Description

Dans les royaumes des Temps modernes, la vie d'un prince était affaire d'Etat, et l'on en suivait avec passion les étapes, de sa petite enfance à ses funérailles. Son destin était inséparable de celui des autres monarques, souvent ses parents. Les souverains constituaient ainsi une société fermée au sein de la chrétienté et entretenaient des relations cruciales : François Ier et Henri VIII rivalisèrent de faste au Camp du drap d'or ; Louis XIV rencontra son beau-père, le roi d'Espagne, sur l'île des Faisans ; l'empereur Joseph II voyagea incognito pour conseiller Marie-Antoinette et Louis XVI. Dans ce cercle des têtes couronnées, les rapports personnels définissaient les relations internationales, car ils signifiaient la guerre lorsque les monarques profitaient des crises de succession pour renforcer leur puissance, mais ils étaient également synonymes de paix lorsque les mariages princiers favorisaient les réconciliations. Rassemblant de multiples témoignages sur les grandes dynasties, ce livre offre un tableau coloré de cette société européenne des souverains, dans laquelle l'émulation, les rivalités et les conflits n'excluaient pas des liens solides et où les femmes tenaient un rôle essentiel, puisqu'elles assuraient la continuité d'une maison et l'avenir de la monarchie. Il dévoile en particulier les règles et les lois secrètes de ce monde à part. Au fil du temps, l'humilité du prince chrétien laissa la place à une savante mise en scène de la majesté royale, puis les princes des Lumières cherchèrent à s'affranchir du carcan du cérémonial et à se rapprocher de leurs sujets.
