J. Knecht clearly and authoritatively describes the rise and fall of France in the sixteenth century. Drawing on more than forty years of research into primary and secondary' sources, he combines narrative with analysis, whilst also reflecting on the cultural, economic and social contexts in which events occurred. Now updated to take account of new research in the USA, Britain and France since 1996, this is the most comprehensive and balanced history of sixteenth-century France available in English. For the revised edition the bibliography has also been brought up to date to ensure that the book remains indispensable reading for anyone interested in French history and culture, or Renaissance and Reformation Europe. / CONTENTS Note on Coinage and Measures Map of France, 1494 Map of France, 1585-98 Preface to the Second Edition Preface to the First Edition 1 France in 1500 2 The Minority Rule of Charles VIII, 1483-94 3 Charles VIII and the Italian Wars, 1494-8 4 Louis XII, 'Father of the People', 1498-1515 5 The Church in Crisis 6 Francis I: The First Decade, 1515-25 7 The New Learning and Heresy, 1483-1525 8 Defeat, Captivity and Restoration, 1525-7 9 War and Peace, 1527-38 10 The Court and Patronage of Francis I 11 Francis I: The Last Decade, 1537-47 12 The Absolutism of Francis I 13 Henry II, the Victor of Metz, 1547-52 14 The Arts and Literature under Henry II 15 Henry II: The Tragic Peace, 1553-9 16 France Overseas 17 The Mid-Century Crisis 18 The Failure of Conciliation, 1559-62 19 The First Civil War, 1562-3 20 The Fragile Peace, 1563-6 21 The Second and Third Civil Wars, 1566-70 22 The St Bartholomew's Day Massacres, 1572 23 Literary Responses 24 Fraternal Discord, 1573-83 25 Henry III and his Court 26 The Catholic League, 1584-92 27 The Triumph of Henry IV, 1593-1610 Conclusion Bibliographical Essay Glossary Genealogies Index.
