Produktbeschreibung

‘New governing institutions made the early modern centuries an age of secretaries and ministers as well as rulers. This impressive, wide-ranging and notably well edited collection of essays by leading specialists, rescues this key development from previous neglect and will be essential reading for anyone who teaches or studies this period.’ Hamish Scott, University of Glasgow An illuminating exploration of the role played by state secretaries in shaping inter-state relations in early modern Eurasia The early modern period has long been seen as an age of great importance in the development of foreign relations. The rise of resident embassies, the development of institutions dedicated to diplomatic activity, and the growth of state bureaucracies were all components in the rise of recognisably modern diplomacy. This was an ‘age of secretaries’ that assigned important roles in the diplomatic process to a variety of state secretaries, chancellors and ministers. Bringing together case studies drawn from across Europe and Asia, and written by leading scholars in their fields, this collection offers a novel and genuinely trans-regional take on the emergence of modern inter-state relations. Paul Dover is Associate Professor of History at Kennesaw State University, GA, USA. He has published widely on the political, diplomatic and cultural history of late medieval and early modern Europe.
