Early Modern Diplomacy

@historikerinnen @womenknowhistory @earlymodern @histodons

Mazargalli argues that consuls were essential for understanding #earlymodern states as “as a conglomerate of conflicting personal and group interests”.
Moreover, focussing on consuls as diplomatic actors reminds us that #emdiplomacy is so much more than courtly audiences and #peace negotiations. The economic side needs much more attention, especially as contemporaries did not necessarily distinguish between economic and political #emdiplomacy. (6/6)

Early Modern Diplomacy

We know far too little about the links between #emdiplomacy, church and confession.

At least one edited volume tried to fill this gap recently:

Early Modern Diplomacy

Some time ago another review of the #emdiplomacy handbook was published (in German) - and we are happy to see how well the handbook is received:

hsozkult.de/searching/id/reb-1

It says that "The handbook offers researchers a comprehensive overview of the new history of diplomacy. By mapping the field of research and highlighting desiderata and gaps, the individual contributions, which are based on case studies, encourage further research in this established field. At the same time, the handbook shows that research is necessary in order to capture European diplomacy in its diversity of actors, practices, themes and spaces."

H-Soz-Kult. Kommunikation und Fachinformation für die GeschichtswissenschaftenD. Goetze u.a. (Hrsg.): Early Modern European DiplomacyAls Forschungsfeld ist die Neue Diplomatiegeschichte seit ungefähr zwei Jahrzehnten etabliert, ihre Bezeichnung damit mittlerweile ein Topos. Umso wichtiger ist, dass das Handbuch „Early Modern Diplomacy“ dieses Forschungsfeld voll abbildet und es nochmals ausdrücklich von der älteren Diplomatiegeschichte abgrenzt.

Bright red book cover showing: an oval, silver-coloured mirror with a black frame comprised of sci-fi and fantasy monsters, with yellow lettering for the title, “HUMANS”, around the top of the mirror, in a stylized font with details that resemble whale-tails and bats’ wings. Subtitle just inside the mirror: A Monstrous History. Inside the bottom curve of the mirror: Surekha Davies. Along the left-hand edge of the cover crawls a xenomorph: a humanoid creature with an insect-like head and a long, sinuous, menacing, pointy tail.
