Department of History The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Date March 21, 1968 - ABSTRACT - The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the principal challenges to royal authority and the means by which royal authority was maintained in France during the first War of Religion (1561-1563). The latter half of the sixteenth century was a critical period for the French monarchy. Great noble families attempted to re-establish their feudal power at the expense of the crown. Francis II and Charles IX, kings who were merely boys, succeeded strong monarchs on the throne. The kingdom was im• poverished by foreign wars and overrun by veteran soldiers, ill- absorbed into civil life.

  • The Development French and Transformation
    THE DEVELOPMENT AND TRANSFORMATION OF FRENCH PROTESTANTISM JAMES R. RENICK Princeton, New Jersey The study of the development and transformation of French Protestantism in the sixteenth century presents a situation strikingly related to the contemporary scene. Nowhere is this relationship more clear than on the many foreign missionary fields of the world where Prot­ estant .evangelical missions have made such an impact during the past century. In the evangelization of large unbelieving populations and in the organization and training of indigenous national churches and Christian leadership, a host of vital questions have faced ooth missionary and national Christian alike. The desirability of highly -developed ecclesias­ tical organization, the wisdom of seeking the support of sympathetic officials in the local and national governments, the degree of association of the national church with foreign sources of income and power, the use of converted priests and monks in public Christian work are all matters common to the sixteenth century and to our present era. The questions have become no less delicate or crucial with the passage of centuries. The seriousness of the outcome is illustrated by the tragic results which followed 1562 in France. In our modern situation the final outcome is yet to be determined in many areas. The sixteenth century was" ... an age of transition ... a period of instability, of rapidly changing concepts, of widening vistas, and of unprecedented innovations. "1 Western Europe experienced the consolidation of the nation -state, the continued rise of the "New Monarchies," the great expansion of the European "money-economy, " the declaration of religious reform, the rise and spread of the Lutheran and Reformed faiths, and the revitalization of the Catholic Church through the Counter-Reformation.

Lilly Committee Members Dr. William G. Palmer, Committee Chairperson Dr. Montserrat Miller Dr. David L. Kenley Marshall University Huntington, West Virginia April, 2003 Abstract Sir Henry Norris: English Ambassador, Huguenot Advocate Robert G. Lilly Henry Norris served as English ambassador in France from 1567 to 1571, during the second and third French wars of religion, fought between Protestant Huguenots and the ruling Catholics. As ambassador Norris was able to help convince his reluctant Queen, Elizabeth I, to provide aid to her fellow Protestants in France. Elizabeth also entrusted Norris with the task of persuading the French authorities to refrain from sending forces to aid the deposed Scottish Queen Mary and Catholic rebels in the North of England. Despite contemporary criticism that he was inexperienced, and criticism from modern historians that he was ineffective, this thesis shows that Norris played an important role in England’s diplomatic relationship with France during his ambassadorship, and his vocal support for the Huguenots helped pioneer the idea of religious pluralism accepted in modern democracies.

  • Some Pamphlets of the French Wars of Religion Downloaded From
    1899 451 Some Pamphlets of the French Wars of Religion Downloaded from period of the French wars of religion was emphatically an age of pamphlets. From the ' Tigre ' of Francois Hotman, that remarkable pamphlet which was published in the year of the Tumult of Amboise, to the ' Satyre Menippee,' that still more http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ remarkable pamphlet which heralded the entry of Henry IV into Paris, they were produced in long succession. At firBt, indeed, the production was somewhat sparse, but the massacre of St. Bartholomew gave it additional impetus, and if it slackened some- what during the earlier years of Henry III, towards the close of his reign it became enormous. The revival of the League, the question of the succession, the murder of the Guises, and finally the murder of the king himself, were each occasions for a fresh at Georgetown University on July 18, 2015 fusillade. After his death the firing became less furious, but it was more effective; a share in the final victory of Henry IV waa rightly attributed by a contemporary historian to the plumes bien taillees of the pamphleteers of his party.1 Some of the pamphlets were, originally at least, written in Latin. Dealing for the most part with questions of constitutional law or political philosophy, they appealed from the passions of contending Frenchmen to the judgment of educated Europe. But, though they rise above the dust of party warfare to the clear atmosphere of philosophy, and though they wear an air of candid inquiry, they are none the less inspired by contemporary events; the fighting man's harness peeps out under the philosopher's cloak, and in the heat of the scuffle the combatants often interchange weapons.

  • Histoire De Montmorency
    - 1 - Histoire de Montmorency Du castrum au castellum A quinze kilomètres au nord-ouest de la capitale, s'ouvre une vallée dont le seuil est barré par une retenue d'eau. Dominée par un promontoire rocheux, son flanc nord est protégé par une colline boisée. Forêt, butte, vallée ont un point commun. Elles portent le nom d'une des familles les plus illustres de l'histoire de France, les Montmorency, qui furent jusqu'en 1632 les maîtres de céans. Pour être exact, le nom du lieu est antérieur à l'arrivée de son premier seigneur. Composé de deux éléments, un préfixe à caractère topographique Mons (le mont) et un anthroponyme Maurentius , il désigne probablement l'agriculteur Morency (forme germanisée de Maurentius ) qui cultivait, à l'époque carolingienne, un lopin de terre au pied du mont. Dès l'origine, Montmorency est surmonté d'un château primitif entièrement construit en bois, le castrum : une simple tour carrée protégée par une chemise circulaire, au sommet d'une motte naturelle dont la base est fermée par une seconde palissade circulaire. Cette fortification, hautement stratégique, s'imbrique dans un système défensif établi par Robert le Fort, ancêtre des Capétiens, pour contenir les incursions normandes. Lorsque le roi Robert II le Pieux, au tout début du XI e siècle, remet à Bouchard le Barbu le castrum , celui-ci est détruit. Le nouveau titulaire, qui, dès lors, s'intitule Bouchard de Montmorency, s'engage à le remettre en état. Fils de Bouchard de Bray, petit baron de Haute-Seine, et petit neveu de Gautier Ier, évêque de Sens, Bouchard le Barbu est chassé du Sénonais entre 959 et 968.
