Description

Explore the impact of the French Wars of Religion through the lens of gender and justice in Renaissance France. Set in Paris in 1599, this dramatic account follows Renee Chevalier, a widow who sought justice against military captain Mathurin Delacanche for his crimes against local villagers. This work examines how Chevalier pursued her case despite the Edict of Nantes, which commanded that the recent religious conflicts be forgotten. Based on neglected archival research, this book provides a detailed look at how legal struggles and daily life were shaped by the aftermath of war. It is an essential read for those interested in history, law, and the social dynamics of the Renaissance period.
