11 Spanish and Portuguese Diplomacy in Early Modern Europe (1/n)

@historikerinnen @histodons @earlymodern

@emdiplomacy@hcommons.social avatar

According to Cario-Ivernizzi Spanish historiography continues to suffer from a lack of discourse surrounding its cultural history in general and with literary studies in particular, this is also reflected in new diplomatic .

However, historians specialised in Spanish continue to take steps forward in the field, not only with regard to the exchange of gifts but also gradually incorporating the analytical category of gender.

The career paths of Spanish & Portguese have gained more attention in research only recently.

By placing more of a focus on integrating the activities of both official ambassadors and informal agents into diplomatic studies in the future, we will be able to obtain a more complete understanding of Spanish and European diplomacy in the era. (6/6)

12 Helmer Helmers/Nina Lamal: Dutch Diplomacy in the Seventeenth Century: An Introduction

Here we go again! It is our great pleasure to introduce to you two of our wonderful authors: @helmer and @NinaLamal both of them very well know to the -community .They are both part of the print team at the Dutch Academy of Sciences, with Helmers being the project leader. Here they are looking for the role of the public and especially the importance of print for diplomacy. Both published extensively on and on Dutch political culture, e.g., Helmers's article on public diplomacy in the Republic.

https://doi.org/10.1080/0268117X.2021.1924988

Lamall co-edited a special issue in The Seventeenth Century Journal on public and cultural diplomacy in Europe together with Klaas van Gelder

One central problem that resulted from the federal nature of the republic was secrecy: How could one keep a secret with so many actors involved? This was almost a mission impossible, although one tried several measures such as an oath of secrecy to deal with the problem.

When dealing with Dutch you inevitably come across two other big issues: the Protestant character of Dutch and the importance of trade and commercial interests. For @helmers_h and @NinaLamal these are not contradictory interests. However, they argue that “commerce, geopolitics, and protestantism were perfectly reconcilable”. (4/5)

So who would be better to write the article on the development of than these two!?! This is a particular challenge, not only because there’s an astonishing lack of overviews on Dutch diplomacy, but also because Dutch diplomacy held a peculiar position in international relations. Being a young republic its rise within the international system seems astounding, while at the same time giving the Dutch a special status, being a republic among all these monarchies. The federal nature of the Dutch republic was not only irritating to foreign monarchical powers, but also complicated the organisation of , a topic that is far too often ignored by modern research, though @helmer and @NinaLamal stress its importance for Dutch .

Finally, @helmer and @NinaLamal argue that it is important to analyse #Dutch #emdiplomacy not only in its European context, but in its global dimension. The East India Company (#VOC) and its growing importance in #Asia played an important role in the rise of the Dutch republic. Unfortunately, both dimesions – the European and the global one – are far too often dealt seperately with by modern research. A problem that is generally true for research on #earlymodern diplomacy.

This leads to an overarching problem of how to competently connect national, European and global perspectives on diplomacy without blurring the focus. A question to be discussed elsewhere. (5/5)

Christmas also means having to think about the right outfit for job Christmas parties, pre-Christmas get-togethers with friends and celebrations with the family - the Christmas jumper is not always appreciated everywhere. Also had to think about how to dress themselves. (1/3)

In representatives of republics were still the odd one out compared to monarchies causing all kinds of potential problems, as this examples shows.
