An understudied aspect of Renaissance lordship is its transregional dimension. Somesixteenth-century lords, such as René, count of Challant, held lands that were geographicallydispersed and situated within multiple jurisdictional contexts. His status as lord of Valangininjected personal and familial elements into René’s diplomatic and military role in Sabaudian-Swiss politics. Litigation over his landed claims in different parts of Europe drew him intorelationships with a host of political actors. Likewise, the territorial configuration of his fiefsaffected revenue collection and accounting in ways that impacted his interactions with otherprinces. Consideration of transregional lordship further complicates our understanding ofthe development of sovereign authority and its relationship to dynastic interests.
