DESCRIPTION:How did court dwarfs navigate their unique social status in ea
 rly modern German courts? Despite being perceived as privileged dependents
 \, they served various roles such as entertainers\, playmates\, and symbol
 s of princely status. This talk delves into aspects of their lives\, explo
 ring recruitment\, legal standing\, and opportunities for social advanceme
 nt. Contrary to past associations with slaves and pets\, a nuanced perspec
 tive emerges by analyzing their position within broader asymmetrical depen
 dencies in early modern court societies. Adopting an intersectional approa
 ch reveals "small differences" between social groups.
