In the medieval period, the monarch was seen as the embodiment of
the community of his kingdom, the body politic. And while we've
long since shed that view, it nonetheless continues to influence
our understanding of contemporary politics. This book offers
thirteen case studies from premodern and contemporary Europe that
demonstrate the process through which political corporations-bodies
politic-were and continue to be constructed and challenged. Drawing
on history, archaeology, literary criticism, and art history, the
contributors survey a wide geographical and chronological spectrum
to offer a panoramic view of these dynamic political entities.
