The French Nobility in the Eighteenth Century: From Feudalism to Enlightenment
Guy Chaussinand-Nogaret
One of France's liveliest historians, Guy Chaussinand-Nogaret argues that the traditional picture of the pre-revolutionary French nobility as a caste of intransigent reactionaries and parasites is a fabrication of revolutionary propaganda. Using new research, he argues that the nobility represented all that was most forward-looking in eighteenth-century French society.
