    Aunque los contactos entre la Monarqu铆a espa帽ola y el ducado de Moscovia fueron tempranos y publicistas y literatos subrayaron las peculiaridades de sus territorios y su historia, solo a partir del reinado de Pedro I se la tuvo verdaderamente en cuenta, integr谩ndola ya definitivamente dentro de lo que se consideraba Europa. Sin embargo, la imagen culturalmente diferenciada de Rusia como un territorio que desborda los l铆mites de este continente se mantiene, estableci茅ndose una verdadera frontera interior que separa los grupos m谩s occidentalizados de una poblaci贸n apegada a sus viejas costumbres.

    The 芦camareras mayores禄 played a major role in Spanish courtesan life. They were at the core of the female personnel at the Royal house. They were privileged witnesses of the Queen鈥檚 personal life and zealous of her privacy, acting as filter between her and the outside world. They also instructed the Queen on the traditions of the Spanish monarchy and gave her advice on the different courtesan factions. Their appointment was therefore a political issue and they were normally mature women, most of them widows, chosen among higher nobility. Their biography is especially interesting to know their peculiarities as a group and to understand the complex social environment in which they lived

    The Royal Sites in times of Charles III

    Full text link
    Carlos III continu贸 practicando la costumbre de los desplazamientos a los reales sitios, que sus padres tomaron de los Austrias, pero introdujo cambios, tanto en la regularidad y duraci贸n de las estancias, como en quienes le acompa帽aban, ya que se desplaz贸 siempre con el conjunto de su familia. Ni nacimientos, ni defunciones variaron su ritmo, pero si lo hizo un acontecimiento pol铆tico: los motines contra Esquilache de 1766. Aunque los Reglamentos de 1749 y de 1761 contemplaban las Jornadas, la parte proporcional de las Reales Casas que deb铆a trasladarse qued贸 a la discrecionalidad de las jefaturas y de las necesidades del monarca y su familia. Tambi茅n se traslad贸 el gobierno, los secretarios del despacho, y una parte del personal de sus oficinas, as铆 como los representantes diplom谩ticos, ya que celebraban actos protocolarios, como la presentaci贸n de credenciales y se firmaban tratados. Todo lo cual aument贸 el coste de las jornadas y oblig贸 a abordar el problema de la escasez de alojamientos, lo que gener贸 un negocio de alquileres. En definitiva, el aumento del gasto y la misma disfuncionalidad de las cortes estacionales suscit贸 voces cr铆ticas, ante la falta de medidas correctorasCharles III continued practicing the habit of traveling to the royal sites, which his parents took from the Austrias, but introduced changes, both in the regularity and duration of the stays, and in those who accompanied him, since he always moved with the group of his family. Neither births nor deaths varied its pace, but a political event did: the riots against Esquilache in 1766. Although the Regulations of 1749 and 1761 contemplated the royal journeys, the proportional part of the Royal Houses that had to be moved was left to the discretion of the chiefs and the needs of the monarch and his family. Also the government, the secretaries of the Office, and a part of the personnel of their offices, as well as the diplomatic representatives moved, since they celebrated ceremonial acts, like the presentation of credentials and treaties were signed. All of which increased the cost of the journeys and forced to address the problem of housing shortages, which generated a rental business. In short, the increase in spending and the same dysfunctionality of the seasonal courts raised critical voices in the absence of corrective measure

    From Calligrapher Scrivener to Trained Clerk: Education, Career and Social Promotion of the Officers in the Secretar铆as del Despacho

    The bureaucratic habitus, like the judicial one, was a system of durable dispositions that disciplined the praxis and the representation of the actors. The object of this study is a group of bureaucrats who were to become the backbone of the administration, the officers of the different Secretar铆as de la Corte, men of pen and office. The staff of the Secretar铆as del Despacho, which was a fifty people collective at the beginning of the 18th century, tripled by the end of this century. They were recruited from within the administration, either from other institutions or through a clientelist procedure that presumed previous training. Their praxis was not learnt in Latin schools or universities, but through the almost mechanical practice of ordering, distributing and turning simple drafts into readable documents. Their careers show that, in order to succeed, they needed to acquire knowledge beyond formal expertise as well as the skill of making themselves 芦visible禄 inside and outside the office.El habitus burocr谩tico, como el judicial, es fruto de un sistema de disposiciones duraderas que disciplinaban la pr谩ctica y la representaci贸n de los actores. El objeto de este estudio es un grupo definido de bur贸cratas llamados a ser los verdaderos nervios de la administraci贸n, los oficiales, o los dependientes, de las distintas secretar铆as de la corte, hombres de pluma y oficina. El personal de las secretar铆as del despacho, un colectivo en torno a las 50 personas a comienzos del siglo xviii, incluidos subalternos, triplic贸 sus efectivos a finales del mismo, con un reparto que nunca fue del todo homog茅neo entre los distintos departamentos. Su reclutamiento proced铆a de la propia administraci贸n, bien directamente, tom谩ndolo de otras instituciones, especialmente las secretar铆as de los consejos, o a trav茅s de una captaci贸n clientelar que presum铆a el aprendizaje. Su praxis no se aprend铆a en los colegios de latinidad, ni en las universidades, sino a trav茅s del ejercicio casi mec谩nico de ordenar, repartir y hacer legible lo que, en muchos casos, eran poco m谩s que borradores o unos simples apuntamientos. Sus trayectorias muestran que, m谩s all谩 de las pericias formales imprescindibles, quienes quer铆an hacer carrera necesitaban aplicarse y adquirir otros dentro y fuera de la oficina

    Los estudios hist贸ricos sobre las mujeres en la Edad Moderna: estado de la cuesti贸n

    Resumen: El objetivo de este trabajo es reflexionar sobre el estado actual de la investigaci贸n sobre las mujeres en Espa帽a, en referencia exclusiva al periodo comprendido entre los siglos XV y XIX. Para ello, una vez establecidas las coordenadas historiogr谩ficas en las que se ubican los estudios sobre el periodo, se han tomado como referencia tres aspectos que se consideran fundamentales: el an谩lisis de la instituci贸n familiar y el papel de las mujeres en ella; el marco normativo y simb贸lico que regula su vida, as铆 como los cambios y las permanencias y, por 煤ltimo, algunos ejemplos de lo que deber铆a constituir una verdadera historia intelectual de las mujeres, entendida no como historia separada, sino inseparable del propio devenir de los tiempos modernos. Palabras clave: Mujeres en la Edad Moderna, mujeres espa帽olas, feminismos. Abstract: This article sets out to reflect upon the state of affairs of research into women in Spain, focusing exclusively on the period stretching from the XV to the XIX century. Having charted the historiographical map upon which studies into this period fall, three aspects will be discussed as key references: the analysis of the family institution and the role of women therein, the symbolic and normative framework that governs their lives, including changes and permanences, and finally examples of the due approach to constituting the intellectual history of women, i.e., not as a separate history, but as an integral part of the precursors of modern times. Key words: Women in the Middle Modern times, Spanish women, feminisms
