Ce volume se concentre sur les evenements qui ont marque la seconde moitie du seizieme et le debut du dix-septieme siecle avec les personnages hautement contrastes au plan moral qui ont ete au coeur des guerres de religion et des guerres civiles a travers l'Europe: Philippe II, Elisabeth Ire, Henri IV, Richelieu. Les forces motrices de l'histoire sont mises en rapport avec le caractere, l'ambition et la cruaute. L'amour aussi joue son role et Voltaire ne resiste pas a la tentation de presenter les lettres d'Henri IV a la belle Corisande qu'il decouvrit lors de la revision de son texte en 1761. L'annotation fournit les references detaillees des sources auxquelles Voltaire avait acces, et s'interesse a l'usage qu'il en a fait. L'ouvrage contient un index des noms propres ainsi qu'un index analytique.
