Estudios de Historia Moderna en homenaje a la profesora Emilia Salvador Esteban
Recopilación de estudios que la comunidad universitaria dedica a la profesora Emilia Salvador Esteban, formada en la Universitat de València, donde ha ejercido el conjunto de su actividad profesional. Colaboradora de Joan Reglà, su investigación inicial se centró en el origen y desarrollo del capitalismo, por la que se la considera una de las mayores especialistas españolas. Tras la marcha de Joan Reglà, Emilia Salvador se convirtió en la continuadora de su labor. Su trayectoria investigadora ha evolucionado hacia la historia política, obra que ha contribuido al conocimiento del marco institucional de la Monarquía Hispánica, desde la perspectiva federalista de la Corona de Aragón. El enfoque de estos temas desde el ámbito valenciano ha permitido conocer mejor el proceso histórico de configuración de la personalidad diferenciada del País Valenciano.

The Sciences of Homosexuality in Early Modern Europe
The Sciences of Homosexuality in Early Modern Europe investigates early modern scientific accounts of same-sex desires and the shapes they assumed in everyday life. It explores the significance of those representations and interpretations from around 1450 to 1750, long before the term homosexuality was coined and accrued its current range of cultural meanings. This collection establishes that efforts to produce scientific explanations for same-sex desires and sexual behaviours are not a modern invention, but have long been characteristic of European thought. The sciences of antiquity had posited various types of same-sexual affinities rooted in singular natures. These concepts were renewed, ...
Rebellion and Diplomacy in Early Modern Europe
In the seventeenth century, riots, rebellions, and revolts flared around Europe. Concerned about their internal stability, many states responded by closely observing the violent upheavals that plagued their neighbors. Rebellion and Diplomacy in Early Modern Europe investigates how in this struggle for intelligence about internal discord, diplomats emerged as key information brokers and interpreters of Europe’s tumultuous political landscape. The contributions in this volume uncover how diplomatic actors interacted with rulers, opposition leaders, informers, media entrepreneurs, and different audiences in their efforts to understand, communicate, and draw lessons from the insurrections in their time. Rebellion and Diplomacy also examines how diplomats actively tried to shape the course of internal conflicts by managing the dissemination of news, supporting political factions at their court of residence, and even instigating violence. Covering different European regions from the Iberian Peninsula to Scandinavia and from the British Isles to the Carpathian Basin, the book will appeal to all students and researchers interested in early modern diplomacy, politics, and news cultures.
Spanning the Strait
Spanning the Strait: Studies in Unity in the Western Mediterranean brings together a multidisciplinary collection of essays that examines the deep connections that bound together the Iberian Peninsula and the Maghrib in the medieval and early modern periods. Six articles on topics ranging from the eighth-century slave trade to sixteenth-century apocalypticism trace and analyze movement, mutual influence and patterns shared in the face of political, religious, and cultural difference. By transcending traditional disciplinary and temporal divisions, this collection of essays highlights the long history of contact and exchange that united the two sides of the Strait of Gibraltar. A comprehensive introduction by the editors contextualizes the articles within the last half-century of scholarship and salient contemporary trends. Contributors are Adam Gaiser, Linda G. Jones, Hussein Fancy, S.J. Pearce, David Coleman, and Marya T. Green-Mercado.
