A Popular History of France from the Earliest Times, Volume 3
Produced by David Widger
“A Popular History of France from the Earliest Times, Volume 3” by François Guizot is a historical account written in the early 19th century, focusing on significant events in France's past. This volume specifically addresses critical moments of the Hundred Years' War, emphasizing the reign of Charles VI, Joan of Arc, and the complex political maneuverings within the French nobility during this turbulent period. The beginning of this volume sets the stage by discussing the tumultuous reign of Charles VI and the ensuing power struggles among the dukes of Burgundy, Berry, and Anjou following Charles V's death. It highlights the internal strife in France, the ambitions of regional leaders, and the impact of the conflict with England, including alliances and rivalries. The narrative swiftly transitions from the king's early years of misguided guardianship to the outbreaks of civil discontent, underscoring the chaotic political landscape and hinting at the tragic fate of Joan of Arc as she becomes pivotal in rallying the French people. Through rich historical details and character motivations, Guizot aims to provide a nuanced understanding of this critical chapter in French history. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
