Philippe de Commines (1447-1511) was a writer and diplomat in the courts of Burgundy and France. He has been called the first truly modern writer and the first critical and philosophical historian since classical times. This two-volume work contains the "histories of Louis XI and Charles VIII, Kings of France, and of Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy. To which is added, The Scandalous Chronicle, or The Secret History of Louis XI, by Jean de Troyes."
Edited by Andrew R. Scoble.
