Excerpt from Renaissance Diplomacy The diplomacy of this period assumed its characteristic form between 1420 and 1530 in a time which we all call the Renais sance, however we may differ about the limits of the term. Resi dent embassies, the distinguishing feature, were an Italian invention. They were fully developed in Italy by the 14505 and spread thence, like other Renaissance innovations, to the rest of Europe around 1500. And like other Renaissance innovations, they continued to develop along the lines laid down throughout the period which ended in 1914, so that their first stage may also properly be called the beginning of modern diplomacy. The new Italian institution of permanent diplomacy was drawn into the service of the rising nation-states, and served, like the standing army of which it was the counterpart, at once to nourish their growth and to foster their idolatry. It still serves them and must go on doing SO as long as nation-states survive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
