Memoires
(1613-1649)
by cardinal de Retz, edited by Simone Bertiere
La Conjuration du comte de Fiesque serves as an introduction to the great work that is the Memoires, revealing how Cardinal de Retz appropriated the genre. His subtle irony reveals the fundamental weakness of even “the most illustrious” human beings, emphasizing that even the best strategists can fail.
