Summary "Histoire de France 1415-1440 (Volume 6/19)" by Jules Michelet is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work explores significant events and societal dynamics during a pivotal period in French history, particularly focusing on the interrelations between England and France before and during the battle of Azincourt. It delves into the political and religious complexities of the era, painting a vivid portrait of the struggle for power. The opening of this volume introduces the context of the early 15th century, detailing the fraught relationship between the divided authorities of the Church and State in France, in contrast to the unification achieved in England under the Lancastrian monarchy. Michelet highlights key figures such as Henry V of England and various French nobles, showcasing the political maneuverings and tensions leading up to the notable battle. The narrative sets the stage for conflicts driven by a need for legitimacy, public support, and the quest for dominance, illustrating both the social unrest in England and France's weakened state.
