Memoirs of Cardinal De Retz V1 is a book written by the French Cardinal Jean Fran�����ois Paul de Gondi, also known as Cardinal de Retz. The book is a first-person account of the cardinal's life and times, including his involvement in the Fronde rebellion in France during the mid-17th century. The memoirs provide insights into the political and social climate of the time, as well as the personal experiences and motivations of the cardinal. The book is written in a lively and engaging style, with vivid descriptions of the people and events that shaped the cardinal's life. It is considered a classic of French literature and an important historical document. This is the first volume of the memoirs, which covers the cardinal's early life and his experiences in the court of Louis XIII.By the caprice of fortune many mistakes of mine have turned to my credit, and I very much doubt whether it would be prudent in me to remove the veil with which some of them are covered. But as I am resolved to give you a naked, impartial account of even the most minute passages of my life ever since I have been capable of reflection, so I most humbly beg you not to be surprised at the little art, or, rather, great disorder, with which I write my narrativeThis scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
