    Set against the backdrop of the 1572 wedding of Marguerite de Valois and Henri de Navarre, the narrative explores the swift transition from celebration to the brutal massacre of Protestants in Paris. Arlette Jouanna challenges traditional interpretations, arguing that the violence stemmed from a calculated attempt to reinforce royal authority rather than conspiracy. This pivotal event prompted deep reflections on royal power, obedience, and the perils of religious conflict, influencing France's path toward absolutism. The work combines extensive research with accessible writing for historians and general readers alike.

    A new English translation. Looks at the most notorious massacre in early modern European history and rejects most of the established accounts, especially those privileging conspiracy. Based on extensive research and a careful examination of existing interpretations, this is the most authoritative analysis of a shattering event. -- .
