Les grandes chroniques de France (5/6) by Paulin Paris

"Les grandes chroniques de France (5/6)" by Paulin Paris is a medieval chronicle initially commissioned around 1250. This monumental work traces the history of the French monarchy from the legendary Trojan ancestors of the Franks through the Merovingian, Carolingian, and Capetian dynasties up to 1461. Originally compiled by monks at Saint-Denis and later updated by royal historians, it became the central text of official French historiography. The chronicle exists in approximately 700 manuscripts, many featuring magnificent illuminations by master artists including Jean Fouquet. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
