Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton University, 2005.

This dissertation studies the vital role that family networks played in the conquest and administration of the Spanish empire. At the end of the fifteenth century, members of Fernandez de Cordoba lineage of families began to leave their local home base in Andalusia to serve as military officers and governors in Spain's expanding territories in Europe and the Mediterranean. Several generations spent governing North Africa and Navarre, as well as activities in Toledo and Granada severed these families from their ancestral lands. At the same time, the strenuous pressures of imperial careers also transformed traditional marriage and reproduction patterns of sons and daughters. These career and internal structural changes internationalized the families' mentality, an orientation further encouraged by their establishment of new social and clientele relations with local individuals across imperial territories.

520 $a This dissertation studies the vital role that family networks played in the conquest and administration of the Spanish empire. At the end of the fifteenth century, members of Fernandez de Cordoba lineage of families began to leave their local home base in Andalusia to serve as military officers and governors in Spain's expanding territories in Europe and the Mediterranean. Several generations spent governing North Africa and Navarre, as well as activities in Toledo and Granada severed these families from their ancestral lands. At the same time, the strenuous pressures of imperial careers also transformed traditional marriage and reproduction patterns of sons and daughters. These career and internal structural changes internationalized the families' mentality, an orientation further encouraged by their establishment of new social and clientele relations with local individuals across imperial territories.
520 $a This project refocuses attention on empires from collections of geographic territories or governing institutions to the human activities and experiences that connected disparate peoples, cultures, and places. Examining the transition from local to imperial identities, I propose that the international careers, networks, and mentalities of families constituted the blood that coursed through the veins of the imperial organism. Mobile families traveled across many territories during their careers and my study spans different European and Mediterranean spaces as I follow in their footsteps. At the same time, investigating how imperial expansion changed the families' life cycle patterns over generations also bridges the late-medieval/early modern divide.
