520 Available for the first time in English, these thirteen
selections from André Thevet's Les vrais pourtraits et
vies des hommes illustres offer a glimpse of France during
a time of great upheaval. Originally published in 1584,
Thevet's collection contains over two hundred biographical
sketches, detailing the lives of important persons from
antiquity to the sixteenth century. Edward Benson and
Roger Schlesinger have translated and annotated Thevet's
portraits of his contemporaries, and divided them into
three categories: monarchs, aristocrats, and scholars.
Additionally, an extensive introduction places the work in
context and describes the critical attention that Thevet
and his writings have received. Together these portraits
provide a history of sixteenth-century France as the
country underwent tremendous change: from an intellectual
renaissance and its first encounter with the New World to
the Protestant Reformation and the Wars of Religion that
followed. France was irrevocably altered by these events
and Thevet's account of the lives of individuals who
struggled with them is indispensable.--|cProvided by
