2 Louis XIV s Childhood Nominally made King at age 5 Real power rested in the hands of Cardinal Mazarin Revolts against Mazarin called the Fronde threatened Louis life Louis XIV s Grand Style Louis the Sun King Was Louis court a triumph of style over substance?

New scale and feel to political life looming presence of the state 2
3 Objectives of the Absolutist State To Secure Obedience To Exert Control over Economic Life To Protect its Territory and the Expansion of its Claims To Create a State Bureaucracy To Enlist the Service of the Church --Revocation of the Edict of Nantes (1685) -- One King, One Law, One Faith To Employ Culture to Exalt the State -- Objectives of the Absolutist State To Gain the Loyalty of the Nobility Nobles of the Sword : The Old Aristocracy with landed wealth Nobles of the Robe : The New Aristocracy with commercial ties Implicit and structured social inequality Features of Baroque Planning Center of the City was the Palace Broad, straight avenues radiated out from the Palace Along these avenues were built the important government buildings Aristocratic passion for parading along these avenues 3
4 Creating a Spectacle To be seen was the supreme social duty of the nobility To shine at court was to keep the rest of the world at a distance The monarch created the spectacle, or theater, for this social drama Versailles: A Model Palace of Baroque Absolutism You gaze, you stare, you try to understand that it is real, that it is on earth, that it is not the Garden of Eden --Mark Twain Versailles 4

Life at Versailles Tedious and extremely expensive Only those at Court had any influence with Louis XIV Costume parties, masked balls, and gossip The drama of flirtation and the public role of the bedroom The bedroom will be replace by the salon 7
8 G. An Imaginary World Versailles was the great theater upon which the drama of absolute power was staged. Ideas were treated as realities the make believe world of the powerful and rich. Real people, real cities, and real problems were treated as if they were imaginary. The Emerging Culture of Capitalism The difference between mercantilism and capitalism France under Colbert a case study of mercantilism Orderliness and rationalization reflected the themes of Baroque urban planning France Leads Europe in the Arts Three unities Single plot Single setting Single day Comedy Moliere Tragedy Cornielle & Racine Patronage 8

11 Impressions of Peter Bishop Burnet, Peter the Great 1698 He is a man of very hot temper, soon inflamed and very brutal in his passion. He raises his natural heat by drinking much brandy, which he rectifies himself with great application. He is subject to convulsive motions all over his body, and his head seems to be affected with these. He wants not capacity, and has a larger measure of knowledge than might be expected from his education, which was very indifferent. A want of judgment, with an instability of temper, appear in him too often and too evidently.
