GermanAbstract
There was a special relationship between the papacy and the Swiss Confederacy in the early modern period. The "Romans" were not confronted with the usual monarchic-aristocratic structures. Taking a nuncio’s outside view provides revealing information. Galgano analyzes how the nuncios viewed Switzerland from 1586 to 1564 and provides future researchers with a valuable edition of their correspondence.
