Ceremonial Entries, Municipal Liberties and the Negotiation of Power in Valois France, 1328-1589

Drawing on extensive research, he shows that ceremonial entries lay at the heart of how the state functioned in later medieval and Renaissance France. Readership: All those interested in the history of later medieval and Renaissance France, as well as those interested in the pre-modern.
