N2 - This chapter explores the importance of a president’s diplomatic identity in shaping their reputation and legacy, arguing that diplomatic ritual is used to transmit important messages to domestic and international audiences, often with lasting impacts. Drawing on presidential archives, and both U.S. and U.K. media coverage, this chapter places president’s diplomatic identities within a broad context of their historical reputations, and considers how assessments of their diplomatic efforts and achievements affect and are affected by their wider legacies and reputations. By considering key examples from several post World War Two administrations additional conclusions are drawn regarding the importance of presidential style, rhetoric, and popular culture in shaping historical reputations.
