Hey all. Long time no … post? I guess?
Anyway, I come here seeking information to a small problem that will take far longer to explain than, I hope, solve.
In a tabletop RPG I’m involved in, I play a late 17th / early 18th century valet to a gentleman of low noble rank. I have been asked (by both other players and other characters) to instruct on forms of address, not only for servant-to-higher, but noble-to-noble, noble-to-clergy, and the like.
I’m wondering if anyone has a good, comprehensive source for something like this, either a book, article, personal experience, or what-have-you?
Thanks in advance!
