Synopsis
Excerpt from L'Administration Sous l'Ancien Régime: Les Intendants de la Généralité d'Amiens (Picardie Et Artois)
Les gouverneurs des provinces, chargés de l'auto rité militaire, appartenaient à des familles illustres et avaient une personnalité puissante qui gênait l'action de l'autorité royale, si ombrageuse sous Louis XIV.
La royauté voulut imposer à ses représentants directs dans les provinces cette soumission absolue et passive qu'elle ne trouvait pas chez les gouverneurs, et les principes de Richelieu, qui dirigeaient Louis XIV dans le choix de ses ministres, présidaient a celui des intendants.
