1674ref. 260061674 Philippe Commines ENGLISH Memoirs Kings Louis XI Charles VIII France FOLIO Philippe de Commines was a 15th-century Burgundian diplomat whose 'Memoires' helped him become the first critical and philosophical historian of modern literature. This collection of essays and entries reveal many of the faults and scandals of the reign of Louis XI. Even though Commines supported the king the content of the 'Memoirs' portrays Louis XI negatively. Commines and this work are considered one of the primary sources of 15th-century European history. In addition to the court of Louis XI Commines discusses Italian wars during the reign of Charles VIII of France. This beautiful 1674 folio edition of Comines' "Memoirs" was published by Mearne and Martyn.

A great visionary Comines 1447 - 1511 noticed and regretted the permanent antagonism between the European nations and aspired to a Europe united by Christianity. He advocated free trade the reform of the currency and the system of weights and measures as well as the consultation of the States General in order to avoid any despotism. After the first edition was produced by Denis Sauvage in 1552 which marked a notable progress this edition of 1649 produced by Théodore and Denis Godefroy was a great step forward. They printed at the prestigious Imprimerie Royale installed in the Louvre. In addition to the beautiful typographical quality it was established on two manuscripts and on the Sauvage edition.
