Early Modern Diplomacy, Theatre and Soft Power: The Making of Peace de Nathalie Rivère de Carles

Early Modern Diplomacy, Theatre and Soft Power: The Making of Peace: Early Modern Literature in History

Editat de Nathalie Rivère de Carles
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 dec 2016
This book explores the secret relations between theatre and diplomacy from the Tudors to the Treaty of Westphalia. It offers an original insight into the art of diplomacy in the 1580-1655 period through the prism of literature, theatre and material history.

Contributors investigate English, Italian and German plays of Renaissance theoretical texts on diplomacy, lifting the veil on the intimate relations between ambassadors and the artistic world and on theatre as an unexpected instrument of 'soft power'. The volume offers new approaches to understanding Early Modern diplomacy, which was a source of inspiration for Renaissance drama for Shakespeare and his European contemporaries, and contributed to fashion the aesthetic and the political ideas and practice of the Renaissance.

This book explores the secret relations between theatre and diplomacy from the Tudors to the Treaty of Westphalia. It offers an original insight into the art of diplomacy in the 1580-1655 period through the prism of literature, theatre and material history.

Contributors investigate English, Italian and German plays of Renaissance theoretical texts on diplomacy, lifting the veil on the intimate relations between ambassadors and the artistic world and on theatre as an unexpected instrument of 'soft power'. The volume offers new approaches to understanding Early Modern diplomacy, which was a source of inspiration for Renaissance drama for Shakespeare and his European contemporaries, and contributed to fashion the aesthetic and the political ideas and practice of the Renaissance. 

Caracteristici

The book examines the discussion of diplomacy and soft power in the plays of Shakespeare and Cervantes and their English, French, Italian and German contemporaries. It provides an international cross-cultural focus on the negotiation of European political and confessional conflicts and the official and non-official strategies of appeasement. The strong international array of up-and-coming and established scholars in literature and diplomatic history investigates early modern diplomatic forms of preservation of a European entente in the wake of the emergence of the nation-state.
