»In the Shadow of Power. Subaltern Bodies at Early Modern Princely Courts«: This volume takes a fresh look at lower-ranking servants at early modern royal courts by combining approaches of social and body histories. Its contributions focus on subaltern groups of actors such as valets, wet nurses and bodyguards, who worked in the immediate spatial environment of rulers and their families. The volume thus offers new insights into the workings of dynastic rule and courtly sociality.weiterlesen
