William Paget and the late-Henrican polity, 1543-1547
No full textThis thesis explores the late-Henrican polity through the archive and perspective of William
Paget, Henry VIII's secretary at the end of his reign. Paget's papers as secretary (1543-1547), that
form the basis of the thesis, are an extensive, unique and relatively under-used source. From this
starting-point Paget's role as secretary is explored and he is revealed as the personal servant of
the king, whose natural environment was the court. As such he was an influential source of
counsel and perhaps the key patronage-broker at court. In this context Paget also had a significant
influence over the operation of the dry stamp at the end of the reign. Equally, Paget's role in
shaping the function of the secretary and his relations with the recently formed privy council was
of considerable importance, providing the template for later Tudor secretaries.
Diplomacy in the uncertain world of the 1540s was one of Paget's primary concerns and his
priorities can be seen as trying to provide security and stability for the realm. This is revealed not
only in his 'Consultation' of August 1546 but also in his diplomacy with the French, the
Schmalkaldic League and the Papacy. In this he sometimes found himself at odds with the king
and leading a privy council united in a desire for peace.
Politically Paget has traditionally been cast as an ambitious politique, the 'master of practices'
and part of the earl of Hertford's reform party. Whilst acknowledging Paget's close relations with
Hertford this thesis questions the factional interpretation of the last years of the reign and argues
that the predominant concern of Paget and his fellow privy councillors was a peaceful succession
in which unanimity rather than conflict was the key-note
Correspondance du cardinal Jean Du Bellay, tome III (1537-1547)
No full textCommencée en 1969 et continuée en 1973, la publication de la Correspondance du cardinal Jean Du Bellay a été longuement interrompue jusqu’à ce que l’élaboration du tome III ait pu reprendre à partir de 2004 grâce à l’achèvement d’un long mandat politique, à des forces nouvelles et au soutien du Fonds national suisse de la recherche scientifique. Avec le présent volume s’achève donc la publication de cette correspondance pendant le règne de François Ier. Nous avons estimé utile d’ajouter un supplément pour les lettres écartées des précédents volumes ou omises et d’étendre l’index des noms de personnes et de lieux à Ambassades de Jean Du Bellay. La Première ambassade (septembre 1527-févévrier 1529), correspondance diplomatique publiée avec une introduction par V.-L. BOURRILLY et P. de VAISSIÈRE, Paris, A. Picard, 1905 (Archives de l’histoire religieuse de la France).
Quant aux lettres contemporaines du règne de Henri II, elles ont été écrites pour la plupart au cours des deux longs séjours de Jean Du Bellay à Rome de 1547 à 1550 et de 1553 à sa mort. On en compte environ 800. L’établissement du texte et la rédaction des notes pour celles de 1547-1548 sont en cours, et le travail est accompli par les mêmes personnes et sous les mêmes auspices que le présent volume. L’intérêt marqué par le Fonds national suisse de la recherche scientifique et la jeunesse des collaborateurs sont des gages de continuité pour la publication prévue en deux volumes pour la période 1547-1553 et deux autres volumes pour les années 1553-1560

"The speciall men in every shere": the Edwardian regime, 1547-1553
No full textThis thesis examines clienteles during the reign of Edward VI, particularly those of the dukes of
Somerset and Northumberland, and the role of the county elite in political society in order to
reassess politics from the perspective of clientage. Edward's reign has not been extensively
studied from this perspective but work by Dr Adams, Professor Guy and others on other periods
provided the necessary context to reassess Edwardian politics. The aim was to investigate whether
the regime continued to rely on the same core within the county elite employed in the 1520s and
1530s and again in Elizabeth's reign. This has involved extensive archival research since 1996 (in
St Andrews, London and the Midlands). I have found that the privy council tried to foster a closer
working relationship with the county elite in order to maintain stability and prevent faction during
this period of minority government. The regime depended on the same core of gentlemen in the
shires to act as commissioners of the peace and to fill the other vital local offices. Even within this
group there was an inner-ring. This relationship was a two-way process and the clientage that
underpinned early modem society was central to it.
This study has also explored the extent to which Somerset's and Northumberland's clienteles were
involved in central and local government to reassess how much the dukes operated as courtcentred
or county-centred politicians. Both men dominated government in turn and their clienteles
were vitally important. These were made up of their servants, family, friends and clients and were
mutual self-support groups that reinforced their political and social status. Although principally
intended as a political study, this research has come to incorporate military and local history. It
has looked at how clienteles operated during periods of stability and crisis (the activities of Lord
Seymour of Sudeley, the 1549 rebellions, the October coup, the second fall of Somerset and the
succession crisis in 1553) in order to demonstrate how they really functioned

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
