Abstract:
Weakness of Savoy in the face of minorities and premature deaths from 1478 to Charles II’s accession in 1504 bequeathed grave political and financial problems, alongside growing tensions between the Estates of Savoy (capital Chambéry) and the Estate of Piedmont (capital Turin), with the latter far outstripping the former in granting the duke much needed subsidies. Difficulties were compounded by Charles’s own irresolution and procrastination, as well as his appointing favourites as councillors. Charles was further handicapped by the onset of the Italian Wars, with Savoy harried and plundered by foreign armies. Despite an advanced fiscal administration, Savoy was constantly in financial straits, forcing the duke to raise loans on foreign capital markets.

Abstract:
Duke Charles’s harassment of Geneva from the 1510s led to the arrest and execution of leading councillors and the formation of a pro-Swiss party, the Eidguenots, led by Besançon Hugues. Savoy claimed the office of justiciar (vidomne) by virtue of its imperial vicariate, which also threatened the rights of the bishop, whose supporters styled themselves Mammelus, though many were pro-Savoy. In 1519, prompted by refugees from the city, Fribourg concluded a Burgrecht with Geneva, whereupon Savoy laid siege to Geneva. The Burgrecht was rescinded, but renewed aggression against Lausanne led to a Burgrecht between it and Bern and Fribourg in 1525, followed by another with Geneva in 1526. By then Duke Charles had abandoned neutrality as Savoy lent towards Emperor Charles V, much to the chagrin of France.

Abstract:
In 1530 Duke Charles launched a fresh attack on Geneva, whereupon both Fribourg and Bern sent troops, which alarmed the other cantons. Peace negotiations led to Treaty of St-Julien in October and Deed of Arbitration at Payerne (December). Though brokered by all the cantons (except Glarus) in reality these treaties achieved little, though the vidomat was restored to Savoy, and Geneva’s Burgrecht acknowledged. Yet any failure by Savoy to abide by their terms would entail the Vaud being surrendered to Bern and Fribourg. For its part, Geneva insisted on its status as an imperial city, not beholden to Savoy. Savoy was ordered to pay considerable reparations, on which it repeatedly defaulted. Bern was angry at Geneva for failing to reimburse its war costs.

Abstract:
Bern remained reluctant to offer Geneva active support, a city which, apart from its Protestantism, lay beyond Bern’s geographical orbit. It feared reprisals from the Catholic cantons, and wished to remain on good terms with Fribourg. Above all, it feared France’s designs upon Savoy, including Geneva, which stretched back to the 1510s. French spies were scouting Geneva’s hinterland from early 1535. In November a small army under François Verey attempted to relieve Geneva, almost certainly under French instructions: Verey promised Geneva the French king’s protection. The most Bern did was to threaten to cancel its long-standing Burgrecht with Savoy. But there was popular support in Bern for intervention. The death of the duke of Milan in November rekindled French ambitions in Italy, imperilling Savoy.

Full text
Abstract:
In 1508 a Savoy official Jean Dufour produced a forged will purporting to have been drawn up by Duke Charles I in 1489, which assigned staggering sums to Bern and Fribourg as a reward for their help against the marquis of Saluzzo in 1486. Why Dufour waited so long to reveal his forgery and what his motives were remain unclear, but the effect was dramatic. Although there were sceptical voices in Bern, both city councils hurried to accept the supposed legacy. In 1511 Dufour produced a second testament, promising 400,000 fl to all the cantons, and a third raised the sum to 800,000 fl. Though these sums were later reduced, they caused Savoy severe financial embarrassment. Of equal significance, however, were the close links revealed with the two cities, where Dufour acquired citizenship, pensions, and handsome lodgings. The duchy of Savoy was relegated to a client of Bern and Fribourg.

Abstract:
The restoration of Duke Emmanuel Philibert to Savoy in 1564 led to Bern surrendering lands beyond the Vaud (Gex, western Chablais), while the Valais communes gave up the eastern Chablais. The indebted countess of Neuchâtel allegedly offered to sell her territory to Fribourg in 1543, which would have potentially saved it for Catholicism, but Fribourg was stymied by Bern. The equally indebted Count Michel of Gruyère sought to borrow money in turn from Fribourg and Bern, even offering to sell the county wholesale. In the end Gruyère was partitioned between Fribourg and Bern, as foreshadowed in 1537. The territorial gains had added one-tenth to the size of the Confederation, but Bern remained by far the largest city-state north of the Alps. Geneva tried but failed to be admitted as a canton of the Confederation, but beat off a further attack from Savoy in 1602 (the Escalade).

Abstract:
In 1532 Guillaume Farel began Reforming preaching in Geneva. Fribourg’s Catholicism estranged it from Geneva (and Lausanne, where there was evangelically tinged hostility towards the bishop), but still asserted its claims on the Vaud. Bern, always more reluctant to force a breach with Savoy, now was willing to abandon claims to the entire Vaud in return for the pledge of four strategically important communes. Unrest in Geneva led to the (temporary) expulsion of Farel, while Fribourg felt compelled by its Catholicism to renounce its Burgrecht, but was still insisting on payment of war expenses (as was Bern). By 1535 Bern was willing to recognize Savoy’s rights over Geneva if the duke were willing to tolerate evangelical preaching.

Abstract:
Savoy’s aggression towards Geneva devolved upon the League of the Spoon, a band of Savoyard noblemen. The bishop hoped to shore up his dwindling authority by joining the Burgrecht with Fribourg and Bern, but was rebuffed. The Genevan council instead stripped him of the vidomnat and in 1529 instituted its own civic court of justice. The bishop fled and in 1533 was finally expelled. Bern’s adoption of the Reformation in 1528 unleashed a revolt in the Bernese Oberland, which dashed any hope of lending practical help to Geneva. Meanwhile, continuing tensions within Geneva led to the flight of many Mammelus and confiscation of their property. Duke Charles sought cancellation of the city’s Burgrecht. Negotiations led to a judgement which declared the Burgrecht unlawful. Savoy now sought to drive a wedge between Protestant Bern and Catholic Fribourg.

Full text
Abstract:
Debate over the origins of the Burgundian Wars now recognizes that the imperial cities of Alsace alongside Bern, Fribourg, and Solothurn, encouraged by Emperor Frederick III’s declaration of the hostilities as an ‘imperial war’, launched a pre-emptive strike against Duke Charles the Bold of Burgundy in 1474/5. At the same time the western Swiss cities were equally keen to deter participation by the eastern cantons which might simply be an excuse for plunder. The early campaigns were led by the Bernese councillor and diplomat Niklaus von Diesbach, but after his death (August 1475) the campaigns continued, directed against the Savoy governor of the Vaud (a Burgundian partisan). Only then did Charles the Bold retaliate, leading to the famous Swiss victories at Grandson, Morat, and Nancy. A principal beneficiary were the Valais communes who annexed the Savoyard Lower Valais, while Bern and Fribourg took temporary control of the Vaud.

Full text
Abstract:
Much of francophone Switzerland (the Romandie) was a region open to rival political powers. Savoy controlled the Chablais and the Vaud, but Burgundy had designs upon the Romandie, and so did France, both in respect of the Franche-Comté and eastwards across the Jura mountains to the county of Neuchâtel. Alsatian cities and western Swiss cities, principally Bern, in turn had western ambitions, whether active or reactive. The principal means of securing influence in this open landscape was the protective alliance (Burgrecht), granted to lords, ecclesiastical foundations, and towns in return for admission to citizenship in the cities, some of whom became in due course associated members of the Confederation. The many and renewed Burgrechte between Bern (and Fribourg) and Savoy came under strain, however, because the cities accepted Savoy subjects as citizens, latterly citizens of Geneva, over which Savoy asserted jurisdiction.

Abstract:
The Savoyard state was an extreme example of the importance of military engineers and map making in the process of state formation because of the composite multi-lingual nature of the state and its vulnerable position between the power of France and the domains of the Austrian Habsburgs. The Dukes of Savoy attained royal status by often duplicitous policies and endless participation in wars on east and west which require extensive fortification. Their capital Turin survived a great siege in 1706. Latterly military cartography of high quality was produced in Savoy by its prestigious military engineers who inevitably bore responsibility when its expensive, ineffective defences collapsed before French Revolutionary armies.
