Excerpt from Opuscules (Vers Et Prose) De Pierre Constant, Jurisconsulte Et Poète Lengrois, Xvie Siècle: Avec Introduction Et Notes
Ces plaquettes de toute rareté, aujourd'hui si recherchées par les amateurs, offrent le plus grand intérêt pour l'his toire de la Champagne; les quatre premières, surtout, sont des plus précieuses pour l'histoire de la Ligue dans le pays langrois. Aussi, en les réimprimant textuellement, croyons-nous rendre un véritable service aux bibliophiles et aux hommes d'étude, en regrettant toutefois de ne pouvoir, malgré d'actives recherches, leur donner sur ce poète oublié et sur ses ouvrages, des renseignements plus 'complets.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of poems and prose works from the French author Pierre Constant, a noted author of his time, encapsulating the turmoil and division of 16th century France through the lens of the civil war. The volume begins with a lengthy historical overview of the French Wars of Religion and the part played by Constant's hometown of Langres, a royalist stronghold that faced repeated attacks by the Catholic League. Constant's work is emblematic of the era, saturated with historical detail and rich in local color, providing a vivid and authentic insight into the realities of life in 16th century France. In addition to Constant's main body of work, the book also includes a selection of shorter poems and observations on the events of the day, offering a multifaceted insight into not only the war itself, but the religious and social divisions that fanned the flames of conflict. The author's deep understanding of the interplay between religion and politics is evident throughout, and his work offers a valuable perspective on the origins and development of the civil war.
