The Premodern Colloquium. Unter den Schutz Frankreichs: German Reception of French Subsidies in the Thirty Years War

Tryntje Helfferich, Ohio State University

This paper will discuss French monies and how the Germans understood them. I argue that subsidies were seen primarily as functional, as a means by which the German princes could raise troops, manage their supply and maintenance, and employ them to the mutual interest of the anti-Habsburg cause. And yet French subsidies and other monetary offerings were freighted with additional, and often contradictory, meanings.
