Reviews
That is not to deny the considerable value of this collection, not least in bringing some of the latest research on Habsburg Europe to an anglophone readership and in showing how that research might develop in the future. The collection's brief conclusion deliberately makes the case that this is in effect work in progress. By pointing out further directions for research, the editors remind us of the vitality of work on the Habsburgs as one of Europe's most powerful and dazzling dynasties, and of how much more there is to do.

In drawing attention to such deep structures of court life while acknowledging the flurry of politics, diplomacy and ceremonial, this collection makes an important contribution to our advancing understanding of the early modern court.
