This volume brings together a fascinating selection of studies exploring the soft power tools used by heirs to the throne in order to enhance the communication of monarchies with their audiences during the nineteenth-century. How we perceive royals and their dynasties today – as families, as celebrities, as charitable figureheads of society or as superfluous relics of a bygone age – has deep roots in the monarchical cultures of nineteenth-century Europe. By focusing on the role played by heirs to the throne, this volume offers an original perspective on the ability of monarchies to persuade sceptical audiences, nourish positive emotions and thereby strengthen the position of each dynasty within its respective nation. Using examples from Britain, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Austria, Greece, Sweden, Norway and Prussia, an international team of experts analyzes and explains the development of the very soft power tools which are still being used by Ruling Houses today.

During the century that followed the defeat of Napoleonic France, Europe experienced its last monarchical age. In spite of dramatic changes in almost every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life, monarchical systems survived in rude health across the continent and only the First World War would put a dramatic end to many of them. By focusing on the role played by heirs to the throne, this volume offers an original perspective on the ability of monarchies to flourish under the dramatically altered conditions of the nineteenth century. The contributions consider the place of royal heirs within their families, their education and accommodation, their ability to overcome succession crises, the consequences of the death of an heir and finally the roles royal heirs played during the First World War. Ranging across Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Austria, Prussia, Württemberg and Denmark the international team of specialists contributing to this volume paint a portrait that is both analytical and truly European.

Le temps des hommes doubles : Louis Aragon a désigné ainsi la séparation voire l’opposition entre l’homme social et l’homme privé dans la société capitaliste. Pour les auteurs réunis ici, il s’agit plutôt de signifier qu’au temps de la souveraineté nationale en armes, dès lors que sont plus rigoureusement assignées aux soldats et aux citoyens à la fois une « identité » et une « cause » supposées dépasser leur état civil et leurs intérêts particuliers, l’occupation militaire multiplie, dans la recherche d’une accommodation entre les deux camps, les tensions et les combinaisons possibles entre fonctions ou statuts publics, sociabilités et influences locales, opinions et besoins. Pour caractériser les évolutions qui ont eu lieu entre les guerres déclarées par la France à l’Autriche en 1792 et à la Prusse en 1870, le présent livre met l’accent sur trois thèmes. Il traite d’abord des enjeux politiques et administratifs de l’occupation, parmi lesquels la neutralité, son devenir en tant que concept dans les relations internationales, et le positionnement des États neutres dans des conflits où l’on s’efforce de mobiliser aussi les opinions publiques. L’attention se porte ensuite sur les armées occupantes. Quelle que soit la part d’idéologie que l’autorité politique introduit dans leurs missions, la première de ces missions est de garantir leur propre sécurité. La recherche des accommodements ou le constat de l’extrême difficulté d’en trouver sont enfin abordés du point de vue des sociétés en proie à l’occupation. Dans ces situations où le présent peut être vécu et interprété en fonction d’une mémoire individuelle et collective d’expériences antérieures, le rôle joué par les occupants ne se réduit pas à la brutalité de la soldatesque et à l’exploitation économique. Ainsi, occupants et occupés peuvent aussi être amenés à jouer, même dans un contexte conflictuel, le rôle de passeurs culturels « malgré eux ».
