The Edict of Nantes, passed in 1598, established an uneasy truce between the Protestants and Roman Catholics in France. This volume traces the evolution of French Protestantism from sectarianism in the 16th century, to social conformity and ambivalence in the 17th and, in the 18th, to an increasing openness to other traditions.
