French Society by Sharon Kettering
Covering the reigns of the first three Bourbon kings, this book explores the upheavals in French society between 1589 and 1715 by examining the bonds which tied classes together: rank, honour and reputation; family, household and kinship; faith and the Church; state and obedience to the King.
'a welcome introductory guide to the main topics and debates..clear and full of lively anecdotal detail' History
' this is a masterly piece of compression, and a lively, provocative work which conveys very well the turbulence of seventeenth-century French history and historiography.' English Historical Review
