<p>The Duchess, the Court, and the City in Gustavian Stockholm</p><p><br />This article analyses the everyday urban sociability and the staging of politics of the Swedish duchess Hedwig Elizabeth Charlotte in the years around 1790. The cultural and social life of the Gustavian court has been the focus of much scholarly attention. However, the main aim of these studies has been to examine court life as a reflection of Gustavus III&rsquo;s personality and political ambitions. This article, however, integrates Gustavian court sociability in a broader European pattern by focusing on the monarch&rsquo;s sister-in-law. It aims to give a detailed account of social practice through a vast selection of the Duchess&rsquo;s personal remains: her political journal and letters, informal notes to friends, and household accounts showing the sums she spent on charity. It also takes into account royal theatre box subscription lists as a way to identify the composition of the theatre audience. The claim of this article is that the Swedish royal family maintained their authority through their daily urban presence, such as their walks in the public gardens and main streets of Stockholm, their attendance at weekly balls at the Stock Exchange (B&ouml;rshuset), or their visits to the royal theatres. Through a carefully ritualized sociability, the court preserved their social exclusivity in their urban encounters.</p>

Informal Notes

Subjects differentially evaluated one excellently qualified candidate for a teaching position in Grade 4 as a function of varied informal notes attached to an application. The three variations were heterosexually cued behaviors, homosexually cued behaviors, and no cues. This application was presented along with four other standardized applications to which informal notes were also attached. The application was rated most favorably by the subjects when the heterosexually cued behaviors were present, and least favorably when homosexually cued behaviors were present. In addition, men displayed more discriminative behaviors in their ratings than did women.
