Die Este und das Heilige Römische Reich im langen 16. Jahrhundert In deutscher Sprache. pages. Seller Inventory # BN189681
Elena Taddei examines the so far little researched, sometimes conflict-ridden relationships between the dukes of Ferrara, Modena and Reggio from the northern Italian princely family of the Este and the empire, i.e. the emperors and selected imperial princes of the 16th century in a political, social and cultural-historical context. As one of the oldest Italian noble families, the Estonians ruled the papal fiefdom of Ferrara from 1240 to 1597 and the imperial fiefs of Modena and Reggio from 1288 to 1796. As ""servants of two masters"" they desperately pursued a policy of equilibrium between Pope, Emperor and other powers of the early modern period. The rich cultural transfer to and from the Empire points to their capillary network of diplomatic representation, kinship, friendship and patronage and is also a yardstick for the importance and perception of the emperor, empire and imperial institutions in Italy.
