Sinopse
Memoirs of Louis XIV and His Court and of the Regency, Volume I
By Louis de Rouvroy, Duke of Saint-Simon
We have Louis de Rouvroy, Duke of Saint-Simon (1675-1755), to thank for unparalleled access to the rule of France's Sun King, Louis XIV, as well as the intrigues of the monarch's inner circle. Saint-Simon notes in his memoirs that it was his love of reading - and of history in particular - that sparked his interest in recording his own observations. The length and breadth of his notes were undoubtedly made the more possible because he kept his writings secret.
Volume I introduces the French history enthusiast to the author's beginnings, the king's unrelenting desire to establish his illegitimate children, his meddling in the lives of his court, and his successes and reverses on the battlefield.
