Un magnífico ensayo sobre el fascinante papel del valido
en la Europa de la era moderna.
En los siglos XVI y XVII observadores ingleses, españoles, franceses y de otras naciones europeas se mostraban alarmados ante la creciente influencia de los validos, favoritos o ministros-favoritos. Estos personajes parecían estar usurpando competencias y obligaciones normalmente ejercidas por los monarcas.
En este libro pionero, un grupo de ilustres historiadores internacionales -entre los que figuran Laurence Brockliss, Jonathan Brown, John H. Elliott, Antonio Feros, Marc Fumaroli y I.A.A. Thompson- analiza la figura de los favoritos y su ascenso en Europa.
Los diversos colaboradores de esta obran ahondan en el fenómeno de estos poderosos personajes, indagando más allá de las ya conocidas vidas de algunos de ellos como el duque de Buckingham, el cardenal Richelieu o el conde-duque de Olivares. ¿Fue su aparición en el escenario europeo simple coincidencia? ¿Cómo puede explicarse este hecho? ¿Cómo lograban y retenían su dominio sobre los resortes del poder? ¿Cuál era su relación con su regio señor? ¿Y por qué optaron gradualmente los soberanos por gobernar sin favoritos en las postrimerías del siglo XVII?
