« Qu'est-ce qu'un Hôtel à la fin du Moyen Âge ? », se demandait Ferdinand Lot en 1958. Près d'un demi-siècle plus tard, la question demeure. L'auteur tente d'y répondre en étudiant l'Hôtel des ducs d'Orléans, ces parents pauvres de la recherche historique, au XVe siècle. S'intéresser à leur entourage était un excellent moyen d'approcher au plus près ces oubliés de l'histoire : l'Hôtel prospère ou s'appauvrit avec le prince qu'il sert dans un même cycle de vie. Pour autant, cet ouvrage ne se veut pas une étude des d'Orléans mais bien celle de l'institution à leur service et des hommes qui la peuplent. Donnant de l'Hôtel une définition large, l'auteur a voulu mesurer l'importance politique d'une institution que l'on a trop longtemps cantonnée au seul rôle domestique. Indispensable pour saisir la réalité multiple de l'Hôtel, l'analyse prosopographique d'un groupe constitué de plus de 1 700 officiers est complétée par une étude biographique de tous les détenteurs de l'office de chambellan, choisi parmi les très nombreux offices relevant de l'Hôtel (plus d'une centaine, aussi variés qu'écuyer d'écurie, gardien d'ours, galopin de cuisine ou échanson ... ). Véritables éminences grises du prince, les chambellans incarnent à eux seuls cette mutation qu'a connue l'institution au cours du XVe siècle et prouvent que, loin d'être une entité figée, aux traits immobiles, l'Hôtel vit, évolue, se transforme au fil du temps et des besoins princiers. Ce livre est la transposition d'une these soutenue en décembre 2001 auprès de l'Université Paris I par Elizabeth Gonzalez, agrégée et docteur en histoire.

This study is devoted to the Neo-Assyrian royal household as it emerges from the available cuneiform sources. It addresses the functions as well as the conditions of life and work of the royal household personnel. It clarifies which types of officials, professionals and other employees were active within or on behalf of the royal household. What were their tasks, and what was their position within the royal household and in relation to the king and his family? What departments were in place, and who were the managers? What was the role of lower-ranking personnel within this system? The study also investigates the social and cultural background of the personnel as well as their professional life, including their financial means, the quantity and type of their remuneration, and their career progression. Envisaged also as reference book, the book provides a prosopographical catalogue of the wide range of personnel discussed. As the personal household of the sovereign and the administrative and political centre of the empire, this study of the royal household opens up the immediate environment of the king and his family, but also to the governmental apparatus of the empire as a whole.

La Corte y las Casas Reales resultaron fundamentales en la organización política de las Monarquías modernas. Sin duda, Borgoña resultó de especial relevancia en la gestación de dicho proceso, pues su Casa Ducal adquirió una perfección reconocida por el resto de monarquías del momento. Dicho servicio a la borgoñona llegó a la Monarquía Hispana a través de Felipe I, consiguiendo imponerse a las Casas menos desarrolladas de Aragón y Castilla y convirtiéndose en la Casa de una Monarquía Universal.El presente libro pretende situar a la Casa de Borgoña de los Habsburgo hispanos en el papel nuclear que tuvo en la gestación de la Monarquía Hispánica. Al mismo tiempo, nos permite ser conscientes de que el estudio de la Historia Moderna no se ha agotado, ante la necesidad de explicar la historia de las Monarquías modernas europeas a través del análisis de la Corte y las Casas Reales.

In this volume, the authors bring fresh approaches to the subject of royal and noble households in medieval and early modern Europe. The essays focus on the people of the highest social rank: the nuclear and extended royal family, their household attendants, noblemen and noblewomen as courtiers, and physicians. Themes include financial and administrative management, itinerant households, the household of an imprisoned noblewoman, blended households, and cultural influence. The essays are grounded in sources such as records of court ceremonial, economic records, letters, legal records, wills, and inventories. The authors employ a variety of methods, including prosopography, economic history, visual analysis, network analysis, and gift exchange, and the collection is engaged with current political, sociological, anthropological, gender, and feminist theories.
