HAY du CHASTELET, Paul
Traité de la Politique de France. Par Monsieur P.H. Marquis de C.
In-12°, pp.264, legatura in mezza pelle con titolo al dorso in oro, buono stato. Il presente lavoro è un trattato sulla Francia sotto Luigi XIV. Esamina la monarchia, l'aristocrazia, il clero, l'economia francese e le relazioni estere. L'autore condanna la persecuzione degli Ugonotti, considera i modi per ridurre il numero eccessivo di monaci e monache e favorisce le riforme fiscali al fine di ridurre la povertà e aumentare la popolazione. Il re fu offeso da quest'opera e l'autore fu mandato in prigione quando fu scoperta la sua identità. Paul Hay du Chastelet (n. 1630 circa) era il figlio di un illustre avvocato francese con lo stesso nome, che è stato il primo segretario dell'Accademia di Francia. Venne considerato come uno dei più grandi strateghi del XVII secolo. In-12°, pp.264, half calf binding, golden title at the spine, good copy. The present work is a treatise on France under Louis XIV. It examines the monarchy, the aristocracy, the clergy, the French economy, and foreign relations. The author condemns the persecution of the Huguenots, considers ways to reduce the excessive number of monks and nuns, and favors tax reforms in order to reduce poverty and increase the population. The king was offended by this work, and had the author sent to prison when his identity was discovered. Paul Hay du Chastelet (b. ca. 1630) was the son of an illustrious French lawyer of the same name, who served as the first secretary of the French Academy. He is considered to be one of only two major strategists in Europe in the middle of the 17th century
