Une foi, une loi, un roi? La Revocation de l'Edit de Nantes

Elisabeth Labrousse's Une foi, une loi, un roi? is a scholarly French language history, published by Payot, of the 1685 revocation of the Edict of Nantes, the act that ended official toleration of Protestantism in France and drove large scale Huguenot emigration. Labrousse was a recognized historian of early modern French Protestantism, and the book's authority rests on close archival research into the political and religious reasoning behind the revocation, situating it within Louis XIV's broader religious policy rather than treating it as an isolated event. Its title, one faith, one law, one king, names the ideology the revocation asserted. Its limit is the ordinary one for a focused study of the revocation itself, so a claim about the Huguenot diaspora's later history in other countries needs a source covering that separate emigration history.
