The Progresses, Processions, and Royal Entries of King Charles I, 1625-1642 is the first study to focus on the history, and the political and cultural significance, of the travels and public profile of Charles I. As well as offering a much fuller account of the king's progresses and Caroline progress entertainments than currently exists, this volumes throws fresh light on the question of Charles I's accessibility to his subjects and their concerns, and the part that this may, or may not, have played in the political conflicts which culminated in the English civil wars and Charles's overthrow.0Drawing on extensive archival research, the history opens with an introduction to the early modern culture of royal progresses and public ceremonial as inherited and practiced by Charles I. Part I explores the question of the king's accessibility further through case studies of Charles's three 'great' progresses in 1633, 1634, and 1636. Part II turns attention to royal public ceremonial culture in Caroline London, focusing on Charles's spectacular royal entry to the city on 25 November 1641.0More widely travelled than his ancestors, Progresses reveals a monarch who was only too well aware of the value of public ceremonial and who did not eschew it, even if he was not always willing to engage in ceremonial dialogue with his subjects or able to deploy the propaganda power of public display as successfully as his Tudor and Stuart predecessors.

A Franciscan scholar and theologian, John Peckham (c.1230-92) was appointed archbishop of Canterbury by the pope in 1279. His register survives at Lambeth Palace and is the chief source for his archiepiscopacy. This three-volume edition, prepared by Charles Trice Martin (1842-1914) between 1882 and 1885, rearranges the documents from their original thematic order to a chronological one, and omits the purely formal items, published elsewhere. The text is mostly in Latin, with some Anglo-Norman documents, for which a translation is provided in Appendix 1. Volume 3 contains letters 562-720, from July 1284 to July 1292. Topics include Anglo-Welsh relations and disputes between the Franciscans and other orders at Oxford. Appendix 2 contains an abstract of the entire register, describing the documents left out of this edition. Also provided is an index to the entire work.

Recruited straight from university, Ernest Satow (1843-1929) became one of the most respected British diplomats, particularly in Japan, where he is still remembered. After a career spent mostly in the rapidly developing Far East, he retired in 1906. Just before the outbreak of war, he was asked to compile a work on international diplomacy, and 'Satow', as it has become known, was first published in 1917, and in updated versions has not been out of print since. Satow's work was pioneering, there being at that time no comprehensive study in English of diplomacy. Volume 2 concentrates on international conferences and congresses from 1648. Lasting weeks, and sometimes months, such gatherings were often, until well into the twentieth century, the only occasion when heads of state or government met face to face. We still live today with the consequences of many of these meetings.

The Persian Mirror explores France's preoccupation with Persia in the seventeenth century. Long before Montesquieu's Persian Letters, French intellectuals, diplomats and even ordinary Parisians were fascinated by Persia and eagerly consumed travel accounts, fairy tales, and the spectacle the Persian ambassador's visit to Paris and Versailles in 1715. Using diplomatic sources, fiction and printed and painted images, The Persian Mirror describes how the French came to see themselves in Safavid Persia. In doing so, it revises our notions of orientalism and the exotic and suggests that early modern Europeans had more nuanced responses to Asia than previously imagined.

La Renaissance est le temps des rencontres shakespeariennes. Personne n'a oublié l'entrevue de Montereau où le duc de Bourgogne fut assassiné (1419) ni celle de Péronne où le roi de France fut capturé (1468) : le terme « rencontre » a alors une signification militaire qui baigne dans l'incertain. Les princes hésitent à se voir et plus encore à se recevoir. Le manque de confiance pèse bien plus que les embarras linguistiques, religieux et culturels dans l'organisation de tels sommets. Et pourtant, malgré l'essor du gouvernement par lettres et des ambassades en résidence permanente, les princes n'ont jamais renoncé à se fréquenter à l'âge moderne : l'empereur Joseph II n'hésite pas à se rendre en petit équipage en Crimée en 1787 pour visiter la tsarine Catherine II. Par quels moyens cette défiance a-t-elle été surmontée ? C'est interroger l'hospitalité et le cérémonial dans la construction d'une société de confiance. Fondée sur une enquête qui a mis au jour 3 344 entrevues entre princes régnants, leurs enfants et leurs épouses, cette promenade inédite dans l'histoire du continent montre comment les puissants rivalisent de magnificence, exhibent leur force et assouvissent un besoin aigu de reconnaissance. Mais cette cosmopolitesse engendre-t-elle une cosmopolitique, à l'heure où les sentiments nationaux se renforcent ? --
