A survey of French history from the reign of Louis XI to the outbreak
of the Wars of Religion that isolates some of the controversial
theories of the period: state building, nobility and clientage and the
Reformation and discusses them with full attention to the regional
diversity of France. It also introduces the reader to recent research
on the court and government set in the context of the basic social and
economic movements of the period. It is argued that the basic identity
of France as a nation was reinforced under the aegis of monarchical
legitimacy backed by the nobility and the church, setting the pattern
for the rest of the Ancien Regime.
