Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Histoire du Si�cle de Louis XIV, Vol. 3: Chapters XXV-XXXVI
The present volume concludes our edition of Vol taire's 'si�cle de Louis XIV.' We have omitted the last three chapters, since, from the subtlety of the questions involved, and the manner of treatment, they appear unfitted for school use. A few other pas sages, unsuitable in a book designed for educational purposes, have been suppressed, without any damage, we believe, either to the sequence of the narrative or the completeness of the review. We have done our best to make it as complete as possible by adding a variety of historical and other tables. The bio graphical index contains references to all the persons mentioned in the notes and supplementary matter as well as in the text, and comprises a copious list of the memoirs, letters, pi�ces justÿ�calives, etc. Which illustrate so strikingly the reign of Louis XIV.
