Over 400 years ago, Archduke Ferdinand Ernst was born into a torn world, who as Ferdinand III. from 1637 until his death in 1657 he was Holy Roman Emperor. His life was a war in search of peace. Together with the many countries of the Habsburg monarchy, he had inherited a war that could not be won by anyone militarily and brought terrible suffering to an entire generation. What had begun in 1618 with the Prague lintel as well as the religiously motivated revolt of the nobility against the Habsburgs could only be brought to a pan-European level in 1648 with the Treaty of Westphalia. How to get out of such a war had to be learned first and it meant saying goodbye to positions that had long been considered absolute: the unity of Christianity, the primacy of a denomination, the unity of the dynasty, the territorial Integrity and unity of the empire. Peace in the empire and with its European neighbors brought permanent and viable solutions to the conflict between Protestants and Catholics by allowing differences against their will. The institutional crisis of the empire was overcome, the peace congress as a model for interstate conflict resolution.

Medieval and early modern princely courts were not only inhabited by humans, but also by a wide variety of animals. This co-presence had crucial impacts on the spatial organization, social composition, and cultural life in Europe's dynastic centers. The contributions of this volume enrich our knowledge of a long-neglected aspect of premodern court life and invite us to reconsider our basic understanding of the court, courtiers, and court society.

"This English-language translation of Mark Hengerer's Kaiser Ferdinand III: 1608-1657 Eine Biographie is based on an analysis of the weekly reports sent by the papal nuncio's office to the Vatican. These reports give detailed information about the daily whereabouts of the dynasty, courtiers, and foreign visitors, and they contain the gossip of the court in addition to weekly analysis of some political problems. This material enabled the author to report on daily life of the dynasty and to analyze the circumstances under which policy was made, which has led to a balance between the personality of Ferdinand III and the problems with which he dealt. In this biography, Hengerer provides answers to the question: Why did it take the emperor more than ten years to end a devastating war, the traumatizing effects of which on central Europe lasted into the twentieth century, particularly since there was no hope of victory against his foreign adversaries from the very moment he came into power?"--

This book focuses on the connection between vigilance and the plague in France throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. For more than three centuries, between the middle of the 14th century up until circa 1670, the prevalence of the plague in France was said to be endemic, before it then vanished from French territory. The Great Plague of Marseille (1720-1722, which also impacted the rest of Provence, the County of Venaissin and Languedoc) proved to be an exception. During that period, the fight against the plague was deemed a top-priority along the French coast, and health institutions, called bureaux de la santé, were developed. Contributions to this book primarily focus on health vigilance from the standpoint of how to prevent an epidemic and how to respond to a declared epidemic. Among the salient themes addressed are: communications between health and different state actors, prevailing religious and political norms, and the popular participation in the fight against the plague. The use of the concept of vigilance enables the mobilisation of often rather distant branches of history, namely institutional. social, religious history, the history of communication and the history of public health.

Dans l'Europe princière des Temps modernes, les funérailles des souverains et des membres de leur famille donnent lieu à des cérémonies fastueuses dont les historiens n'ont que fort récemment mis en valeur le caractère fondamental. Consacré aux rituels funéraires princiers, cet ouvrage rassemble pour la première fois des études de cas collectés dans toute l'Europe chrétienne du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle, ouvrant ainsi la voie à des comparaisons fructueuses. Depuis le XVe siècle, les rituels funéraires curiaux se conforment à un schéma en trois temps (l'exposition du corps du défunt, le convoi vers le lieu de sépulture, l'office religieux et la mise au tombeau) pouvant varier en fonction des institutions et traditions propres à chaque pays, de la conjoncture politique et religieuse, des rapports de force internes et de la position occupée dans le jeu politique européen. Au XVIIe siècle, ce schéma est bouleversé : le modèle Renaissance, antiquisant, qui privilégie l'exposition et le convoi, est abandonné au profit de pompes funèbres baroques somptueuses à l'intérieur de l'église, où le catafalque, ou castrum doloris, occupe désormais la place centrale. Cette accentuation de la mise en scène et du caractère spectaculaire est étroitement liée à une véritable curialisation des funérailles, transformant une cérémonie originairement de nature politique et dynastique en fait de société. Les tombeaux princiers comptent souvent parmi les chefs-d'oeuvre de l'art. Dans l'Europe de l'époque moderne, ils prolongent la vie terrestre des souverains par une apothéose monumentale. Cette esthétique de la mort, présente dans toutes les civilisations, ne saurait occulter la motivation première de l'entreprise de monumentalisation : celle du faire mémoire. Comme les rituels de funérailles, l'édification d'un tombeau doit s'analyser en termes de stratégie politique. Prenant acte de la grande diversité des monuments funéraires élevés par les princes dans l'Europe du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle, cet ouvrage s'interroge sur les raisons qui les ont fait naître et sur les significations dont ils ont pu être investis. Ainsi sont abordés les rapports entre tombeau et territoire, tombeau et construction lignagère, tombeau et idéologie monarchique, tombeau et état "moderne". Au fil des siècles se produit une évolution complexe, si ce n'est contradictoire : désinvestissement de l'espace public de l'église au profit de la nécropole, de la crypte, voire de la sépulture individuelle ou privée ; abandon de la sculpture monumentale de la Renaissance pour l'exaspération rhétorique du sarcophage (aire germanique et nordique). voire renonciation au tombeau de corps et valorisation du monument de coeur (les Bourbons). L'art funéraire ne disparaît pas pour autant. Il triomphe dans l'éphémère des catafalques, véritable média de la gloire des princes et de l'idéologie monarchique depuis le XVIe siècle. Ce volume est le deuxième d'une trilogie consacrée aux funérailles princières de l'Europe moderne. Le premier. Le grand théâtre de la mort, s'intéresse aux rituels. Le troisième aborde les commémorations et la perception de la mort des rois par l'opinion publique.
