In Absolutist Attachments, Chloe Hogg uncovers the affective and
media connections that shaped Louis XIV's absolutism. Studying
literature, painting, engravings, correspondence, and the emerging
periodic press, Hogg diagnoses the emotions that created
absolutism's feeling subjects and publics. Louis XIV's subjects
explored new kinds of affective relations with their sovereign,
joining with the king in acts of aesthetic judgment, tender
feeling, or the "newsiness" of emerging print news culture. Such
alternative modes of adhesion countered the hegemonic model of
kingship upheld by divine right, reason of state, or corporate
fidelities and privileges with subject-driven attachments and
practices. Absolutist Attachments discovers absolutism's
alternative political and cultural legacy-not the spectacle of an
unbound king but the binding connections of his subjects.
