metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: In the late 16th–17th centuries both heraldic and chivalric practices and heraldic literature
  were flourishing in England. The article reconstructs the repertoire of the heraldic tracts written
  under the Tudors and the Early Stuarts. These sources represent an especially significant
  complex for the study of the rise of the social as an autonomous sphere. Heraldic and paraheraldic
  tracts can be divided into three categories in accordance with the structural organization
  of the texts: displays of heraldry, tracts about nobility, and catalogues of nobility. Each
  category is characterized by its peculiar themes within a broad heraldic spectrum. The tracts
  concerning nobility revealed the substance of the phenomenon, defined and structured its
  analytical parameters; therefore, the boundaries of the nobility were determined and specified.
  Heraldic displays, in addition to their practical and didactic functions, visualized the abstract
  notion of “nobility” and impressed this concept upon the minds due to a wide range of associations,
  which were revived in the process of interpretation of the heraldic symbols. Finally,
  the catalogues of the nobility concretized nobilitas in its visible boundaries and/or historical
  dynamics. Taken as an intertext owing to the compilations and mutual citations, these three
  types of the heraldic narratives created the space where the autonomization of the social was
  developing. The crucial factor in this process was the multi-dimensional nature of the definition
  of the concept of nobility. The evolution of the heraldic tracts illustrated important
  and large-scale processes: 1) the evolution of the perception of the English constitution not
  as the corpus of practices, but as the complex of practices and texts, which not only fixed the
  custom but also made its interpretation possible; 2) the rise of the social in the Early Modern
  intellectual discourse.
