Dehorgny has now left Richelieu for Brittany, where God, in His infinite goodness, continues to bless you and all your men, whom I cordially embrace.

October 8, 1659 Monsieur, Our Sisters 0/ Charity are still sick Sometimes Sister Perrinel has periods oftime that lead us to believe she is on the mend, butthis does not last. Asfor Sister Charlotte, 2 sixyears ago at Christmas she was seriously ill; since then. her health has never been good. Perhaps a change ofair mightputthem both back on theirfeet. I think Mile LeGras would bedoing a great charityfor this place ifshe made an effort to send two other Sisters here because, ifshe sends only one, all her time will be taken up with nursing the two Sisters, and the patients will be left alone. No one visits the Sisters and they are not very weI/-liked. People say that they did not take proper care ofthe sick and 30illes Lemerer (cf. no. 2974a. n. 7); no information is available for M. Tanguy. 4Dimissorial letters for Peter Butler (Pierre Buthleer in Notices, vol. I, p. 482, and vol. V (Supplement], p. 102). Born in Drom, Cashel diocese (Ireland) in April 1632, he entered the Congregation ofthe Mission in Richelieu on August 22, 1654, and took his vows there on August 15, 1656 (cf. vol. VII, no. 2694). This same letter (no. 2694) and others speakofSaint Vincent's attempt in 1658-59 to obtain dimissorialletters for his ordination. The title for ordination in the Congregation ofthe Mission and the authority ofthe Superior General were at variance with the attempts ofPropaganda Fide to have all Irish seminarians ordained on the continent take an oath to return as missionaries to Ireland.

Now, sometimes the Ladies have come across a patient whose bed had not been made for a week. True, theirpoor health may have contributedto that. It is imperative that the ones who come know how to let blood and be very gracious with the patients because this is one ofthe most difficult places there is. I ask Our Lord to assist all a/us, andlam, in His love. Monsieur, your most humble and obedient servant.

I am sending you the reply of the Doctors of the Sorbonne regarding the difficulty you raised about the Masses. I forgot to tell you that we cannot receive into the Company a person who wants to leave another well·regulated Community without a legitimate reason. So, it will be a good idea for you to encouragethe seminarianofthe OrderofChristianDoctrine,2 about whom you wrote me, to persevere in that holy religious Order to which God has called him. M. Dehorgny has gone to make the visitation ofour houses in Brittany; ifGod gives him sufficient health, I hope he will go to see you. I am, in O[ur] L[ord], Monsieur, your most humble servant. VINCENT DEPAUL, i.s.C.M. Addressed: Monsieur Barry Letter3004. - Archives ofthe Mission, Turin. original signed letter. JEdmund Barry, born in the Cloyne diocese (Ireland) on June 24, 1613, was ordained 8 priest in Cabot'S in 1639 and entered the Congregation ofthe Mission on July 21. 1641. He took his vows at Saint-Lazare a few days before his departure for Ireland in 1646, returning to France in 1652. after Limerick had been captured by Cromwell's army. He was then placed in RicheJieu (1652-53) and Montauban (1653-80). While in Montauban, he directed the seminary and was Superior there (1657-64,1675-80). Bany was also a Doctor ofTheology and was still alive on May 31. 1680, as two legal documents show, but he died later that year. 2J:n 1592 Cesar de Bus and Jean-Baptiste Romillion founded in Isle (Vaucluse)the Institute ofthe Priests ofChristian Doctrine for the instruction ofthe poor, the ignorant, and the people ofthe nuaI areas. Pope Clement VIII approved it in t 597. The Institute became polarized over the question ohows, and its growth was stifled because ofits trials. -173- 3005.· TO GABRIEL DELESPINEY, SUPERIOR, IN MARSEILLES October 17. 1659 I hope that all ofyou will soon be able to give a mission. Do not be afraid of announcing Christian truths to the people with the simplicity ofthe Gospel and ofthe first workers ofthe Church. We have heard you preach and know that you are going about it the right way in order to touch hearts. The reputation ofthe Company must be in Jesus Christ, and the way to maintain it there is to conform oneselfto Him, and not to great preachers. You will soon have learned enough ofthe languagel to hear confessions. Be very careful to learn first the words people ordinarily use to confess the most common sins, so that you will be able to understand and question the most ignorant among the people. 3006. • TO EDME JOLLY, SUPERIOR, IN ROME Oclober 17. 1659 People are right to congratulate you about your house, not so much for the reasons you tell me, as for the instruments God used in getting it for you. I mean two holy Cardinals I who, having in viewthe honor and service ofGod, wantedtoplaceyouinaposition to procure the above in every way the poor Company can and should do. Two more like them would be needed to help us to thank them for all the favors they have conferred on us and for the charming way inwhich they take pleasure inassisting us, especially Cardinal Durazzo. This seems to behis only interest and, since God alone is the object ofhis actions, he can never be worthily thanked except by Him.

Brother Claude' is now returning. Thank you for having sent him here for such a good reason as that ofbringing us one ofour sick Brothers. M. Maillard will give him 135 Iivres, namely, 125 for the quarterly pension and 10 for his own little needs. I am glad you received the 50 "ens ofyour annual subsidy and that you hope to receive at the end ofthe year the wherewithal to establish the family and its works. I am all the more pleased that it was Madame de Lorthon' who told you so. As for the foundation ofthe late Procurator ofthe King, I will write to you about that some other time; please remind me to do so. We have not yet decided to accept it. Let me know on what the income of10 ecus is assigned and ifit is well secured. I am, in O[ur] L[ord], Monsieur, your most humble servant. VINCENT DEPAUL, Ls.C.M.

We have to believe that there is justice in the loss ofyour lawsuit. The same God who gave you the property has deprived you ofit; 2 may His Holy Name be blessed! Property is evil when it is where God does not wish it to be. The more we are like Our Lord, stripped of everything,' the more we will share in His Spirit. The more we seek, like Him, the Kingdom ofGod His Father' and to establish it in ourselves and in others, the more will the necessities oflife be given us. Live in this trust and do not anticipate the sterile years ofwhich youspeak. Ifthey occur, it will not be through any fault of yours, but by the order of Providence, whose ways are always adorable.s Let us then be guided by our Father, who is in heaven,' and strive to have only one will with Him on earth. 3009. - TO EDME JOLLY, SUPERIOR, IN ROME October 24, 1659 We will not be upset about not getting a church, since it is thought inadvisable for us to have one.

    10 Jean Hoeufft, French subsidies, and the Thirty Years’ War Erik Thomson Historians of early modern Europe have emphasized the importance of entrepreneurs and private contractors to governance, ascribing particular importance to the merchants and bankers who lent money to crowns, organized chartered companies, and equipped and provisioned armies, as well as to the officers who recruited, armed, and led military units.1 Although Guy Rowlands has charted some of the operations of international remittance bankers during the reign of Louis the XIV in a recent book, historians have generally neglected the role of bankers and merchants in diplomacy during the Thirty Years’ War.2 Yet bankers and merchants played crucial roles in early modern diplomacy, drawing upon contacts, financial techniques and institutions, and sources of coin and capital to make possible the payment of subsidies and other diplomatic gifts and expenditures that the chapters in this volume suggest were crucial to relations among sovereigns.3 1 David Parrott, The Business of War: Military Enterprise and Military Revolution in Early Modern Europe (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2012); The Contractor State and Its Implications, 1659–1815, ed. by Richard Harding and Sergio Solbes Ferri (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria: Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, 2012); and War, Entrepreneurs and the State in Europe and the Mediterranean, 1300–1800, ed. by Jeff Fynn-Paul (Leiden: Brill, 2014). 2 Guy Rowlands, Dangerous and Dishonest Men: The International Bankers of Louis

  • Richelieu's Army: War, Government and Society in France, 1624–1642
    Richelieu's Army: War, Government and Society in France, 1624–1642 DAVID PARROTT CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Richelieu's Army War, Government and Society in France, 1624±1642 The conduct of European war on an unprecedented scale is central to an understanding of the ministry of Richelieu (1624±42), and there has been no previous study of the French army during this period. This book provides a detailed account of the organization of the army, and examines the challenges posed by war to government and society in a period associated with the creation of the `absolutist state'. By making extensive use of archival material, the study cuts through myths concerning military and administrative evolution, and confronts typical assumptions about progressive centralization and more effective control of the war-effort by the crown and its agents. Although the European war imposed huge burdens upon the French people, Richelieu's ministry struggled to control the army through traditional administrative and ®nancial mechanisms. Far from strengthening the absolutist authority of government, the waging of war eroded the ministry's control over army of®cers and troops and incited tensions between soldiers and civilians across French society which in turn contributed to the undermining of existing structures of authority and control. The book also makes an original and sceptical contribution to the debate about a `military revolution' in early modern Europe by examining the conduct of war in early seventeenth- century France. In addition, it seeks to contextualize the inadequacy of the war-effort during Richelieu's ministry by providing a view of the military context of French foreign policy after 1625 which challenges many of the orthodoxies about Richelieu's aims and objectives in involving France in the Thirty Years War.

  • Du Louis À L'assignat
    Du louis à l’assignat Conférence de M. Guy Antonetti, professeur émérite à l’Université de Paris II, donnée au MINÉFI le 21 novembre 2001. À la veille du passage à l’euro, le MINÉFI a organisé une manifestation autour de l’histoire de notre monnaie, du Moyen Âge à nos jours. Cette série de conférences, intitulée « Les Français et leur monnaie : le Louis, le Franc, l’Euro et les autres », offre l’occasion de montrer comment la monnaie a toujours été au coeur des enjeux économiques majeurs de notre pays et de la vie quotidienne des Français. Cet article, qui suit celui consacré à la naissance du franc (Les Notes Bleues de Bercy n° 221), traite des différents systèmes monétaires adoptés par la France jusqu’à la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Les structures de la circulation monétaire au XVIe siècle Les pièces d’or Depuis la réapparition de l’or dans le monnayage de l’Europe, au XIIIe siècle à Florence, c’est le florin qui a servi de modèle à toutes les pièces d’or émises par les divers souverains, à l’origine plus peut-être pour affirmer leur souveraineté que pour satisfaire à une nécessité économique. En France, ce fut l’écu d’or. Toutes ces pièces d’or, frappées au marteau sur des flans de mince épaisseur, pesaient environ 3,5 grammes. En France, le poids des pièces de monnaie était défini par rapport au poids de marc, soit 244,753 grammes. On disait qu’il y aurait tant de pièces taillées dans un marc pesant.

PAPER MONUMENTS: THE LATIN ELEGIES OF THOMAS CHAMBERS, ALMONER TO CARDINAL RICHELIEU Kelsey Jackson Williams On 6 September 1638 Cardinal Richelieu received a messenger from the king informing him of the birth of the future Louis XIV. Richelieu, then with the army at Saint Quentin, immediately proceeded to the local church, accompanied by a train of noblemen, officers, and bureaucrats. There they heard mass, the Te deum and Domine salvum fac regem were sung, and afterwards the cardinal gave his benediction to the assembled congregation, artillery firing all the while to mark the royal birth. Leading this thanksgiving mass was one Thomas Chambers, the son of an Aberdeen merchant and almoner to Cardinal Richelieu.1 Chambers was one of a multitude of Scots serving the French state during this period.
