Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This intriguing book presents a collection of journal entries written between 1525 and 1550 by Jean Balard, a citizen of Geneva. Balard not only witnessed significant historical events during this era, but was also directly involved in some of the most pressing religious and political struggles of his time. As a member of Geneva's ruling elite, Balard was privy to the city's internal debates over its allegiance to the Duke of Savoy and the Protestant Reformation. His insider's perspective on these conflicts provides valuable insights into the complex social and political realities of 16th-century Europe. The author's detailed accounts of battles, diplomatic negotiations, and religious controversies offer a glimpse into the often-tumultuous relationship between Geneva and its powerful neighbors. Balard's own religious beliefs and his gradual disillusionment with the Catholic Church add further depth to this historical record. Through Balard's eyes, we encounter a world in flux, where traditional authority is challenged and new ideas take root. His journal is more than a historical document; it is a testament to the human experience during a time of profound transformation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780243583201_0
