« Mais ce prince estoit un chef-d'oeuvre de la nature; ce qu'il avoit de moins admirable, c'estoit d'être l'homme du monde le mieux fait et le plus beau. Ce qui le mettoit au-dessus des autres estoit une valeur incomparable, et un agréement dans son esprit, dans son visage et dans ses actions que l'on a jamais veu qu'à luy seul; il avoit un enjouement qui plaisoit également aux hommes et aux femmes, une adresse extraordinaire dans tous ses exercices, une manière de s'habiller qui estoit toujours suivie de tout le monde, sans pouvoir estre imitée, et enfin un air dans toute sa personne qui faisoit qu'on ne pouvoit regarder que luy dans tous les lieux où il paraissoit. » (Madame de La Fayette, La Princesse de Clèves, Droz, TLF 33, p. 10-11). Jacques de Savoie-Nemours, duc du Genevois (1531-1585), chef de la branche cadette légitime de la dynastie savoyarde, était cousin d’Emmanuel-Philibert duc de Savoie. La relation qu’ils entretinrent généra une source de prestige pour Jacques, en tant qu’acteur politique indépendant, autant qu’elle instaura une entrave permanente à sa liberté de manoeuvre. Homme de cour et chef de guerre parmi les plus illustres à la Renaissance, Jacques tenait en apanage le Genevois, duché qui, tout en symbolisant sa puissance dynastique, lui assurait les ressources nécessaires à ses activités militaires, politiques et lettrées, notamment à la cour de France. Matthew A. Vester retrace la fortune de Jacques de Savoie-Nemours au coeur d’un espace européen qui n’était normalement pas animé par des individus isolés, mais par les Maisons et leurs différents lignages, et dans lequel l’« Etat » ne jouait alors qu’un rôle politique secondaire.

One of the most brilliant courtiers and military leaders in Renaissance France, Jacques de Savoie, duke of Nemours, was head of the cadet branch of the house of Savoy, a dynasty that had ruled over a collection of lands in the Western Alps since the eleventh century. Jacques' cousin Emanuel Filibert, duke of Savoy and ruler of the Sabaudian lands, fought against Jacques, and each expanded their influence at the other's expense, while also benefitting from the other's position. This study examines the complex and rich relationship of the noble cousins that spanned the battlefields, bedchambers, courts, and backrooms of taverns from Paris to Turin to the frontiers between the Genevois and Geneva. Each prince played key roles in sixteenth-century European politics due to their individual and dynastic identities. Jacques' apanage of the Genevois was a virtual state-within-a-state, the institutional expression of a simultaneously competitive and cooperative relationship between two branches of a sovereign house. Here Matthew Vester provides a new picture of the nobility and of the European political landscape that moves beyond old views and taps into the unspoken cultural rules governing dynastic relations.
