  • ISBN : 9788024625225
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book The Parisian Summit 1377 78 written by František Šmahel and published by Karolinum Press, Charles University. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Czech king and Roman Emperor Charles IV met with the French king Charles V in Paris in 1378. The author describes with intelectual brilliance and narrative talent the journey from Prague to Paris as a step by step journey reportage using contemporary French chronicles and vast medievistic literature as well as many beautiful illustrations. The result is an appealing account on medieval life, everyday and intelectual, mentality, grand European politics of the time or even medieval cuisine. The first part of the book presents the well-known facts of Charles IV life (brought up in Paris, his father’s John Luxemberg’s political and representational activities, his international goals, etc.). The middle part of the book brings a transcription of richly illustrated French chronicles. The third part analyses the importance of the meeting of the two most powerful European rulers of the time. Final and most original part consists of individual studies concerning practical organisation of medieval festivities, its logistic, transport, or culinary details, the court manners, relationships and symbolics. Šmahel draws from latest knowledge and methods from archeology and microhistory to cultural anthropology or iconography. This as a highly readable account of medieval time inspiring in its originality for expert historians as well as appealing to the general public.

  • Author : Geoffrey Parker
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2019-06-25
  • ISBN : 030024102X
  • Pages : 663 pages

Download or read book Emperor written by Geoffrey Parker and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “elegant and engaging” biography dramatically reinterprets the life and reign of the sixteenth-century Holy Roman Emperor: “a masterpiece” (Susannah Lipscomb, Financial Times). The life of Emperor Charles V (1500–1558), ruler of Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, and much of Italy and Central and South America, has long intrigued biographers. But capturing the nature of this elusive man has proven notoriously difficult—especially given his relentless travel, tight control of his own image, and the complexity of governing the world’s first transatlantic empire. Geoffrey Parker, one of the world’s leading historians of early modern Europe, has examined the surviving written sources in Dutch, French, German, Italian, Latin, and Spanish, as well as visual and material evidence. In Emperor, he explores the crucial decisions that created and preserved this vast empire, analyzes Charles’s achievements within the context of both personal and structural factors, and scrutinizes the intimate details of the ruler’s life for clues to his character and inclinations. The result is a unique biography that interrogates every dimension of Charles’s reign and views the world through the emperor’s own eyes.

  • Author : William Maltby
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2017-04-17
  • ISBN : 0230629083
  • Pages : 154 pages

Download or read book The Reign of Charles V written by William Maltby and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-17 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why should we remember the reign of Charles V? What happened in those years that altered the course of history and helped to shape the world we live in today? Few ages have been more important to the history of Europe and America than the reign of Charles V. Charles ruled the first truly global empire, his sovereignty extending beyond Spain to the Netherlands, much of Italy, the Americas, and the Holy Roman Empire. His life saw the waning of the Renaissance, the religious transformation of Europe by the Protestant and Catholic Reformations, and the emergence of Spain as a leading international power. At the same time, the conquests of Mexico and Peru, the establishment of a Habsburh empirein eastern Europe, and a series of wars with France, the Ottoman Empire and the German Protestants transformed European politics and the global economy. William Maltby's engaging new study not only looks at Charles V as a person, but also examines important critical issues: the emperor's policies and their consequences; the institional, economic and intellectual development of his various realms; and his military and diplomatic struggles. Concise and readable, it provides students and the general reader with an indispensable introduction to a reign that defies historical comparison, and an era that changed the world.
