This book focuses on Henry IV of France as he is presented in
selected works by Voltaire, Alfred de Vigny, Alexandre Dumas pere,
and George Sand. The book depicts King Henry from his earliest
years until his assassination, and shows how Henry was a dominant
figure in life and an overwhelming figure as a memory in the minds
of his descendants and his subjects. Special mention is made of the
St. Bartholomew's Day's Massacre, the conquest of the throne, the
Edict of Nantes, the religious conversions, and the ladies and
multiple offspring of King Henry. This book will be of interest to
students of both nineteenth-century French literature and
sixteenth-century French history courses, as a text or as a
supplement.
