The Character of Seventeenth-Century French Protestantism and the
Place of the Huguenot Refuge following the Revocation of the Edict
of Nantes Thirty-seven years ago the late Emile-G. Leonard
regretted that there were so few historical studies of
seventeenth-century French Protestantism and no general 1
historical synthesis for the period as a whole. At the time
Leonard's observation was accurate. Seventeenth-century French
Protestantism traditionally remained a questionable and
problematical subject for historians. All too frequently historians
neglected it in favor of emphasizing its origins in the second-half
of the sixteenth century and its renascence since the French
Revolution. When the rare historian broke his silence and
considered French Protestantism in the seventeenth-century, was
meager and generally ambivalent or negative. The historiographer
his treatment of seventeenth-century French Protestantism could
only cite the outstanding works of Jean Pannier and Orentin Douen,
which taken together emphasized the new pre eminence of Parisian
Protestantism in the seventeenth century, and the genuine works of
synthesis by John Vienot and Matthieu Lelievre, which again had to
be placed side by side in order to complete coverage of the whole
of the seventeenth 2 century. The only true intellectual history of
seventeenth-century French Protestantism was the study by Albert
Monod, which, however, dealt with the second-half of the century
and, then, only in the broad context of both Protestant 3 and
Catholic thought responding to the challenge of modern
rationalism."
