Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fresh perspective on the enigmatic Cardinal Richelieu and the authorship of his famous memoirs. The author challenges the traditional attribution of the work to Richelieu's secretary, Charpentier, and instead posits that the memoirs were largely the product of Achille de Harlay de Sancy, Bishop of Saint-Malo, with assistance from Cherrà , another of Richelieu's secretaries. The author meticulously examines the evidence surrounding the creation of the memoirs, including archival documents and the memoirs themselves, to support this theory. The book also delves into the historical context of the memoirs, exploring the political and personal motivations that shaped their content. Through this analysis, the book sheds new light on the complex relationship between Richelieu and his entourage, and offers a more nuanced understanding of the memoirs as a historical source.
