Synopsis
France Under Richelieu And Colbert by John Henry Bridges presents four lectures that trace the formation of the French monarchy, the internal governance under Mazarin and Colbert, France's relations with Europe, and the evolution of thought in the seventeenth century. Bridges argues that centralization under Richelieu, Mazarin, Colbert, and Louis XIV transformed feudal society into a modern state oriented toward peaceful industry and intellectual progress, while also provoking resistance from nobles and religious factions. The first lecture surveys the rise of the French monarchy and the decay of feudalism; the second analyzes Mazarin's and Colbert's domestic reforms, taxation policies, and economic modernization; the third examines France’s European relations and the balance of power post-Westphalia; the fourth surveys Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, and the philosophical shifts that shaped modern Europe. The volume situates French developments within a wider continental frame, comparing England, the Dutch Republic, Germany, and Spain, and highlights the long-term consequences for European civilization.
