Abstract:

After his stay in Paris in the summer of 1572, Philip Sidney (1554–86) spent nearly three years abroad, partly at the University of Padua and partly traveling through the Holy Roman Empire. His mentor Hubert Languet (1518–80) made him free of his large international network of friends and acquaintances, so that when the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre forced him to leave France, the seventeen year old could count on a benevolent reception in many places. This essay shows the various politico-religious cultures and structures Sidney learned on his travels through the empire, and incidentally confirms the historical identity of his equestrian mentor Pietro Pugliano.

Abstract:

One of the bitterest fruits of human conflict is the resort to massacre. From the St Bartholomew’s Day massacre in 1572 to ethnic cleansing in Bosnia, combatants have regularly attempted to defeat their enemies through acts of indiscriminate killing. The history of early modern European colonial expansion is replete with such incidents. The remembering and recounting of them has become the stuff of historical and political controversy. The aim of this article is not to review these painful episodes, but to examine the sixteenth-century context in which these resorts to massacre occurred; to focus on one particular atrocity that achieved some notoriety in Ireland in the early modern period; and to suggest that a now largely forgotten episode, at Mullaghmast in County Kildare in 1578, was part of a pattern of conquest which implicated not only the soldiers and settlers who served in the Gaelic localities, but also the upper echelons of the English administration in Ireland. This pattern was accompanied by an apologetic ideology of civility and savagery best reflected in a central text, John Derricke’s Image of Irelande (1581). Derricke’s Image provides us with sufficient evidence to suggest that indiscriminate slaughter was an accepted tool in the effort to subdue Gaelic Ireland. Indeed, Derricke’s text adds weight to the conclusion that the atrocity at Mullaghmast in 1578 implicates no less a figure than Sir Henry Sidney, the quintessential renaissance English official in Ireland. Mullaghmast is important not only because it demonstrates the officially sanctioned brutality of the conquest, but also because it raises the question of how memory and history are constructed.

Abstract:

A remarkable phenomenon in the history of Western political and legal thought is the emergence of so-called sixteenth-century Calvinist resistance theory. Groups of intellectuals, committed to the theology of John Calvin and seeing the Reformed churches of their homelands oppressed by hostile monarchs, stepped beyond the rather strict obedience that Calvin commended toward civil authority and advocated various degrees of civil disobedience and even revolution. Two early and famous expressions of Calvinist resistance theory were from the “Marian exiles,” British Calvinists on the continent who fled the persecution of Bloody Mary Tudor in the 1550s, and the French Huguenots who wrote in the aftermath of the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre of 1572. Scholars have made impressive claims about these writers. Many perceive in their work a major turning point in political and legal theory and identify it as a key source for the development of Western revolutionary thinking and modernization more generally.

Abstract:

The St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre (1572) and the Sack of Antwerp (1576), two of the most notorious massacres of the 1570s, were of international consequence in a confessionally-divided Europe. This thesis offers a comparative analysis of the Elizabethan political and print responses to both atrocities, evaluating to what extent and in what ways each shaped the increasingly Protestant political character of the period. It compares strands of argument aired by Elizabethan councillors, courtiers, military commanders and clerics, in contrast with the content of contemporary news pamphlets, to establish whether there was any overlap between the parameters of political debate and topical print. It investigates whether, and on what occasions, statesmen or figures associated with the court may have sought to confessionalise public opinion via the production of printed news. Analysing often overlooked printed sources, the thesis focuses on aspects of content and contexts of production. It considers the kinds of comment expressed on the massacres per se and in relation to: the nature of the wars in France and the Low Countries; Elizabeth’s foreign and domestic agendas; the compound significance of her gender, the unresolved succession and her realm's vulnerability to foreign invasion; and providential discourses concerning God’s favour and protection. These lines of enquiry throw up some insights into changing English attitudes towards the Catholic crowns of France and Spain and key figures abroad. Finally, the thesis reaches some broader conclusions regarding the development of an increasingly militant Anglo-Protestant nationalism in the mid-Elizabethan period.

Abstract:

L’objet de la recherche est l’écriture de l’histoire après la Saint-Barthélemy. Le massacre a-t-il changé quelque chose dans la manière de concevoir l’histoire et de l’écrire ? A partir de l’étude précise des textes de quatre historiens contemporains de l’événement, deux catholiques, deux protestants, un modéré et un radical de chaque camp, Belleforest, de Thou, La Popelinière et Agrippa d’Aubigné, nous avons pu observer que plusieurs concepts majeurs se trouvaient réinvestis à la suite de l’événement. D’abord celui de vérité, qui trouve avec lui matière et occasion d’interrogations nouvelles : comment rechercher la vérité d’un événement qui, de par la volonté de ses instigateurs, se dérobe à la connaissance ? Et comment la présenter au lecteur sans se laisser emporter par la passion ? Ensuite, la question, qui devient centrale, de la responsabilité : qui a décidé du massacre, et qui va en endosser la responsabilité ? A travers cette question lancinante, qui tient une place capitale dans les récits des historiens, on se rend compte que c’est sur les actions des hommes et donc de la culpabilité humaine que se focalise l’attention. Qu’en est-il dès lors de la conception d’une histoire providentielle qui prévalait jusque-là ? A travers cette étude des concepts retravaillés par les historiens après la Saint-Barthélemy, on est amené à considérer que c’est peut-être la notion même d’événement qui a surgi à cette occasion
The object of the research is the writing of history after St Bartholomew's Day. Did the massacre change anything in the way history was conceived and written? From the precise study of the texts of four contemporary historians of the event, two Catholics, two Protestants, one moderate and one radical from each camp, Belleforest, de Thou, La Popelinière and Agrippa d'Aubigné, we were able to observe that several major concepts were reinvested following the event. First of all, the one of truth, which finds with it matter and opportunity for new questions: how to seek the truth of an event which, by the will of its instigators, evades knowledge? And how can it be presented to the reader without being carried away by passion? Then, the question, which becomes central, of responsibility: who decided on the massacre, and who will take responsibility for it? Through this haunting question, which holds a crucial place in the historians' accounts, we realize that it is on the actions of men and therefore on human guilt that attention is focused. So what about the conception of a providential history that has prevailed until now? Through this study of the concepts reworked by historians after Saint Bartholomew's Day, we are led to consider that it is perhaps the very notion of an event that emerged on this occasion

Abstract:

An assessment of Bodin’s financial prospects as a writer and career prospects as an avocat and administrator leads to an account of practical and ethical considerations informing contemporary understanding of the nature and functions of money. This introduces a critical examination of the basis and validity of Bodin’s contribution in his debate with the Seigneur de Malestroit over the question of the reality or otherwise of price inflation in France An assessment of his work as a translator in the course of diplomatic exchanges concerning Henry III’s candidature for the Polish crown leads to comment on the ideas of the so-called monarchomachs, expounded amid the political and constitutional controversies that followed the 1572 Massacre of St Bartholomew.

Abstract:

This is the first of four chapters scrutinizing villainy in the French Wars of Religion (1562–98). Chapter 11 considers the St Bartholomew’s Day Massacre in August 1572, a mass killing that began with the murder of the Huguenot leader Gaspard de Coligny. Partisan responses to Coligny’s murder soon followed; of particular interest is La Tragedie de feu Gaspard de Colligny (1575) by François de Chantelouve. The latter, a militant Catholic, makes a vindictive mockery of the erstwhile admiral in the course of his tragedy. For Chantelouve, Coligny was a villainous traitor and a threat to France’s monarchy; Charles IX was thus justified in sanctioning Coligny’s death. Yet Chantelouve does not straightforwardly echo the official legal justification for the Massacre that had been commissioned by the Crown in 1573 from the leading jurist Guy du Faur de Pibrac.
