"The first one that has been carefully corrected and revised by Voltaire, this deluxe edition presents a text sometimes different from the one in the 1723 edition and the followings, and everywhere this text is much more correct.

(Le Petit) Voltaire wrote La Henriade in honor of Henry IV king of France and of tolerance. The main topic of the work is the siege of Paris, started by Henry III and pursued by Henry of Navarre, future Henry IV. La Henriade is a poem made of two.
