Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the establishment of municipal governments in 16th-century Brittany during the French Wars of Religion. In France, the breakdown of royal authority during the civil wars allowed many communities to establish their own methods of self-governance. The author traces the development of these institutions in three important Breton cities: Nantes, Rennes, and Saint-Malo. These cities faced distinct political and economic circumstances, and their experiences varied greatly. Nantes became home to a powerful and innovative municipal government, while Rennes remained more cautious, and Saint-Malo pursued an independent course, balancing the demands of royal authority with its own commercial interests. This book sheds new light on the origins and development of local government in early modern France and highlights the complex interplay between central authority and local autonomy during a period of profound political and religious upheaval.
