The Life and Letters of Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, Vol. 2 (of 2)

In illustrating Busbecqs letters from France reference is frequently made to contemporary writers, and it may be useful to the reader to have some idea of their different characters, and positions, and of the historical value of their statements. (1). J. A. de Thou, the historian, son of Christopher de Thou, President of the Parliament of Paris. Jurist and statesman. Busbecqs intimate friend and warm admirer. Quoted as Thuanus. Edition, Geneva, 1620, &c. (2). Pierre de lEstoile. Audiencier de la Chancellerie de Paris. A quiet man, who took no part in politics. He kept a diary which is generally known as Journal de Henri III. and >Henri IV., but is really his own private diary during the reigns of those monarchs. Quoted as De lEstoile. Edition, Paris, 1875, &c. (3). Pierre de Bourdeille, Abb and Seigneur of Brantme. Soldier and courtier. Gentleman of the Chamber to Charles IX. and Henri III. His ideas are those of the French Court of that period, and consequently his standard of morality is very low. He was a friend of Alenon, du Guast, Bussy, de Viteaux, La Noue, &c., and a great admirer of Marguerite, to whom he dedicated several of his works. Having been disabled by a fall from his horse, he devoted his last years to writing memoirs of the celebrated men and women he had known, a treatise on duelling, &c. Quoted as Brantme. Edition, Paris, 1822. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
