This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles De Bourbon, High Constable of France, the Great Condottiere His eldest son Louis followed in his steps and greatly distinguished himself in the service of Louis XII. Was wounded at the siege of Capua and died in the prime of his noble youth. His younger brother, Charles, thus became the male heir of the Bourbon line; a position doubly assured to him later by his marriage with Suzanne de Bourbon, the heiress of the elder branch of the family. From his mother Chiara Gonzaga of Mantua, the young Prince inherited the warlike spirit and genius of a race of Condottieri at the early age of seventeen he followed Louis XII. To the siege of Genoa and already showed signs of the courage and skill which were to make him so famous in later days. At the height of his greatness and glory, we find Charles de Bourbon scarcely second in position to the King himself; holding his own Court and Parliament in the Capital of his great dominions, and so splendid in his magnificence that, at the Field of the Cloth of Gold, Henry VIII. Is said to have exclaimed: If that noble were a subject of mine his head would not remain long upon his shoulders. The Duc de Bourbon was at the very summit of his pride and prosperity when he was smitten from his high estate, and there came upon him that great and terrible downfall - one of the most striking tragedies of history.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first general biography of Charles de Bourbon, Constable of France (1490-1527), to appear for some time. The events of Bourbon's life form a dramatic and compelling story, centering on his treasonable plot to dismember France in 1523; his victory at Pavia and capture of Francois I in 1525; and his command of the imperial troops who sacked Rome in 1527 The narrative, illuminated by the findings of modern scholarship, is integrated into the broader context of French and international history. The biographical idiom is used to examine the evolution of French social and political institutions in the first decades of the sixteenth century, the strains induced in the French and Hapsburg monarchies by the long struggle for primacy in Italy, and the rapid transformation of war and diplomacy in the period."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Coronation Book of Charles V of France, a de luxe manuscript made in 1365 is of considerable historical and art-historical importance. Its text des- cribes step by step te coronation ceremony of Charles V and Jeanne of Bour- bon, and its cycle of 38 miniatures illustrates in the greatest details the kingmaking and queenmaking ritual which was seen to constitute an expression of the political agenda of this Valois ruler. The author looks at the poli- tical and religious significance of coronation ritual and examines the way in which a changed conception of the monarchy (one in which the electors, members of the church and secular estates are given unprecedented promi- nence) is reflected in an entirely new pictorial realism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a fine day, in the early part of June, 1523, a splendid cavalcade, consisting of three hundred well-mounted gentlemen, habited in velvet, and each having a massive gold chain round his neck, entered the Forest of Fontainebleau from the side of Nemours, and proceeded along an avenue bordered by noble trees towards the palace. For the most part, the persons composing this brilliant troop were young and handsome cavaliers, whose looks and haughty bearing proclaimed their high birth, but there were some veterans among them, whose bronzed visages and martial deportment showed that they had served in many a hard campaign. But all were equally richly attired in the sumptuous livery of their leaderÑblack velvet embroidered with goldÑand their pourpoints and the housings of their steeds bore a princely badge, woven in gold, together with a sword wrought in the same material, which denoted that their lord held the office of Constable, one of the highest military dignities of France. The leader of the troop, a very striking personage, whom it was impossible to regard without interest, was a man of large stature, with handsome, strongly-marked features, very stern in expression. An ample chest and muscular throat indicated the possession of great personal strength, but his frame, though stalwart, was admirably proportioned, and it was easy to discern, from the manner in which he bestrode his steedÑa powerful block chargerÑthat he was a consummate horseman. His looks and deportment were those of one accustomed to command. If not absolutely young, he was in the very prime of life, being just thirty-three. His complexion was swarthy, his eyes dark and piercing, and his beard, which he wore exceedingly long, black as jet. His firm-set mouth betokened inflexible resolution, while his towering forehead indicated great sagacity. Though he was magnificently arrayed, his bearing showed that he was not one of the silken gallants who thronged the gay and chivalrous court of Fran�ois I., and who delighted in the banquet, the masquerade, or the tournayÑbut a hardy warrior, who had displayed prowess in the field, and could lead hosts to conquest.
