PRELIMINARY REMARKS.
THE series of Tables and Lists here supplied consists, in the first instance, of Genealogical Tables of the sovereign families of European and certain other countries, together with Lists of elected potentates, within the period treated in The Cambridge Modern History. To these are added Genealogical Tables of certain noble houses, with Lists of chief ministers of great States, and of governors of important dependencies and colonies, within the same period. Finally, Lists are given of English (and British) Parliaments and of Imperial Diets, together with one or two lists of a special kind adverted to below.
These Tables and Lists are primarily intended as aids in the use of The Cambridge Modern History ; and no pretence is made that every one of them is complete in itself. It is, however, hoped that they will be found to supply the information likely to be required by a large proportion of students of modern history, and that no personage of any historical importance has been passed by in the table or list where his or her name ought to find a place. The Tables and Lists should throughout be used in conjunction with the General Index.
Among the Genealogical Tables are included those of various families which were prominent in European Succession questions, or took a leading part in the civil and religious wars of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Room has been found for Tables of certain other families of which various members are not easily identifiable in the usual books of reference Thus, several notable Irish clans are given. On the other hand, it has not been thought necessary to include Tables of wellknown houses in the English and the Scottish nobility, which may be traced without difficulty in peerages or other handbooks. The Howard, Douglas, and Campbell families have, however, been exceptionally introduced, in order to draw attention to their political alliances ; and, on much the same grounds, certain of the great ministerial families of the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries have been included. The Reding Table, which has been placed by the side of that of the De Retz family for the sake of convenience only, is intended to show a connexion not usually noticed.
As to order of sequence, the Tables and Lists have, so far as possible, been arranged under the heads of the countries to which they severally relate, beginning in each division with the British Empire. Here, the governors of the more important colonies only are given, the lists beginning ordinarily from the date when representative or responsible ministerial government was first set on foot in the several colonies.
In the case of the German Genealogical Tables selection has not been easy, owing to the large number of sovereign families ; so far as possible, preference has been given to those of which prominent members are mentioned in the History. The Spanish Tables likewise required much compression, owing to exigencies of space. The identification of individuals is peculiarly difficult here, occasionally in consequence of a form of Spanish pride, which showed itself in the systematic suppression, in family genealogies, of members of the family who had " disgraced " it. Spanish titles usually descended to daughters as well as to sons; and records often only date from the creation of the Grandees of Spain onwards.
An enumeration of the works used in the compilation of the Genealogical Tables and for certain of the Lists would be in some respects misleading, but it may be of service to the student to direct his attention, among more recent publications, to A. Cohn's revised edition of T. G. Voigtel's Stammtafeln der Geschichte der europäischen Staaten, of which unfortunately only Vol. i (Germany and the Netherlands) has appeared (Brunswick, 1871) ; to Fernández de Bethencourt's Historia genealógica y heráldica de la Monarquía Española (Vols, i-viii, Madrid, 1897-1910, in progress) ; to Burgos' Blazon de España (Madrid, 1853-60); and to P. Litta's Famiglie Celebri Italiane (Milan, 1819 sqq., in progress). J. Hübner's venerable Genealogische Tabellen, 4 vols. (1733-66) with Supplements (Copenhagen, 1822-4), have been put largely under contribution, together with Koch's Tables Généalogiques des Maisons souveraines de l'Europe (Strassburg, 1780), especially useful for Italy and France, and L. Moréri's Grand Dictionnaire historique, particularly in the Spanish edition, 8 vols., Paris, 1753.
The list of English Parliaments has been compiled from the data in the Journals of the two Houses (which often supplement each other), the Statutes of the Realm, and the Calendars of State Papers, compared with C. H. Parry's The Parliaments and Councils of England (1839) and other authorities.
The List of Congresses and Conferences has been confined mainly to formal gatherings of plenipotentiaries of the chief European States, or of particular States negotiating with one another as to terms of peace and other objects of common interest ; but a few meetings between sovereigns mentioned in the earlier portions of this History, and a few meetings of representatives of particular opinions or interests in recent times, have been exceptionally included.
The List of Leagues and Alliances is essentially a selected list. It might, of course, have been extended almost indefinitely in many periods of Modern History between the fifteenth and the twentieth century ; the guiding consideration has in each case been the relative historical importance of the league or alliance mentioned, and its consequent mention in this work. Confederations of States formed on the basis of a written constitution have been consistently omitted.
No List of General Councils has been inserted, the number of Councils acknowledged as such by the Western Church at large from the fifteenth century onwards being so small that an enumeration of them seemed unnecessary. On the other hand, a List of Secularised Bishoprics seemed desirable, in view of the difficulty in following the main territorial changes involved. It has not however proved possible to include the large list of Abbots and Abbesses of princely rank ; the dates of the secularisation of their dominions may easily be ascertained from C. Wolff's Die unmittelbaren Theile des ehemaligen römisch-deutschen Kaiserreiches, etc. (Berlin, 1873), or from other sources.
The Lists of Congresses and Conferences and of Leagues and Alliances are expressly intended to be selections only ; from the former, Religious Colloquies have been excluded.
Finally, the List of Universities has been restricted to Universities proper ; single Faculties as well as University Colleges, Academies, and similar institutions providing higher instruction being, for want of space, excluded. The list does not include Universities founded before 1450. Among the Universities of the United States of America, those are enumerated which report to the United States Bureau of Education and are included in its lists. Some of the more important Academies and Societies founded for the advance of learning and research are mentioned in Chapter xxiii of Vol. v of this History.
Titles borne and offices held by persons mentioned in the Tables or Lists have been inserted only in so far as they seemed necessary for the purpose of identification. Fuller descriptions will often be found in the General Index, or in the Indexes of particular volumes.
The spelling of names conforms so far as possible to the rules adopted in the compilation of the General Index, in view of the precedents set by the History itself. Christian names are Anglicised or left in their foreign form as in the Indem and the History, and foreign surnames are spelt as they are spelt there. Titles are given in English where English equivalents exist ; in the case of French titles, they are given in French (Due, etc.) from the French Revolution onwards, when they ceased to be territorial and became honorific only.
In the Genealogical Tables,
Black type is used for crowned heads, Emperors and Kings, but not for those incidentally mentioned (e.g. as married) in Tables of other Houses.
Small capitals are used for succession of minor territorial potentates, as Electors, Archdukes, etc., and for titles of a branch line in the table, in brackets.
Explanatory indications (of various kinds) are given in italics.
Dates of accession are given only when necessary to avoid confusion; date of death alone is given when succession went from father to son, or from brother to brother, or is obvious without a date of accession.
A reference to another table (see e.g. Table 100) signifies that a line not shown in the Table containing the reference continues in the Table referred to ; or that there is some other special reason for the reference.
In the Tables and Lists use has been made of the following
