Paperback. Condizione: New. Early modern heraldry was far from a nostalgic remnant from a feudal past. From the Reformation to the French Revolution, aspiring men seized on these signs to position themselves in a changing society, imbuing heraldic tradition with fresh meaning. Whereas post-medieval developments are all too often described in terms of decadence and stifling formality, recent studies rightly stress the dynamic capacity of bearing arms.Heraldic Hierarchies aims to correct former misconceptions. Contributing authors rethink the influence of shifting notions of nobility on armorial display and expand this topic to heraldry's share in shaping and contesting status. Moreover, addressing a common thread, the volume explores how emerging states turned the heraldic experience into an instrument of power and policy. Contributing to debates on social and noble identity, Heraldic Hierarchies uncovers a vital and surprising aspect of the pre-modern hierarchical world.Contributors: Richard Cust (University of Birmingham); Dominique Delgrange (Lille); Luc Duerloo (University of Antwerp); Joseph McMillan (Alexandria VA); Camille Pollet (Universite de Nantes); Antoine Robin (Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes); Simon Rousselot (Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes); Clement Savary (Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes); Hamish Scott (Jesus College, Oxford); Steven Thiry (University of Antwerp); Jose Manuel Valle Porras (Cordoba); Nicolas Vernot (Universite de Cergy-Pontoise).…

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. Unused hardcover, still in publisher's shrinkwrap. Weight over 1kg. -- "Heraldic images pervaded early modern politics. In particular, the king's bearings embodied sovereignty and advanced dynastic claims. They became the stuff of legends, as well as the cause of fierce disputes. But when did heraldic adaptation occur? Why was a disrespectful treatment damaging to the political fabric? By comparing armorial appropriation in the French and Spanish monarchies, Steven Thiry challenges the dominant view of princely image control. Eagles, lilies and lions not only visualized political virtues and vices. Their visual and material dimension imbued them with an agency of their own. Matter(s) of State offers a new insight into the symbolic mindset of the political process. Mystical exaltation, subversive adaptation, and even violent 'heraldic' iconoclasm appear as significant means of debating and even questioning rule.".…
