Book Description
From oaths and hand-kissing to coronations and baptisms, Power and Ceremony in European History considers the governing practices, courtly rituals, and expressions of power prevalent in Europe and the Ottoman Empire from the medieval age to the modern era. Bringing together political and art historical approaches to the study of power, this book reveals how ceremonies and rituals - far from simply being ostentatious displays of wealth - served as a primary means of communication between different participants in political and courtly life. It explores how ceremonial culture changed over time and in different regions to provide readers with a nuanced comparative understanding of rituals and ceremonies since the middle ages, showing how such performances were integral to the evolution of the state in Europe. This collection of essays is of immense value to both historians and art historians interested in representations of power and the political culture of Europe from 1450 onwards.

Der Band vereint exemplarische Studien zum künstlerischen Austausch zwischen den Zentren vor allem des östlichen Mitteleuropa vom 13.- 16. Jahrhundert. Anhand verschiedenster Gattungen - von der Grabskulptur über Malerei und Goldschmiedekunst bis zur Illustration von Rechtshandschriften - werden Wechselwirkungen zwischen einzelnen Metropolen und Regionen untersucht, zugleich aber auch unter einzelnen gesellschaftlichen Gruppierungen wie den Herrscherhöfen, den Adelsherrschaften und dem reichen Handelsbürgertum.
