Looks at perceptions and representations of Philip IV, Spain's 'Planet King', and his government during the seventeenth-century General Crisis in Europe, wars, revolutions and a sovereign debt crisis. Scholars associate Philip's reign with decline, decadence, stagnation and adversity; yet the cultural and artistic achievements led it to be dubbed 'the' Golden Age. Examines Philip's kingship and how he and his courtiers used art/ceremony to project an image of strength.

Hardback. Etat : New. Did Spain fall into decline or flourish in the seventeenth century?This edited collection looks at perceptions and representations of Philip IV, Spain's 'Planet King', and his government against the backdrop of the seventeenth-century General Crisis in Europe, wars, revolutions and a sovereign debt crisis. Scholars often associate Philip's reign (1621-1665) with decline, decadence, crisis, stagnation and adversity (as did many contemporaries); yet the glittering cultural and artistic achievements (enhanced by his patronage) of the period led it to be dubbed 'the' Golden Age. The book analyses these contradictions, examining Philip's own understanding of kingship and how he and his courtiers used art and ceremony to project an image of strength, tradition, culture and prestige, while, at the same time, the empire grappled with revolts in Europe and falling trade with its New World colonies.
