Using dedications to Charles VI to convey political messages: Honorat Bovet, Philippe de Mézières, Christine de Pizan and Pierre Salmon

Abstract The dedication of four French-language advice books to Charles VI of France (r. 1380–1422), two just after the king’s declaration of personal rule and two during the period dominated by his mental illness, was a strategic choice by the books’ authors. Honorat Bovet, Philippe de Mézières, Christine de Pizan and Pierre Salmon used these dedications to convey political messages not only to the king but also to his powerful male relatives. The dedications, the way the manuscripts represented Charles both textually and visually and the way the texts urged Charles’ relatives to support Charles and each other, all place the king at the centre of the political conversation. Casting both themselves and the king’s relatives as important contributors to French political life, the writers used the role of Charles as imagined reader of the books to urge his male relatives to prioritize the needs of king and kingdom above their own.

Einharts Libellus de Psalmis

The article deals with the origin and text of the abbreviated psalter in the manuscript of Vercelli, Biblioteca Capitolare 149. When Marco Vattasso first published a study and partial edition of the text in 1915, he had been convinced of the authorship of Charlemagne's biographer Einhart and headlined «Del „Libellus de psalmis“ di Einardo felicemente ritrovato»; about 60 years later Pierre Salmon edited a more complete text of the abbreviation but denied the ascription to Einhart. Salmons results will be reexamined and on that occasion the structure, sources, transmission and testimonies of the Libellus de psalmis will be described. As a result, the authorship of Einhart seems to be confirmed and - paying attention to the prayers attached in the manuscript - a new edition is recommended.

Portrait de Charles VI en Nabuchodonosor. Positionnements rhétoriques dans les Dialogues de Pierre Salmon et Charles VI

Crapelet, to date the only publisher of the Dialogues de Pierre Salmon et Charles VI in 1833, was suprised at the apparent indulgence with which the king tolerated the “impertinence” of his counselor, who goes as far as to liken him to Nebuchadnezzar, a king who, like him, was mad. This tolerance was attributed to the king’s madness. An attempt is made here to correct the presuppositions of this reading, which today still continues to influence the perception of the text and its iconography. Our approach falls within the pragmatics of a statement : the madness of the king, the reality of which cannot be contested, takes on in reality a strategic role in the rhetorical device which underlies the whole manuscript. What to Crapelet was a suspect comparison occurs in a topic of deliberative rhetoric that presupposes the Prince’s humility and wisdom ; the presumed weakness of the Prince is thus inverted into royal humility taking part in moral conversion and political reform.

Making Memories for a Mad King: Illustrating the "Dialogues" of Pierre Salmon

This article reexamines the visual cycle found in Pierre Salmon's Dialogues (Paris, Bibliotheque nationale de France, MS fr. 23279) and its role as a memory aid for both its putative audience, the mentally ill King Charles VI of France, and its actual audience, the expanded group of relatives and advisers who in fact governed France in the early fifteenth century. It suggests that Salmon selected and guided skilled illuminators working in the Mazarine and Cite des Dames styles to create a series of emotionally charged images with a single goal: to create powerful mental pictures that would structure the Dialogues and shape its reception at court to make manifest his loyalty, and the loyalty of others, to the king.

Pierre Salmon's Advice for a King

This article analyzes the relationship between text and image in the earliest manuscript (Paris, Bibliotheque Nationale, MS fr. 23279) of the Reponses a Charles VI et Lamentation au roi sur son etat by Pierre Salmon, a secretary to Charles VI. Salmon's political treatise is made up of three distinct parts which differ markedly from one another. Scholars who have studied the Reponses have done so fragmentarily and have neglected the pictorial evidence that guides an understanding of the text. This study considers the manuscript as a whole, analyzing the pictures, first in narrow relation to their text and to each other and second, in relation to the broader framework of French politics in the early fifteenth century. It reveals that the repetition of scenes of presentation and dialogue that frame the text, and the seemingly random distribution of eight full page miniatures were carefully orchestrated to echo and, in one particular case, amplify, the sense of crisis and resolution that the text presents.

Vertical Restraints as Contract Enforcement Mechanisms

IT is now generally recognized that there are many cases of vertical restraints that do not fit the standard "consumer free riding on special services" theory.1 For example, the widespread use of resale price maintenance in the marketing of brand name clothing cannot be explained as inducing retailers to supply services such as dressing rooms. It is unlikely that consumers must be prevented from trying on clothing free of charge at a full-service retailer before purchasing the clothing at a discount from retailers who do not supply dressing rooms. A number of authors recently have attempted to correct this deficiency in the standard theory by expanding the type of services that vertical restraints may induce retailers to supply and the corresponding retailer free-riding problems.2 The standard economic analysis of how vertical restraints operate to induce desired retailer behavior has remained essentially unchanged, however. The standard analysis assumes that when it is not feasible for a manufacturer to write explicit, court-enforceable contracts with retailers for the supply of particular services, the only alternative mechanism manufacturers can use to induce the supply of desired services is to increase the direct return retailers receive from consumers when those

The Tiebout Model: Bring Back the Entrepreneurs

Several recent papers in the literature have reformulltlated the nature of equilibrium in IFiebout mo(lels by alSSlIuim`ing an exogenous number of communities, inflexible commullity l)OU(alaries, anti in pirticular inactive lantlowners and developers. Ihis paper argues that these assumptions are unwarranted and reSul1t iIn in(eterminate solutions and incorrect analyses. Determinate lOn1g-rUn1 solutions require equilibrium in intercommui land markets, which in turn require giving lantlowners and/or entrepreneurial (leveloelers an active role in the models. The role of politics in these models and its juxtaposition with entrepreneurial activities are also analyzed.
