Examines the aristocratic experience in early modern France through a close examination of the history of the Rohan, a noble family in the Parisian court who were involved in notable political and religious events from the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries.
The interest in social history and private life is often seen as a 20th-century innovation. This book shows that we need to look back into the 19th century, when French intellectuals developed many of the key concepts that historians employ. It also compares French approaches to social history with those of German historians between 1930 and 1970.
