For at least two centuries after its first appearance in 1573
Hotman's Francogallia influenced the way in which men regarded the
European past and appraised the validity of political institutions.
The intricate collation of the variorum Latin readings by Professor
Giesey here demonstrates that nearly half the complete work
consists of material added by Hotman to later editions in such a
manner as substantially to modify the argument and balance of the
original Francogallia. This definitive Latin edition contains a
facing English translation by Professor Salmon, and a joint
introduction in which the editors discuss the genesis and
development of the text, which can no longer be regarded as written
in response to the massacre of St Bartholomew. The editors analyse
the discordant elements in Hotman's thought as his Calvinist
background, his fundamentalism in both constitutional and religious
doctrine and his ambivalent attitude to his profession as an
eminent jurist.
This book is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS series. The creators of
this series are united by passion for literature and driven by the
intention of making all public domain books available in printed
format again - worldwide. At tredition we believe that a great book
never goes out of style. Several mostly non-profit literature
projects provide content to tredition. To support their good work,
tredition donates a portion of the proceeds from each sold copy. As
a reader of a TREDITION CLASSICS book, you support our mission to
save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion.
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Rich in titles on
English life and social history, this collection spans the world as
it was known to eighteenth-century historians and explorers. Titles
include a wealth of travel accounts and diaries, histories of
nations from throughout the world, and maps and charts of a world
that was still being discovered. Students of the War of American
Independence will find fascinating accounts from the British side
of conflict. ++++The below data was compiled from various
