| Resumo: | The reign of the Valois Dukes of Burgundy (1363–1477) might, in retrospect, suggest a link between modern and medieval features of their rule, especially with respect to the crusade projects of Philipp the Good (1419–1467). These ambitions may seem like a late blossoming of medieval culture, in line with the arguments of Johan Huizinga, that does not quite fit the historiographical narrative of the evolving Burgundian state. Instead of picturing Philipp the Good as a fifteenth-century Don Quixote, or as a precursor to the »last knight«, Emperor Maximilian I of the Holy Roman Empire, this book focuses on the political dimensions of his ostentatious crusading ambitions as part of the Burgundian struggle for a higher status among the hierarchy of European powers.
This study examines the crusading discourse at the Burgundian court through an analysis of three voluminous treatises written by bishop Jean Germain († 1461), the first chancellor of Philipp’s Order of the Golden Fleece. It combines a discourse analytical perspective with a form of sequential analysis that is taken from qualitative social research and applies it to late medieval texts and miniatures. |
