Abstract

Être fils de roi (Louis-Philippe), avoir à vingt et un ans commandé en chef en Algérie et connaître la gloire en prenant la fameuse smalah d'Abd-el-Kader, être l'auteur d'ouvrages historiques qui font aujourd'hui encore référence, avoir fondé ou possédé six journaux, avoir constitué l'une des plus belles bibliothèques de manuscrits du monde et une collection de peintures comparable à celle des plus grands musées, avoir été un "académicien au triple bicorne" (Académie française, des Beaux-Arts, des Sciences morales), avoir été l'amant de quelques-unes des plus belles femmes de son temps, avoir été l'amant de quelques-unes des plus belles femmes de son temps, avoir, après la défaite de 1870, jugé Bazaine, responsable de Sedan, avoir failli, de très peu, devenir président de la nouvelle république et donner, comme président de la Croix-Rouge, un essor considérable à cet organisme... Naître riche et mourir plus riche encore grâce à la gestion intelligente d'un immense patrimoine ; avoir connu l'exil et la proscription à plusieurs reprises sans jamais en concevoir de rancœur ni comploter... N'est-ce pas là un destin inouï que celui du duc d'Aumale (1822-1894) ? Ne fallait-il pas, en cette année du centenaire de la donation du domaine de Chantilly à l'Institut de France, tirer de l'ombre ce prince à l'intelligence étincelante, cet érudit de grande classe, ce collectionneur extraordinaire, ce soldat de génie, cet homme d'affaires hors de pair, doué pour tout, excellent en tout ? Conservateur des collections de Chantilly jusqu'à l'an dernier, Raymond Cazelles a dépouillé les milliers de pages de la correspondance et des écrits intimes de son personnage pour nous donner ce fascinant portrait.

Abstract

Many of the most significant studies devoted to Ambrogio Spinola have focused on one particular aspect of his life: his successful military career. This volume, through its interdisciplinary and cultural approach, breaks open this all too narrow perspective and expands our understanding of Spinola and his world. As a great military strategist and Catholic knight, entrepreneur in the international finance market, courtier, and diplomat, Spinola was certainly a Genoese, but he was also a member of the transnational Iberian elite, to which he linked his fate and that of his children. His life's journey between Italy, Flanders, and Spain, and the reinterpretations of his life by his contemporaries in art, literature, and the press, give us the opportunity to reflect on the multiple identities and the physical and mental wanderings of many Europeans of the Early Modern Age. Ambrogio Spinola offers an example of humanity that is impossible to capture in a single reading and is much more contemporary than we can imagine.
