"Correspondance diplomatique de Bertrand de Salignac de La Mothe Fénélon, Tome Deuxième" is a historical collection of diplomatic correspondence written in the early 19th century. The work compiles the letters, reports, and instructions of Bertrand de Salignac, the French Ambassador to England from 1568 to 1575, detailing the political and diplomatic interactions of France and England during a turbulent period marked by the issues surrounding Mary, Queen of Scots. The book presents a fascinating insight into the complexities of diplomatic relations in the 16th century. At the start of this volume, the reader is introduced to a specific dispatch from Fénélon to the King of France, dated June 3, 1569. In this letter, Fénélon expresses his concerns regarding the interference of English ministers and the seizure of royal letters, which undermined the trust between England and France. The ambassador requests that Queen Elizabeth assist in restoring Mary, Queen of Scots, to her rightful position and addresses the unsettling rumors of potential poisonings among significant nobles, reflecting the tense atmosphere of political intrigue. The dispatch is filled with detailed observations about diplomatic practices and relationships, setting the tone for the ensuing correspondence that sheds light on the maneuvering of power during this era.
