Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume, published as the catalogue for a major exhibition at Christiansborg Palace, provides a detailed historical account of Denmark's precarious position during the Congress of Vienna. It chronicles the high-stakes diplomatic maneuvering required following Denmark's alliance with Napoleonic France, which led to the loss of Norway. The book's unique approach is to tell this story of political survival through the magnificent objects of the Royal Danish Collections. It uses the portraits, documents, uniforms, and especially the grand silver services used at the Congress's balls and banquets to explore the "Dancing Congress" - the social and cultural dimension where informal influence was crucial. The work serves as a richly illustrated guide to how Denmark used cultural display and social diplomacy as tools to navigate a national crisis. -- Contents: Introduction; Road to Vienna: Denmark's War, 1807-1814 / Ole Feldbaek; Denmark and the Congress of Vienna / Claus Bjorn [Struggle for Survival; Relations With Russia and Sweden; Christian Günther Bernstorff and the German Confederation; Europe After the Congress of Vienna; Denmark, Holstein, Germany; Denmark in European Politics]; King Frederik VI in Vienna, 1814-1815 / Hans Kargaard Thomsen; Alexander I and the Congress of Vienna / Nikolai A.
