This book will be the first to deeply analyze the Swedish court and
monarchy through a longue duree perspective to show the crucial
role of the court in maintaining a relationship between the
monarchy and nobility throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth
centuries. Sweden offered a different type of monarchy in
comparison to the more often studied French and British monarchies.
Sweden's court system successfully managed several coups and
upheavals and maintained strong royal power throughout many
transitions. Studying the Swedish model offers insights into how
courts functioned in European principalities in general by
providing a resilient and flexible framework for royal authority in
tandem with the nobility. Based on extensive research conducted in
the Swedish National Archives, the Palace Archives, and the Royal
Library, the book presents some never-before published case studies
and materials that drive the impact of court studies on many
different areas of research, including gender studies, political
science, and art history.
