"Histoire de France 1661-1690 (Volume 15/19)" by Jules Michelet is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume specifically covers a transformative period in French history, focusing on the reign of Louis XIV and significant events such as the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, intermingling political, religious, and cultural dimensions. The work provides a critical analysis of these historical developments, aiming to present a comprehensive understanding of France during this crucial era. The opening of the text establishes that Michelet is not merely recounting a chronological history but is instead weaving a narrative that encompasses major social and political shifts while maintaining critical distance from popular sentiment and contemporary biases. He reflects on the significance of the events leading to the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, emphasizing the interplay between religion and politics during Louis XIV's rule. The text indicates that the central themes include the influence of religious factions, administrative power struggles, and the eventual socio-political ramifications of these actions, presenting a landscape rich with complexity and foundational changes in French society.
