L'histoire des variations des églises protestantes which neutralized Protestant theses by demonstrating their incessant variations appeared in 1688; its success was immediate and troubled the Protestant world. Very quickly the Protestant minister Jurieu responded in his work Lettres pastorales to Bossuet's book by attacking it sharply; in turn and masterfully Bossuet published six avertissements in which he treats the principal points of doctrine opposing Catholicism to Protestantism. This battle of books brilliantly reactivated the theological and political quarrel of the two interpretations of Christianity. Bossuet fought Protestants all his life and with the greatest passion even obtaining the conversion of Turenne and other notable figures. Bookplate of Ysabel Sanchez de movellan. Second bookplate with the motto Sine angulis angulo. Library stamp on title page: Ex. Bibl. Eccl. Cath. Rupel. On verso of title page another stamp: Couet. Chne.
