Excerpt from The Life of Theodore Agrippa D'aubigne: Containing a Succinct Account of the Most Remarkable Occurrences During the Civil Wars of France, in the Reigns of Charles IX., Henry III., Henry IV., And the Minority of Lewis XIII Some may think the conduct of a man, who was not greatly exalted by birth, nor dignified by titles, nor rendered conspicuous by the splendor of r'iches, below their notice; but in his own words I will endeavour to obviate the objection. In the beginning of his private memoirs, he addresses his children, for whose use he wrote them, nearly to this effect.

The aim of this book is to bring the author to the attention of a greater number of general readers and to provide an introduction for the professional student of sixteenth-century literature. Little time is needed when undertaking an examination of the works of Agrippa d'Aubigné to realize the magnitude of the task, for the variety of his output bears witness to the manifold interests of this polymath, fearless Huguenot, and distinguished soldier. This study restricts itself to the works in French which can be described as "general literature." Although translations have been provided, the quotations are given generally in the original French, as so much of the poetry is lost in the transposition.
