the quietly perseverant Bishop Latour of Death Comes for the Archbishop, and the scheming Bishop Angri of the popular The Da Vinci Code. These portrayals are caricatures, but they probably reflect a real historical tendency for people, lay Catholics included, to view the bishops on a simplistic spectrum that ranges from haloed hero to biretta’d bad guy. This introductory book chapter provides an overview of Roman Catholic bishops and their responsibilities. The chapter discusses the three primary roles of bishops, defined by Church documents as “sanctifying, governing, and teaching.” Types of bishops are distinguished (auxiliaries, ordinaries, and cardinals) as well as their differing positions within the Church hierarchy. The chapter summarizes the secretive process by which priests are chosen by the pope to become bishops. It also explains the symbols of their ministry (e.g., mitre, crozier, and cathedra).
