Abstract:
Cette étude vise à analyser les défis et les enjeux entourant la création d’une activité citoyenne à l’intérieur du Carnaval de Québec, la « Revengeance » des duchesses, destinée à assurer une réappropriation par les résidents de cette fête jugée par beaucoup trop touristique. Née dans ce contexte de questionnement du sens de la fête, et s’inspirant librement de la « tradition » des Duchesses du Carnaval, abandonnée en 1996, la « Revengeance » des duchesses propose de nouvelles activités, non reconnues dans la programmation officielle du Carnaval. Nous nous interrogeons donc sur les processus de réappropriation de la fête par les résidents des quartiers de la ville de Québec et sur les usages du Web 2.0 dans la construction des dynamiques culturelles et identitaires aujourd’hui.

Abstract:
This text publishes five letters relating to the period as a prisoner of war of the Castellan of Ląd, Wociech of Bnin, who was captured by the Teutonic Order in the Battle of Chojnice on 18 September 1454. The first letter, written in Poznań on 27 December 1454, relates to Wojciech’s own request to postpone the date of his return to captivity, which he had been released from on his word of honour as a knight, in connection with the need heal a wound or a blow that he had received in the abovementioned battle. Three subsequent letters are addressed to the Grand Master of the Order, Ludwik von Erlichshausen, all written on the same day (5 February 1455) in Warsaw. They contain the requests of two duchesses of Mazovia (Anna and Barbara) and of prominent magnates from their circle to free Wojciech from captivity in exchange for an unnamed notable of the order, who was then in Polish hands. The final letter, from 4 April 1455, was also written in Warsaw. In it, the Mazovian Duchess Anna once again requests the Grand Master to release Bniński from captivity. Wojciech personally delivered this letter to Malbork on 22 April 1455, and he was most likely released from captivity as a prisoner of war after that date.

Abstract:
Like the earlier issue of the Yearbook, this one also consists of two major parts. The first is devoted to the cultural and intellectual climate of the courts of queens in medieval and modern Europe. At the beginning of the 2000s, comments made in Polish historiography that we know little about the queens and their role in the state, or about their environment, and that the structures of the courts of Polish duchesses and queens remain outside the mainstream of research, were by all means correct. Over the past twenty years, however, the subject of the courts of Polish queens in the Middle Ages and in the modern era has gained a group of scholars who have increasingly went beyond structural and interpersonal studies, and in Polish studies, the current of queenship, which is part of this problem and which has enjoyed a noticeable popularity in Western historiographies, is more and more visible.

AbstractSeveral prophecies of the late fifteenth-century visionary Tecla Servent involved her in the politics of her day. When the Duke of Gandía took a wife, his mother-in-law and later the Duchess herself sent for Tecla and asked her to pray that God bless the marriage with children. In one of her ensuing visions, Tecla saw the Lord place a child among the Duchess's skirts. Inasmuch as the Duchess of Gandía was a cousin of Ferdinand the Catholic and the Duke was the Pope's son, the conception of an heir was of utmost importance to papal-Aragonese relations. Through Tecla's prophecies, the private sphere of the visionary intersected with the public sphere of international politics.

Abstract:
This paper discusses a costume complex from the burial of the Princess Natalya Alexeevna Romanova, the sister of Emperor Peter II. The burial of the young Princess took place in a dynastic necropolis of the Ascension Monastery of the Moscow Kremlin in January 1729, among dozens of tombs of Great Duchesses, Queens And Princesses. Two hundred years later, with the destruction of the monastery, by the efforts of museum and scientific staff, all the sarcophagi of the necropolis moved to the Moscow Kremlin Museums. Here is where their research began as part of a large project “Historical Necropolis” (supervisor T. D. Panova). The costume complex from the burial of Princess Natalya Romanova was studied and restored in 2008–2010 under the highest category restorer in textile and leather N. P. Sinitsyna`s guidance. However, not all the items from the burial have survived to our days — only the princess's dress, her order things, stockings and part of a heavily ruined headdress have been preserved. The other part of the costume complex has been lost for various reasons and at different times (Grand Duke's Mantle, funeral crown, wig, shoes, etc.). This research came as an attempt to present the funeral costume complex in its integrity.

Abstract:
Working within a broad theoretical and disciplinary framework this dissertation explores a range of programmes of cultural and religious enterprise in which Medici women in the late sixteenth to early seventeenth centuries were engaged. I seek to examine the ways in which patronage activities and the wider entrepreneurial, aesthetic and devotional acts of the Florentine grand duchesses of this period worked to position them culturally, spiritually, politically and dynastically. Drawing on existing scholarship in the fields of art and architectural patronage, public festivals and rituals, pilgrimage and collecting practice, I offer new analyses based on empirical research and documentary evidence, which retrieve and assess aspects of the cultural activities of Giovanna of Austria, wife of Francesco de' Medici, grand duke of Tuscany; Cristina of Lorraine, wife of Francesco's successor, Ferdinando I; and Maria Maddalena of Austria, wife of Cosimo II. Where appropriate, these activities are read in relation to those of Maria de' Medici, their relative and queen of France. The project opens with the arrival in Florence in 1565 of Giovanna of Austria, an event celebrated as a triumphal entry. Developing themes of display, spectacle and women's representation in public space, I move on to consider the roles of the later grand duchesses by tracing the activities which made them visible, and exploring how the rituals in which they participated fashioned and projected their identities as brides, mothers, grand duchesses and, eventually, regentesses. I examine the grand duchesses' pilgrimages to Loreto, identifying these as spectacular processional rituals with special spiritual and political resonances. I consider the concealed spaces of female Medicean devotion: the convents which they visited, supported and adapted to their own needs, and Maria Maddalena of Austria's private chapel in Palazzo Pitti in which she preserved a vast collection of valuable relics and reliquaries. Questions on devotional and secular activities, on public and private space, on propagandistic display and religious observance, that link the diverse studies of this dissertation, are addressed in the final chapter in relation to Maria Maddalena's lavish programme of rebuilding and decoration at the suburban palace she bought in the 1620s, the Villa del Poggio Imperiale. This project seeks broadly to draw out, delineate and contextualise the limits and possibilities of Medici women's cultural activities in the period to bring more clearly into focus their social, political and gendered dimensions.

Abstract:
La présente thèse de doctorat trouve son origine dans la singularité de l’histoire de la seconde Maison d’Anjou (1360-1481), qui se caractérise, à chaque génération, par des temps de rupture au cours desquels les femmes se trouvent en charge de la conduite de l’État comme régente, lieutenante ou en tant que vice-régente. Cette dynastie princière française offre un terrain d’observation privilégié pour décrire et expliquer un phénomène, en cours d’élaboration juridique et pratique à la fin du Moyen Âge, celui de l’exercice du pouvoir politique par des souveraines qui n’auraient pas dû gouverner. Grâce au croisement de sources de nature très variée, il s’agit aussi de mesurer les progrès administratifs ou les évolutions institutionnelles de la principauté auxquels participent les duchesses. Ces dernières ont également joué un rôle essentiel dans la construction territoriale de leur État, permettant de donner corps à une histoire commune d’espaces traditionnellement étudiés de façon indépendante : l’Anjou, la Provence, le Barrois, la Lorraine, Naples. L’étude, qui porte sur plus d’un siècle, repose sur une dialectique entre existence individuelle et fortune collective afin d’offrir une cohérence nouvelle aux problématiques liant l’identité et l’action politique féminine. Celle-ci est abordée au travers d’approches multiples (politique, anthropologique, juridique, quantitative) et de thèmes variés (finances, entourage, gouvernement des corps constitués, guerre, relations diplomatiques). L’analyse met ainsi à jour les mécanismes et les dynamiques par lesquelles, d’un côté, ces princesses exercent leur autorité à l’égal des hommes, comme des femmes « au coeur d’homme », tout en étant, d’un autre, contraintes par les restrictions morales, mentales et juridiques imposées à leur genre, les conduisant à adopter une pratique gouvernementale spécifiquement féminine, à exalter des vertus singulières, voire à tenter de modifier les règles de la politique ordinaire
This PhD thesis is based on the specificity of the history of the second House of Anjou (1360-1481) characterized in each generation by moments of discontinuity in which women find themselves in state governing positions as regents, lieutenants or vice-regents. This princely French dynasty offers a unique opportunity to observe and analyze a phenomenon that was in the developing stages both judicially and practically at the end of the Middles Ages, namely the exercise of political power by sovereigns who were not supposed to govern. Due to the increasing variety of existing sources, this study will also assess the administrative progress or institutional developments in the principalities where the Duchesses were involved in governing. The Duchesses have also been instrumental in the territorial expansions of their states, enabling the articulation of a common history for areas traditionally studied independently: Anjou, Provence, Barrois, Lorena, and Naples. The study, spanning over a century, draws on the dialectic of individual existence and collective destiny in order to offer a new interpretation to issues concerning women’s identity and political actions. These issues are analyzed using multiple approaches (political, anthropologic, legal, judicial, and quantitative) and various themes (finances, entourages, governing of constitutional bodies, war, diplomatic affairs). As a result, the analysis sheds light on the mechanisms and dynamics by which, on one hand, these princesses exert their authority as men’s equal, as women « with a man’s heart », while on the other hand, forced by their gender’s moral, intellectual and judicial imposed constraints, they adopt a governing style specifically feminine, exalt particular virtues or even change the rules of ordinary politics

Abstract:
L'œuvre romanesque de la duchesse d'Abrantès, abordée d'un point de vue historique et littéraire, permet de circonscrire tant les influences contemporaines stylistiques et idéologiques que l'originalité de la créatrice. Marquée par les courants historique, fantastique, mélodramatique, nourrie de l'actualité politique, sociale et littéraire du moment, elle restitue une époque. Traversée par une dimension autobiographique à valeur autojustificative et compensatoire, elle livre un portrait nouveau de la femme, animée d'un projet éducatif, elle illustre une thèse féministe dans l'image de la condition féminine durant le premier tiers du XIXe siècle. Quatre panégyriques de modèles historiques imposent la reconnaissance de la réussite féminine dans des domaines alors réservés aux hommes; une douzaine de romans intimistes évoquent l'éducation, le mariage, le statut respectif du mari et de la femme dans le couple, l'adultère dans le monde aristocratique et dénoncent dans une mise en scène romanesque de l'échec conjugal et dans une étude des méandres de la psychologie féminine, l'autorité abusive des hommes et la situation d'infériorité faite à la femme, proie facile pour les séducteurs, réduite à la passivité dans le couple, reconnue seulement comme génitrice et éducatrice. La duchesse d'Abrantès évolue dans sa réflexion de l'intransigeance à la recherche de la conciliation, et malgré un réquisitoire violent conclut à une résolution du problème dans une recherche de l'harmonie qui passe par une évolution des mentalités et la reconnaissance d'une égalite de nature entre l'homme et la femme
An historical and literary study of the duchess of Abrantès's novels encircles as many contemporary, stylistic and ideological trends as the originality of the author herself. The works of the duchess of Abrantes were greatly influenced by the historical, fantastic, romantic and melodramatic undercurrents of the time, and indeed the duchess drew heavily upon contemporary, political, social and literary events. Her works truly reflect the age in which she lived. In the novels, there is a strong autobiographical element by which she attempted to paint a very different portrait of herself. Driven by educational motives, the duchess was able to give her vision of feminism by illustrating in her novels examples of the female condition that existed in the nineteenth century. Her four panegyric historical portrait lead her readers to become aware of female prowess in areas normally reserved for men. In twelve other novels she wrote intimately of education, marriage, the respective status of man and wife and adultery in the aristocracy. She used these novels to denounce the authority of men, the inferior position of women and their vulnerability in the face of seducers. She condemned the then status of marriage in which the wife was destined to be the powerless underdog whose only value was to bear children and then educate them. The views espoused by the duchess of Abrantès did in fact evolve from one of intransigence to one of conciliation. Despite her bitter indictment at the outset she concluded that the problem of marriage could be solved by a. .

Bloomfield, Jeremy Charles. ""I am Duchess of Malfi still" : the framing of Webster's "The Duchess of Malfi"." Thesis, University of Exeter, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10036/3257.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis investigates the ways in which Webster’s Duchess of Malfi has been framed and interpreted, selecting various case studies from the four hundred years of the play’s history. It analyses the way in which a number of discourses have been brought to bear upon the play to delimit and shape its meanings, in the absence of a powerful determining author-figure such as Shakespeare. The investigation is organised around three “strands”, or elements which reappear in the commentary on the play. These are “pastness”, the sense that the play is framed as belonging to an earlier era and resistant to being completely interpreted by the later theatrical context being used to reproduce it; “not-Shakespeare”, the way in which Malfi has been set up in opposition to a “Shakespearean” model of dramatic value, or folded into that model; and “the dominance of the Duchess”, the tendency for the central character to act as a focus for the play’s perceived meanings. It identifies and analyses the co-opting of these elements in the service of wildly varying cultural politics throughout the play’s history. Sited within the assumptions and practices of Early Modern performance studies, this thesis constitutes an intervention in the field, demonstrating the possibility of a radically decentred approach. Such an approach is freed from either a reliance on Shakespeare as a prototypical model from which other works are imagined as diverging, or from the progressive narrative of theatre history in which twentieth century scholars “discovered” the true inherent meaning of early modern drama which had been “obscured” by the intervening centuries of theatre practice. It reveals blindspots and weaknesses in the existing Shakespeare-centred conception of the field, and opens up new possibilities for understanding Early Modern drama in historical and contemporary performance.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse de doctorat étudie la séparation des époux princiers sous ses différentes formes, ainsi que les pratiques mises en oeuvre par les conjoints de la haute noblesse en de telles occasions. L’expression séparation conjugale permet de désigner des cas de figure divers : suspensions plus ou moins durables de la cohabitation entre mari et femme, ou désunions définitives, ces situations étant judiciairement sanctionnées ou non. La recherche s’appuie sur l’observatoire privilégié que constituent les couples mariés de la deuxième Maison d’Orléans aux XIVe-XVe siècles, car les vies maritales de ces ducs et duchesses permettent d’envisager un échantillon très diversifié de situations. Cette analyse permet de montrer que mariage et vie de couple renvoient à des réalités complexes, bien plus diverses que ce que suggèrent les prescriptions de l’Église et des laïcs sur le lien matrimonial et la vie conjugale. L’objectif de ce travail est également d’améliorer notre compréhension de la structure mari-femme et du fonctionnement des couples dans l’aristocratie princière. L’étude éclaire par conséquent les solidarités à l’œuvre entre les époux, lorsque ceux-ci se retrouvent séparés sans que cette situation ait été provoquée par leur volonté de ne plus se côtoyer. Elle montre que le couple se définit avant tout par des liens économiques entre mari et femme. La thèse permet aussi, en retour, de souligner les marges d’action dont peuvent disposer les conjoints, l’un par rapport à l’autre et dans la société, lorsqu’au moins l’un des époux entend mettre fin à la vie commune ou au mariage
This PhD thesis deals with the topic of marital separation in its various forms; it aims at analyzing the behaviors which are implemented by spouses of higher nobility on such occasions. The phrase marital separation may be used to designate a wide range of configurations: for example, when husband and wife, though still married, are not living together, or when a marriage comes to an end, all these situations being reached through a legal process or not. This research is especially based on a thorough analysis examining the couples of the Second House of Orleans in the 14th and 15th centuries, as the marital lives of these Dukes and Duchesses provide a large sample of possible cases of separation. The research shows that the realities associated with marriage and married life are much more complex than what ecclesiastical and secular rules suggest on these matters. Another purpose of this thesis is to improve our understanding of the conjugal structure in princely aristocracy and of how married couples work. Therefore, the study sheds light on the solidarities shared by spouses when their separation does not derive from their own will to part. It shows that married couples are primarily defined by economic bonds between husband and wife. This work also highlights the possible autonomy enjoyed by spouses, in society and towards each other, in the cases where at least one of them intends to adjourn cohabitation or wants to put an end to their marriage

Abstract:
La première partie de l'étude est consacrée à l'édition critique de la correspondance de la duchesse de Ferrare, de son mariage (1528) à sa mort (1575). La deuxième partie examine l'activité épistolaire de la duchesse en suivant trois axes, domestique, politique et religieux, mesurant l'efficacité de l'outil épistolaire. En religion, Renée de France oscille entre positions évangéliques et loyautés calvinistes. En politique, le louvoiement est érigé en système, les protecteurs sont de tous les camps : Anne de Montmorency, les Guise, les Coligny. En Italie comme en France, la princesse use de la lettre comme d'un outil privilégié de la négociation. On y rencontre des nuances confessionnelles oubliées par l'historiographie. On y retrouve cette part de liberté de conscience, de culte et de gouvernement qu'une aristocrate, veuve et princesse de sang, a pu gagner dans le cadre étroit mais stratégique de son domaine de Montargis
The first part of this study is devoted to a critical edition of the letters of the duchess of Ferrara, from her mariage (1528) to her death (1575). The second part examines her epistolary activities, following three main lines : domestic, political and religious. As far as religion is concerned, Renée de France oscillates between evangelism and calvinism. In politics, there is a systematic hedging and her protectors are from each party, Anne de Montmorency's, Guise's or Coligny's. In France, in Italy, the princess sees the letter as a privileged way to negociate. We can find there some confessional subtle points that historiography forgot to mention, and we can gauge the efforts expended by this princess of the blood in order to gain freedom of consciensciousness, cult and government in Montargis

Abstract:
Isabelle de Portugal (1397-1471), épouse en 1430 de Philippe le Bon, duc de Bourgogne, a exercé son autorité et sa protection sur une sphère familiale large composée de son fils Charles, de batards du duc, de cousins, de neveux et nièces, dont plusieurs furent des portugais. Elle disposait de ressources abondantes, certaines attribuées au maître de la chambre aux deniers pour le fonctionnement de son hôtel, d'autres étant des fonds propres provenant de ses domaines en Flandre, Artois et Bourgogne, de dons et d'aides votées par les états. Son hôtel, dont plus de quatre cents personnes ont été identifiées, formait un milieu protégé d'hommes et de femmes, de nobles et de roturiers, qui partageaient sa vie itinérante, essentiellement aux Pays-Bas. La stabilité de l'emploi y était remarquable. La duchesse a été associée par le duc au gouvernement de l'état et, en son absence, disposait de complètes délégations de pouvoir. Elle a montré une grande compétence dans la gestion des finances et a joué un role diplomatique important dans les relations de la Bourgogne avec l'Angleterre et la France. Son hôtel a été dissous à sa demande en 1455 et, en 1457, elle s'est retirée de la cour pour vivre dans la charité et encourager les formes nouvelles de vie religieuse, mais elle revint à la vie publique pendant les premières années (1467-1471) du règne de Charles le Téméraire

Her household more four hundred persons of whom were identified constituted a protected environment of men and women, nobles and commoners, who shared her itinerant life, mainly in low countries. The stability of the employment was remarkable. The duchess was associated to the state government by the duke and, in his absence, was appointed to govern. She has showed a great competence in the financial administration and acted efficiently in the diplomatic relations of burgundy with england and France. According to her request her househould was broken-up in 1455 and in 1457 she retired out of the court to life in charity and to encourage the new forms of religious life, but she came back to the public life during the first years (1467-1471) of the reign of Charles the Bold

Abstract:
The album is huge. Depending on which librarian brings it to the circulation desk, you might be offered a cart to carry it to your seat in the British Library Reading Room or you might have to tote it yourself. Its vertical length is at least two feet; its width nearly as great. The covers are a dusty red-brown, faded and scratched, and the binding is broken so that the album must be tied with a flat cord to keep it from falling open when lifted. Inside, musty pages of heavy paper require you to stretch out your whole arm to turn them. Neatly affixed to the pages in rough chronological order are a variety of items in card stock: calling cards with the names of English dukes and duchesses in elaborate scripted fonts; handwritten menus for French meals served in grand country houses; seating charts for dinners large and small; printed bills of fare for restaurant banquets. The pages, despite their slight yellowing and a faint but perceptible yellowish smell, have an aura of faded opulence.
