Ratgebersituationen dienen textintern als Forum narrativer Herrschaftskritik und textextern als effektives transkulturelles Herrschaftsinstrument der Vormoderne.

The pre-modern exercise of power included seeking counsel. This applies to pre-modern Europe as well as to non-European societies. The present volume focuses on this specific counsellor-ruler situation and asks about methods of giving counsel, the means used to give counsel, criteria of legitimacy and competence of counsellors, and what influence proximity and distance between ruler and counsellor played on the question of whether the counsel was successful, i.e. whether the counsel was listened to.
