Numeri ISBN - 0521584620 Nomi Corp , Edward Gregg, Edward Paese di pubblicazione GRAN BRETAGNA Lingua di pubblicazione INGLESE Court in Exile Hardback (ISBN-13: 9780521584623 | ISBN-10: 0521584620) Court studies and Jacobitism have both received considerable attention from historians in recent years, yet so far no attempt has been made to provide a comprehensive examination of the Jacobite court in exile after the revolution of 1688¿9. This book takes a completely fresh look at the Stuart court in France during the years when the Jacobite movement posed its greatest threat to the post-revolution governments in London. The Stuart court at Saint-Germain-en-Laye is revealed as not only large and well financed, but also magnificently located in a spectacular royal palace vacated only recently by Louis XIV and in very close contact with the French court at Versailles - yet maintaining the traditions, organisation and ceremonial of the English court at Whitehall. The book also shows how the Stuart court in France came to an end, and explains why and how it has since been so badly misrepresented. ¿ The first full study of the Stuart court in exile in France, following the ¿Glorious Revolution¿ of 1688¿89 ¿ Covers all aspects of the court - social, financial, cultural - and not merely the political background ¿ Emphasises cultural and patronage issues, breaking new ground in describing the painting, poetry and music of the court Contents Introduction; 1.
