by Robert J. Knecht (Author)
The court of France in the sixteenth century has often been seen merely as a focus of political intrigue and conflict. This book traces its evolution from a nomadic institution to a more sedentary one. It explores the political and cultural importance of the French court through seven reigns from Charles VIII to Henry III.
