| | The Magnificent Fountain: Literary Patronage in the Court of Philip III, by Harry Sieber |
 | | Lerma's father-in-law became president of Castile's primary governing council, and his uncle was appointed Archbishop of Toledo, head of the Church in Spain. |  | | Cabrera points out that two years later after the Count of Alba's death the Duke of Béjar continued his unsuccessful quest but that a protegé of the Duke of Lerma (Pedro de Zúñiga) was appointed Grand Huntsman and also nominated as Corregidor of Madrid after the Court's return to the city in 1606. |  | | Now the Duke intended to remind both the court and his aristocratic opponents of the Lerma family's past, of the favors they had received from the Holy Roman Emperor. |

 | | While his uncle was alive, the duke could not request the primatial see but he was urging his quick promotion to the cardinalate. |  | | Pope Paul V delayed his decision until March 26, 1618 when he promoted the duke of Lerma to the cardinalate together with Henri de Gondi, bishop of Paris, recommended by Queen Marie de' Medici, to avoid a hostile reaction from France. |  | | The court believed that this second tentative of getting married was as serious as the first one. |

| | Movers: Renaissance and Reformation (1400 - Mid 1600s) By Miles Hodges |
 | | Philip II had borrowed against all the future tax revenues of the Spanish monarchy in order to pursue his aggressive military policy as defender of the Catholic faith throughout Europe. |  | | Alba's subsequent assumption of dictatorial powers led her to resign her position in 1567. |  | | He established his own absolute authority over the Russian nobles (boyars)--though not without an incredible amount of conflict (thus his title, "the Terrible"). |

 | | This remarkable personage had risen from the situation of a confidential scribe to the Duke of Lerma to the nominal rank of secretary to the King --to the real station of autocrat of Spain. |  | | CHAPTER I. The Tragi-Comedy of Court Intrigue, which had ever found its principal theatre in Spain since the accession of the House of Austria to the throne, was represented with singular complication of incident and brilliancy of performance during the reign of Philip the Third. |  | | In his earliest youth he had had cause to consider himself the heir to a wealthy uncle on his mother's side; and with those expectations, while still but a boy, he had been invited to court by the cardinal-duke. |

 | | The new king put the direction of his government entirely into the hands of his favourite, the duke of Lerma, and when he fell under the influence of Lerma's son, the duke of Uceda, in 1618, he trusted himself and his states to the new favourite. |  | | The old king had sorrowfully confessed that God had not given him a son capable of governing his vast dominions, and had foreseen that Philip III would be led by his servants. |  | | The king's own life was passed amid court festivities, on which enormous sums of money were wasted, or in the practice of childish piety. |

| | Estatuas orantes de los Duques de Lerma |
 | | In the last few years of his life, until his death in Madrid in 1608, he was contracted for many works in wood, generally in company with Spanish sculptors, although his most important enterprise was to design the tombs for the Duke and Duchess of Lerma in the convent of Saint Paul in Valladolid. |  | | Born in Milan around 1530, the sculptor, medallist and painter, Pompeo Leoni, had his father Leone Leoni as his first maestro. |  | | This ambitious protégé of King Philip III seems in effect to wish to rival the sovereigns themselves by commissioning these sumptuous effigies for his tomb, taking advantage of the installation of the Royal Court in Valladolid and calling in Pompeo Leoni from Madrid at the time, to take control of their supervision in 1601. |

 | | Secular diversions were not forgotten, but the Duke of Lerma appealed to Philip III's piety by planning a procession and service for the Translation of the Blessed Sacrament into the church at San Pedro. |  | | The duke built San Pedro, a massive palace and religious community, at his birthplace, and hosted Philip II there on three occasions: 1610, 1614, and 1617. |  | | As the cliché goes, although he was gone, he was not forgotten – thanks, in part, to his willingness to impress, and to his good taste in music. |
