The article presents an attempt to reconstruct a communication network of Jane Dormer, Duchess of Feria). A lady at the court of Mary I of England and a wife of a Spanish grand, she was a powerful patroness of English Catholic exiles and helped them enter the Habsburg patronage network. The analysis of political activities of the Duchess of Feria (which included exchange of political information and patronage) compared with that of other women patronesses, first of all, Anne Percy, Countess of Northumberland made it possible to define parameters of women’s patronage.

Abstract:

While few surviving jewels can be identified with any certainty as English work of the sixteenth or early seventeenth centuries, much descriptive evidence exists in the form of inventories and lists of gifts of jewels and plate exchanged between the sovereign and the courtiers each year on New Year's Day. A further fruitful source of information lies in the many contemporary portraits, those of ladies usually showing them with a lavish display of jewellery. Such jewels cannot, however, be claimed as certainly of English make; jewellery was an article of international commerce and much was impo

There is general agreement now that the court of Henry VIII and his father wasthecenter of politics, patronage, and power in England. It is also well understood how access to the king—the sole font of that power—and the ability to catch “either his ear or his eye” headed, to a large extent, the agenda of any ambitious courtier. Patronage is a theme that has accordingly dominated the historiography of the Tudor royal household, and indeed this is one of the two major concerns of court historians of the early modern period in general.

Abstract:

Recent scholarship on the ideological origins of the British Empire has emphasized the importance of John Dee's imperial writings in justifying the Elizabethan exploitation of English Atlantic discoveries. Yet a closer reading of these writings in the context of European politics, Elizabethan Court intrigues, and Dee's occult natural philosophy and magical imperialism reveals their covert purpose of recovering a lost British Empire in Europe. Dee wrote initially to address both the chronic and acute problems facing the regime in 1576, but rather than being an autonomous authority whose ideas c

Abstract:

This paper argues that Elizabethan handbooks on poetics enact two coevolving traditions in the history of rhetoric and poetics: one sees poetry as a rhetorical art of stylistic invention, while the other sees it as an object of study, analysis, and ethical training. To show this, I examine George Puttenham's Art of English Poesy and contrast it with William Scott's recently discovered Model of Poesy. Puttenham demonstrates how poetic style works as a tool of rhetorical invention; Scott, on the other hand, treats poetics as a method of literary critical analysis. Scott's poetics, I argue, is de

Taking as a starting point Asser’s De gestis Alfredi regis (XXIII)—which mentions that Alfred was given a book containing English verse—this article sets out to consider the existence of vernacular poetic anthologies as early as this period. If Asser’s episode is true, the book in question must have been a collection of Old English poetry, of which the Exeter Book may have been a later reflex, since it has been argued that this codex contains an anthology (Muir 1994).

Among the accomplished humanists who flourished in the court of Henry VIII, there were a number devoted to the promotion of the “New Faith,” which, with its emphasis on classical learning and rereading of the church fathers, also called into question certain theological truths of Rome as well as the authority of the pope. The most immediate and effective means for this promotion were the various types of patronage readily available to holders of government and household office, both high and low.

A complaint among twelfth-century English moralists and chroniclers was that monarchs were choosing “men raised from the dust” to be their ministers and counselors instead of members of old noble families. They charged that the king was choosing as his courtiers or familiares low-born men—plebes, ignobiles, even rustici or servi—allowing them to usurp places that belonged to the aristocracy. This chorus of complaint began in the time of William the Conqueror's sons.

Perception, as this article demonstrates, was everything at court, since false rumors that individual courtiers would be granted offices or would soon fall from power had a self-fulfilling potential.

Abstract:

The grand houses and gardens of William of Orange (1650–1702) and his courtiers in Britain and the Netherlands are strongly influenced by the French style, itself associated with Louis XIV, who was actually William’s arch-rival. This paper explores that paradox by probing ideas of power and friendship in 17th-century court culture.

Abstract: The world of the court, with its values and practices, underpins the world Marguerite de Navarre’s Heptaméron , without being the main subject of the short stories. The objective of this article is to analyze how the court and its courtiers were described by one of its founders. It is indeed possible to see not only that Marguerite does not share the vision of the court transmitted in anti-aulic writings, which were very popular in the sixteenth century, but that, in fact, she proposes an idealized vision of the court. It is even possible to observe a certain promotion of courtly cul

Analysis of these concepts allows us to see how courtiers, especially ladies, appear in her eyes, and how they should be from her point of view. The author’s status and impeccable reputation allowed her to create a special text — a kind of educational manual that recorded the norms and rules that noble y

Abstract:

The essay examines the birth of the fraternal order, that is ‘democracy’ in its widest sense, in a key text of the Renais-sance, Baldassarre Castiglione’s Book of the Courtier. Here courtiers reunited one evening at the Urbino court steadily create a position of power for themselves by disposing of the father figure of Duke Guidubaldo while suppressing their own rivalries and fashioning a common ideal I. Just as patriarchy, however, this essay argues that the collaborative regime of the brother is constructed on the silencing of women—sis-ters, wives, and mothers—and not just the court ladies

In addition to preserving a record of tones, chords, intervals, and other musical features, the historical text known as Mozart's Keyboard Sonata in Et Major, K. 282 (189g), also preserves traces of complex musical behaviors that were developed and replicated within eighteenth-century court society. The article focuses on several musical behaviors that would have been obvious to courtiers in Mozart's time and relates his presentation of them in K. 282 to courtly norms.

Sir William Keith of Delny was the illegitimate son of a Buchan laird, who rose through the young King James VI's chamber to become Master of the Wardrobe. He also served as ambassador for James to various countries, most remarkably in the failed mission to save Mary Queen of Scots from English execution. This article explores the nature of James's reliance on lesser men as courtiers, in his trust in individuals to deliver his sentiments and how his favour could be won, lost and regained. It also explores the same dynamics in the relationship between William and his kinsman superior, George Ke

The article analyses the strategies used by Henry Clifford, a secretary of Jane Dormer, Duchess of Feria, and an author of her “Life”, to justify possibilities and propriety of political actions for a woman (namely, for his patron). It is shown that Clifford em-phasized a unique piety, even holiness of the Duchess because these qualities set her apart from other courtiers, above all other women and even some men. The latter were to listen to the advice of the pious lady who was ascribed prudence and discernment necessary in the world of politics.

The arrival in Madrid in 1690 of the future queen consort, Maria Anna of Palatinate-Neuburg (1667–1740), second wife of the Spanish king Carlos II (1661–1700), also brought about the establishment of an unofficial palace faction known as the German Chamber. Since the members of this faction were part of Maria Anna’s household, the analysis of their social activities gives insight into court practices during the last decade of Carlos II’s reign. This article intends to shed light on the new networks and agency of members of the German Chamber at the Madrid court, in particular, that of the quee
