  • Louis XIV face a1'Europe du Nord

    Roger MettamARTICLEThe English Historical Review2008

    It is not a criticism of Professor Hasquin's substantial and interesting book to say that, in its contents, arguments and conclusions, it bears a striking resemblance to Voltaire's Le siècle de Louis XIV.

    Lorsqu’au printemps 1989 Roger Mettam et moi-même envisagions d’organiser un débat sur l’état de la recherche historique en France et en GrandeBretagne, il nous est vite apparu qu’une des interrogations nouvelles les plus fécondes portait sur le patronage et le clientélisme dans le fonctionnement des deux monarchies à l’époque moderne.

    During the past thirty years most historians have acknowledged that it is anachronistic to describe Louis XIV as an absolute monarch. Many of them have turned their attention towards the various elite groups whose power and privileges coexisted with those of the crown in the very different, and sometimes fiercely separatist, provinces which formed the kingdom of France. A few have attributed such great influence to local nobles and institutions t…
