Abstract:

Le rôle de Claude de France en tant que mécène littéraire est amoindri par celui de sa mère, Anne de Bretagne, deux fois reine de France, et celui de son mari, le roi François I er . Morte à l’âge de 24 ans, Claude n’a pas pu, en dépit de ses efforts, établir un mécénat important à sa cour. Pourtant, les œuvres qui lui ont été dédiées ou qui ont été écrites en son honneur nous offrent un aperçu du rôle intellectuel qu’elle a joué à sa cour. Nous examinons plusieurs œuvres composées pour Claude de France lors de son règne : plusieurs œuvres didactiques destinées à édifier la reine et son entourage de femmes ( Le Doctrinal des princesses et nobles dames [c. 1506 ou 1515] de Jean Marot, L’Histoire et cronicque de Clotaire… et de sa tresillustre espouse madame saincte Radegonde [1518] de Jean Bouchet, L’Entrée royale de Claude de France de Pierre Gringore [c. 1517-18] et Les Obfuscations du monde de Jehan Daniel [c. 1524]) ; « Le Soulas de noblesse sur le coronnement de la royne de France Claude Duchesse de Bretaigne » (c. 1518) de Guillaume Michel de Tours, qui accorde à Claude une place d’honneur parmi les femmes célèbres de Boccace ; Le Beau Romant des deux amans Palamon et Arcita, et de la belle et saige Emilia (après 1521), une réécriture de La Teseide de Boccace que Claude de France a commandée à Anne de Graville, l’une de ses dames d’honneur ; et l’adaptation par la même écrivaine de La Belle Dame sans mercy d’Alain Chartier, dédiée également à la reine de France. En mettant en scène les tensions ou les harmonies entre hommes et femmes, chaque auteur contribue explicitement ou implicitement aux débats contemporains sur les vices et les vertus de chaque sexe.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the study of organizational processes accompanying the travels of royal princesses of France, in particular, the sister of King Henry III, Queen of Navarre Marguerite de Valois. The author analyses the "Memoirs" of the Queen, as well as the staff list of her court (1578) and demonstrates that male courtiers made up the major part of Marguerite’s entourage during the Queen’s travels. The most important of these travels is her journey outside France, to Spanish Flanders in 1577, with a multi-purpose political mission designed to access the validity of the claims of Francois de Valois, the younger brother in the royal family, to the throne of Brabant. The article presents conclusions about the use of all types of vehicles — land and river — of the royal train by the court in the warm season, as well as the characteristics of the travel modes of different categories of courtiers and employees of the court, men and women. It is shown that the Queen was accompanied by high-status secular and ecclesiastical persons of the French court, who are often related to each other, as well as by a part of the military royal house, specially allocated to protect the daughter of France.

Abstract:

Frank Dobbins in memoriamIn 1976 Louise Litterick proposed that Cambridge, Magdalene College, Pepys Library MS 1760 was originally prepared for Louis XII and Anne of Brittany of France but was gifted to Henry VIII of England in 1509. That the manuscript actually was prepared as a wedding gift from Louis to his third wife Mary Tudor in 1514, however, is indicated by its decorative and textual imagery, which mirrors the decoration of a book of hours given by Louis to Mary and the textual imagery used in her four royal entries. Analysis of the manuscript’s tabula and texts suggests that MS 1760 was planned by Louis’s chapelmaster Hilaire Bernonneau (d. 1524) at the king’s behest. The new theory elucidates the content and significance of Gascongne’s twelve-voice canon Ista est speciosa, which appeared beneath an original portrait of Mary Tudor and was intended to mirror the perfection of the Blessed Virgin and her ‘godchild’ Mary.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the foreword to the Mercure de France edition of de Staël. (1996 [1793]. Réflexions sur le procès de la reine. Paris: Mercure de France), Chantal Thomas, French historian and writer, writes that this apology in favor of Marie-Antoinette did not help the queen nor the author herself; on the contrary it only made the latter more unpopular. So why did Germaine de Staël write it? Mme de Staël and Marie-Antoinette did not share many interests; however, at the moment of The Women’s March on Versailles in October 1789, the situation had changed. It was at this moment, when Mme de Staël witnessed people’s hatred for the Queen, that she for the first time felt that she was on her side. She had the feeling that the Queen would be a victim to a public opinion that had been “manipulated” (Thomas. 1996. Preface. In Réflexions sur le procès de la reine, 7–14. Paris: Mercure de France: 12) in a systematic way, and to which she herself had been a victim. Pursuing some ideas formulated by Reddy (2000, 2001) and (Nussbaum, Martha C. 2001. Upheavals of thought: The intelligence of emotions. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.) in their work on emotion and empathy in history and philosophy respectively, I hope to offer some suggestions, with the aid of cultural semiotics. More specifically I hope to be able to provide some answers to the question whether Mme de Staël’s apology might be regarded as an act of compassion.

Abstract:

This article examines the itineraries of Margaret of Valois (1553–1615), Queen of Navarre, during her stay in the south of France between the late 1570s and early 1580s, which coincided with the crucial phase of the Religious Wars between Catholics and Huguenots. The main source for the study of these itineraries are the letters of Queen Margaret from the National Library of Russia, which make part of the collection of Peter Dubrovsky. The article traces the history of letters of the Queen of Navarre in St Petersburg, and it is suggested that the carton of the documents (Autograph 57) is part of the personal archive of State Secretary Villeroy. The author also analyses new data on the princess’ itineraries during her childhood, based on the new electronic database, as well as the historiography of the question of her movement, which makes it possible to understand the place of the St Petersburg autographs in the reconstruction of Margaret’s unknown itineraries in 1579–1582. Most of Margaret’s letters were written in territories ruled by Henry of Navarre, in Guyenne and Gascony and Navarre and represent an array of 32 documents of great importance, which help determine exactly where the Queen went to, indicate the trajectory of her movement, specify the duration of her stays in particular localities, and respectively, suggest possible delivery times for letters to recipients, mainly to her brother Henry III and her mother, Catherine de’ Medici. The study of Margaret’s messages from the point of view of her itineraries also helps place them in the historical context of religious and political events of the Civil Wars period in France, identify the details of the peacemaking role of the Queen in the south of the country, as well as understand the mechanisms for the implementation of peace treaties and decisions by the opposing parties.

Abstract:

In 1561, George Buchanan definitely left France to live in Scotland where he became court poet of the Catholic Queen Mary Stewart, even if he publicly became Protestant. At the beginning, the humanist composed a few epigrams in which the queen is depicted as a good sovereign who restores the Golden Age in Scotland. A few years later, Buchanan depicted Mary Queen of Scots as a tyrant in his Rerum Scoticarum Historia, published in 1582. This article will provide a comparison between Buchanan’s different works (poetical works, tragedies and political and historical works) and show that the aesthetic choices and the references and quo- tations of ancient writers are based on Buchanan’s political thought about the Good King and the Tyrant, as we can read in the De jure regni apud Scotos dialogus, published in 1579.

Abstract:

Introduction. The court of Anna Yaroslavna, the French queen of the 11th century, has not been specifically studied in historical literature. The author proposes to find out how the ecclesiastical environment of the Queen was formalized and structured in 1051–1075, who of the church persons formed her inner circle, and whether the royal ecclesiastical household had an influence on the formation of the church policy of the crown. Methods. The methodology is a combination of institutional and social history as part of the systemic approach that makes it possible to understand the evolution of the Queen’s household within the curial Capetian system. Analysis. The reviewed sources indicate that Anna Yaroslavnas staying in France and her relationships with the curial clerics were very close. The Royal acts attest to Anna’s high level of involvement in the ecclesiastical affairs of France, her regular support for the church persons of Curia regis, the Chancellor-Bishop and his servants, as well as the state of curial priests. Results. The ecclesiastical entourage of King Henri I and Queen Anna largely shaped the policy of the Capetians and strengthened dynastic authority. As a widow and queen mother, Anna Yaroslavna played in accordance with the policies of Henry I and his predecessors, contributing to the further strengthening of the church presence at the court, and in particular the bishops in Curia regis, as opposed to the feudal clans and influence of the pope. At the same time, all her actions were aimed at the interests of the crown in order to guarantee the safe preservation of the throne for her son Philip I.

Abstract:

The article analyzes the itineraries of Anna Yaroslavna, Queen of the Franks, daughter of Prince Yaroslav I of Kyiv, during her stay in France in 1051–1075. Based on 26 royal charters with her mention, preserved in the repositories of France and the Vatican, her own charter of the foundation of the monastery of St. Vincent in 1065 from the National Library of France (BnF), as well as the act of her second husband Raoul de Vexin, Count of Amiens and Valois (between 1067 and 1069), the author attempts to reconstruct the movements of Anna Yaroslavna. The paper is devoted to the period of her marriage to the King Henry I (1051–1060), as well as to the first years of the reign of her son Philip I (1060–1067), when she actively participated in the administration of the possessions of the Capetian dynasty. As the analysis of the documents shows, Anna lived mainly in the royal residences and castles of Île-de-France, among which Paris did not play the role of the key seat of the royal family. Obviously, Anna Yaroslavna preferred traditional, built in the Carolingian times, castles and fortified estates, which served as security functions and, at the same time, were representative and convenient places. She also visited neighboring regions where the kings of France had the rights of suzerain. Her movements are closely related to the question of the socio-political role of the queen in the classical Middle Ages and make it possible to clarify the boundaries of the power and capabilities of a foreign princess on the French throne, as well as to debunk certain established myths and speculations about Anna Yaroslavna.

Abstract:

Isabeau de Bavière compte parmi les figures jugées les plus sulfureuses de l’histoire de France. C’est à la littérature monarchique officielle et à des œuvres pamphlétaires d’obédience bourguignonne qu’elle le doit principalement. Chez les chroniqueurs bourguignons – Monstrelet, Lefèvre de Saint-Rémy, Fénin ou la Chronique des Cordeliers –, Isabeau apparaît en revanche comme un personnage marginal et qui semble n’avoir eu aucune incidence sur le jeu politique de son temps. L’essentiel des développements qui la concernent, font plutôt d’elle une alliée fidèle pour Jean sans Peur, et une carte qu’il fut en mesure d’abattre pour s’assurer le contrôle sur un royaume de France alors en déshérence.

Abstract:

Pierre des Noyers, secretary of Queen of Poland Louise-Marie Gonzaga, is known for his role as a messenger, envoy, court journalist and sometimes propagandist. His work as an unofficial diplomat for the Queen and ambassador for France is less famous though no less interesting. Even though he was already quite involved in these time-consuming tasks, Pierre des Noyers also acted as a scientific intermediary for the quite curious Queen Louise-Marie of Poland. He maintained contacts with many scholars from France and Italy. He could nurture this network thanks to his position as an informal diplomat at the court of the Queen and his dedication to science in general. Even by discarding his most official and political letters, his known correspondence amounts to several hundred letters written in a period of around 50 years to various friends and scholars. Roberval, Gassendi, Boulliau, Hevelius or Pascal are among these contacts and he plays for most of them the role of a scientific intermediary sharing with them observations, books and anecdotes. His letters are filled with astronomical observations, prodigies and prophecies. Des Noyers was also a practitioner of science. Having possessed a rather large collection of scientific instruments he always sought the improved ones and his daily life was marked by scientific studies. He wrote meteorological bulletins for Academia del Cimento in Florence, studied the measurement of time, observed the sun and showed interest in the inner workings of the human body. This article will delve further into more scientific aspects of Pierre des Noyers’s life, both at the court of Louise-Marie and outside. The first part presents a rough overview of the secretary’s contacts in the scientific environment of 17th Century France and how they were used to connect scholars from Poland with this environment. The second part of this work presents Pierre des Noyers’s practice of science as a tool to understand the world and for which utmost diligence in measurement and practice is required. The last part focuses on des Noyers’s application of this scientific method in two, now pseudo-scientific fields: astrology and divination.

Abstract:

Fromental Halévy’s five-act grand opera La Reine de Chypre premiered in Paris in 1841. Many critics viewed the work as a great success and seen as a true rival to La Juive (1835). Wagner, who was in Paris at the time, even went so far as to claim the composition ‘a new step forward’ in the world of opera, evidenced in the many review articles and publications he wrote about the work. This article attempts to uncover what Wagner admired about Halévy’s composition, especially within the context of the German composer’s ‘artistic exile’ in France (1839–1842) and the completion of a new dramatic conception of German romantic opera in Der Fliegende Holländer (1843). The connections between the two works are explored, revealing an affinity for the exile and the desire for redemption.

Abstract:

Queer as a gender identity draws varying responses globally. In French the representation of Queer in various social media has raised a number of public’s perceptions, both in positive and negative manners. This perception does not only concern about French linguistic issues, but also its socio-cultural issues. This study puts an emphasis on the widely-used speech patterns showing the public perception on both French queer and immigrant queers posted on French social media. Further, it also examines the socio-cultural context that influences the social contact and relation between the public and the phenomenon of Queer as a subject in social media. This study uses interactionist approach and gender-based critical discourse analysis based on the theory of interpersonal contact between groups proposed by Gordon Allport. In explaining the phenomenon, the researcher employs qualitative content analysis and uses criticial discourse analysis and gender-based criticism. The data are collected from both French and immigrant queers’ posts on social media in 2020. The results show that French queers are perceived to have equal standing position with other French people as they are considered as a part of French society. The result also shows that unlike French queer, the immigrant-descent queer are considered to have inequal position with French society due to the immigrant’s negative stereotype as the trigger of social problems in France.

Abstract:

In early 1831, the novelist Edward Bulwer-Lytton contributed a comparative essay to the Edinburgh Review on “the spirit of society” in England and France. A key issue for discussion, of course, was that of fashion. “Our fashion,” stated Bulwer-Lytton, “may indeed be considered the aggregate of the opinions of our women.” The fundamental dichotomy which ran through these pages was that between public and private: “the proper sphere of woman,” Bulwer-Lytton continued, “is private life, and the proper limit to her virtues, the private affections.” And in antithesis to the aggregate opinions of “the domestic class of women”—in his view, the only virtuous kind of women—which constituted fashion, stood “public opinion”; that exclusive masculine realm, that should remain free of “feminine influence.”Some two years later, in his two-volume England and the English, Bulwer-Lytton restated the antithesis between fashion and public opinion, both repeating his earlier formulation and at the same time significantly modifying it. By 1833, his definitions of fashion and opinion ran as follows: “The middle classes interest themselves in grave matters: the aggregate of their sentiments is called OPINION. The great interest themselves in frivolities, and the aggregate of their sentiments is termed FASHION.” Here, Bulwer-Lytton no longer designated fashion as the aggregate of the opinions of women but, instead, as the aggregate of the opinions of the upper classes; and public opinion was no longer the domain of men but, instead, the aggregate of the opinions of the “middle class.”

Full text

Abstract:

AbstractTheLife of Maria de’ Medici,the biographical series of twenty-four large-size paintings executed for the Queen Mother of France by Peter Paul Rubens in 1622–25, is traditionally regarded by historians as both a masterpiece of Baroque art and a monument of political naïveté. According to this view, the series was a disrespectful visual bravado that exposed both patron and painter to scandal by publicly advertising the queen’s political ideas and ambitions, which were not only audacious, but often in opposition to those of her son King Louis XIII. This article challenges this assessment by reading theLifewithin the context of seventeenth-century uses of dissimulation and spatial control as strategies to limit both intellectual and physical access to information. It argues that the series was imbued with multiple layers of meaning, intended for different audiences, and that access to these was strictly controlled by the queen and her circle.

Abstract:

Europeans have imagined India as a land of fabulous riches and exotic legends since the time of ancient Greece. In Greek mythology Dionysus, the god of passion and wine, was said to have come from India, and Alexander the Great's proudest achievement was arriving at the banks of the Indus. When, after 1498, explorers from Portugal, Holland, England, Denmark, and France began to establish trade links with the subcontinent, it seemed the legends were true; rare spices, silks, gold, and precious stones were transported to Europe and added fuel to already inflamed imaginations. The very name of the city of Golconda became a synonym for unimaginable wealth. There was confusion between all things exotic or “oriental.” Turks, Africans, Persians, American “Indians,” and Caribbeans were all from the same imaginary region, “the Indies,” which existed more in the poetic fantasies of Europeans than on a geographical map.As early as 1626 at the court of Louis XIII, king of France, the mysterious figure of Asia appeared in the Grand Bal de la Douairière de Billebahaut, a ballet danced by the king and his noble companions. In 1635 The Temple of Love, a court masque (as le ballet du cour was known in England), was presented at Whitehall Palace in London. In this spectacle, Persian youths voyaged to India to encounter Indamora, Queen of Narasinga, danced by Queen Henrietta Maria herself in a costume designed by Inigo Jones. Back in France, a Sanjac Indien represented the continent of Asia in another court ballet, Les Entretiens de la Fontaine de Vaucluse (1649).

Abstract:

A memorial for Mary, Queen of Scots, and for two of her ladies-in-waiting, Barbara Mowbray-Curle, wife of Gilbert Curle, a secretary of the queen, and her sister-in-law, Elizabeth Curle is kept in St Andrew's Church in Antwerp (Belgium). The monument was founded by Barbara's son, Hippolytus. After the execution of the queen the ladies left England and settled first in Paris and afterwards in Antwerp. The article concentrates on the two sons of Barbara, who became Jesuits. Little is known about the elder, James. He died in 1615 in Spain, probably still a Jesuit student. The younger one, Hippolytus (who died in 1638), acted as a manager in the Scots College in Douai (France). He is praised as one of the principal benefactors of the college. More particularly the article comments on the testament he drew up when he joined the Jesuit order in September 1618, of which an authenticated copy is kept in the Scottish Catholic Archives. It offers a telling insight into the situation of the Curle-Mowbray family in exile. It reveals also the family's major concern: the restoration of Catholicism in Scotland through the training of a suitable clergy.

Abstract:

Wertmüller's 1785 portrait of French Queen Marie-Antoinette was a disappointment when first exhibited, a reaction partially explained by the conflicting associations surrounding the Queen's dress. This article examines the gown worn by Marie-Antoinette in the portrait — a robe à la turque — and its wider context in 1770s–1780s France. The gown, which was probably a real garment, corresponds to contemporary fashion plates and extant garments of the same style, whose distinct cuts demonstrate their connection to Turkish dress. The style's fashionability and formality is considered, as well as its role in the Queen's wardrobe and reputation. The turque joined other Ottoman-inspired French fashions in aligning with the Enlightenment ideas about simplified, unostentatious dressing that Marie-Antoinette embraced. However, the turque opened the Queen to criticism based on its fashionability, as well as connections between Ottoman dress, luxury and eroticism.

Abstract:

During his embassy to France between 1557 and 1568, João Pereira Dantas produced valuable reports on French events that have remained almost unnoticed. The purpose of this article is to present the major themes of Dantas’s epistolary and to invite experts on the history of France and Europe to make greater use of their contents. Additionally, this paper demonstrates the key role played by Dantas at the Valois court, by documenting his relations with Queen Catherine de Medici and King Charles IX. The study of Dantas’s epistolary, also reveals his use of France as a centre for Portuguese networks of European information. Finally, through a careful study of Dantas’s actions and a comparison to his predecessors in the French embassy, the importance of the French connection for Portugal - and, crucially, vice-versa - is made in an under-studied period of French-Portuguese relations deeply influenced by the French civil wars.

Abstract:

The present investigation studies the main dresses of the queen, Marie Louise of Parma, valuing the evolution of the female costume. The main tailors and dressmakers of the sovereign will be studied, who not only made dresses, but were also in charge of creating the textile image of the queen. Along with the national fashion creators, there are foreigners, chosen for the exclusivity of their merchandise or for being the most outstanding professionals on an international scale. The Royal Wardrobe is the main stage, where the wife of Charles IV receives her orders of fabrics brought from different foreign countries, such as Paris and Buenos Aires. Through the inventories and invoices preserved in the Palacio General Archive in Madrid, we know that the work and creations of this series of artisans are no longer carried out in anonymity, but that their work begins to be valued as a creation that reveals a great inventiveness and knowledge of geometry, cutting and sewing.

Abstract:

This article contributes to the discussions about the ways in which societies phase out (or not) of long periods of war by focusing on Jacques Feyder’s film L’Atlantide (Queen of Atlantis) (1921) through the perspective of the challenges France faced after World War I. I argue that carefully crafted entertainment products such as L’Atlantide contributed to a slow “demobilization” of the mind in France. A distancing/reflecting mechanism at the heart of the film is twofold: it tackles fundamental changes brought about by the war, such as the degree of violence that permeated society, while providing the escapism of a colonial backdrop. This analysis proposes to read L’Atlantide as a text symptomatic of a time when World War I was in everyone’s mind and when it had yet to be “digested.”

Abstract:

The French Early Eocene (Ypresian, 52–55 million-year-old) amber of Oise contains a rich and well-diversified myrmecofauna, which has remained unstudied until now. A recent survey of these fossil ants revealed 40 different species, among which nine belong to the subfamily Ponerinae. We describe here the two best-preserved morphotypes: a possible ergatoid queen representing the earliest known occurrence of the extant genus Platythyrea Roger, and described as a new species P. dlusskyi sp. n.; and a male morphotype related to the equivocal, paraphyletic genus Pachycondyla Smith, thus described herein but not formally assigned to genus until the male-based taxonomy of Ponerinae is better established. This fauna provides an ecological context to make inferences about the paleoenvironment of northwestern Europe during the PETM and gives new arguments for a radiation of modern ants at that time.

Abstract:

Nosema ceranae is a highly prevalent intracellular parasite of honey bees’ midgut worldwide. This Microsporidium was monitored during a long-term study to evaluate the infection at apiary and intra-colony levels in six apiaries in four Mediterranean countries (France, Israel, Portugal, and Spain). Parameters on colony strength, honey production, beekeeping management, and climate were also recorded. Except for São Miguel (Azores, Portugal), all apiaries were positive for N. ceranae, with the lowest prevalence in mainland France and the highest intra-colony infection in Israel. A negative correlation between intra-colony infection and colony strength was observed in Spain and mainland Portugal. In these two apiaries, the queen replacement also influenced the infection levels. The highest colony losses occurred in mainland France and Spain, although they did not correlate with the Nosema infection levels, as parasitism was low in France and high in Spain. These results suggest that both the effects and the level of N. ceranae infection depends on location and beekeeping conditions. Further studies on host-parasite coevolution, and perhaps the interactions with other pathogens and the role of honey bee genetics, could assist in understanding the difference between nosemosis disease and infection, to develop appropriate strategies for its control.

In 1862 Jean Martin Charcot was appointed Physician at the Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris, and simultaneously John Hughlings Jackson was appointed as assistant physician at the National Hospital for the Paralysed and Epileptic, Queen Square, London. Both men made significant contributions to the development of neurology, many of which remain important to contemporary neurologists. The achievements and the work of Charcot and Hughlings Jackson are considered in the light of their respective localities and medical education, and the structure of hospital institutions and political allegiances are compared in the late 19th century in France and Britain.

Abstract:

Relatively numerous source data about Mary, the sister of Serbian queen Helen, the wife of King Uroš I, proved to be crucial for resolving the long-elusive issue of Helen’s origins. However, Mary was in her own right an important historical personality, whose family links and life course mirror the complexity of political and religious relations in southeastern Europe in the 13th century. The paper begins by readdressing the issue of Mary’s and Helen’s origins, which has not met with an appropriate response in historiography. Then, following in the path of several studies recently published abroad, it sheds light on Mary’s life course, from her marriage to Anselm of Cayeux, a prominent baron of the Latin Empire, through her stay in the Kingdom of Sicily, France and Serbia, to the data on her offspring.

Abstract:

During the interwar period, the relations between Romania and Poland had, as a common factor, major interests to counter an unprovoked attack from Soviet Russia – USSR. Meanwhile, the rich medieval tradition, the cultural, political and spiritual interferences, assured the substance of mutual relations between the two countries. Romanian-Polish relations were supported and encouraged by France, which had the incentive to achieve and maintain a “sanitary cordon” against the danger of the Bolshevik/Soviet Union. Romania and Poland evolved into a complex and sensitive geopolitical space in Central and Eastern Europe which took political, diplomatic and military actions to build relationships based on the mutual recognition of borders and the support for the two major Western democracies, France and The United Kingdom. The Romanian-Polish relations bore the unmistakable imprint of political and diplomatic figures who succeeded to the leadership of the two countries, in Poland – Marshal Jozef Pilsudski and in Romania – King Ferdinand, Queen Mary and the scholar Nicolae Iorga.
