Commander of the Armada
For the General Good
In opening years of twentieth century, there erupted a controversy on both sides of Canadian-American border that led directly to establishment of government-owned and operated telephone systems in Canada's three prairie provinces between 1905 and 1912. This was increasingly acrimonious debate, starting as early as mid-1880s, over private versus ownership of industries vaguely classified as public utilities. Central to dispute was a fundamental d…
Adventures in Abyssinia
‘One of the greatest advantages a traveller brings back from his journeys’, wrote the chevalier d'Arvieux in 1673, ‘is that he rejects the prejudices imbibed in his own country against strangers, something which those who never leave will never accomplish.’ For with direct exposure to foreign cultures, explained Simon de la Loubère two decades later, one learns ‘that there is not in any place anything marvellous or extravagant’. The seventeenth c…
Blood and Religion
Blood and Religion
In Blood and Religion Ronald Love explores the symbiosis of religion and politics in the early career of Henri IV of France, examining the king's strong religious beliefs - imbibed in early youth from his mother, Jeanne d'Albret, queen of Navarre - and the profound effect they had not only on his private conscience but on his political and military decisions as Huguenot leader and French monarch. Fundamental aspects of Henri's developing characte…
Monarchs, Merchants, and Missionaries in Early Modern Asia
A letter from Ayutthaya, then the capital of Siam, dated 19 October 1667, Pierre Lambert de La Motte, bishop of Berythe, explained to his superior, Francois Pallu, bishop of Heliopolis, who was visiting Paris and Rome to raise support for their mission, how they might obtain the backing of King Phra Narai (r. 1656-88). The king's generosity to the French mission since their arrival in 1662 seemed to indicate an extraordinary receptiveness to Cath…
A Game of Cat and Mouse
Between 1584 and 1589, during the last of France's endemic civil-religious wars, the Huguenot struggle for survival under Henri de Navarre involved two interdependent campaigns against the joint strength of the Valois Crown and the Guise-led Catholic League. One was military. Partly because they lacked sufficient resources for offensive action, the Calvinists waged a defensive war to blunt the enemy attack and buy time until they could seize the …
Sully
Pierre de Bourdeille, seigneur de Brantome
From Renaissance Monarchy to Absolute Monarchy
Rituals of Majesty
On 1 September 1686, Louis XIV welcomed the ambassadors of Phra Narai, King of Siam, in a great public audience at Versailles. Held in the sumptuous Hall of Mirrors, it was the most spectacular reception the Sun King ever granted to an embassy during his long reign. What made it unique was the way in which the French court copied as nearly as possible the outward forms of Siamese royal ceremonial, as recounted by various French visitors to the As…
The Conversion of Henri IV
Les Maitres des requetes de l'Hotel du Roi sous les derniers Valois (1553- 1589)
The Reign of Louis XIV
"All the King's Horsemen"
Winning the Catholics
Lotus among the Magnolias
"Contemporary and Near-Contemporary Opinion of Louis XII, "Père du Peuple
On 27 May 1 498, King Louis XII, "Pre du Peuple," was crowned in the cathedral at Rheims according to ancient French custom. Thus began one of the least studied reigns in French history. Too often regarded merely as an insignificant link in the chain that loosely unites Medieval and Renaissance France, the seventeen-year reign of Louis XII has largely been ignored. At the beginning of the last century, P.L. Roederer complained that "for three cen…
