The first half of the XVIIth century- the epoch of Red Eminence and Louis XIII, named as Fair, - was a rather difficult period in the history of France: nobles’ conspiracies, Huguenots’ mutinies, peasants’ uprisings, poor harvest, epidemics… But this book provides an exhaustive description of the Frenchmen everyday life. It touches upon numerous issues, e.g. what was in vogue, what the king had on dinner, how people struggled against the plague, what was studied at the university, what taxes were paid, etc.
