Excerpt from Histoire de Cromwell: D'Après les Mémoires du Temps Et les Recueils Parlementaires
Mais ce qui peut surtout justifier l'entreprise d'une nouvelle histoire de Cromwell, c'est le grand nombre de mémoires originaux, tmp peu consultés, et dans lesquels il est facile de recueillir une foule de particularités curieuses sur le caractère et le gouvernement de cet homme extraordinaire. Quelques uns de ces ouvrages conservés longtemps manuscrits dans diverses familles, étaient inconnus aux historiens anglais, et n'ont paru que depuis peu d'années tels sont les Mémoires de mistress Hutchinson, ouvrage d'un tour original, dicté par l'enthousiasme religieux et républicain, et propre à faire con naitre les moeurs du temps par les passions mêmes de l'auteur. Un autre ouvrage, plus récemment imprimé, les Mémoires du colonel N ewwrt, oflicier royaliste, ne présente pas une lecture moins instructive, quoiqu'il soit tr0p rempli de ces détails militaires qui se trouvent également dans les écrits des divers partis. Enfin, les Mémoires de Jacques II, qui viennent d'être publiés de la manière la plus authentique, révèlent sur la même époque quelques particularités inconnues ou peu prouvées jusqu'alors.
