| Summary | "Histoire de France 1305-1364 (Volume 4/19)" by Jules Michelet is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on pivotal events in France during the early 14th century, particularly the political dynamics under King Philippe le Bel and the controversial fate of the Knights Templar. The text delves into themes of power, feudalism, and the evolving nature of wealth and governance, reflecting on how these elements shaped the French identity during this transformative period. At the start of the work, the author introduces the 14th century as a significant national era for France, marked by the emergence of important institutions like the États Généraux and the Parliament. The opening continues with a vivid portrayal of the rising importance of gold as a symbol of wealth and power, illustrating Philippe le Bel's radical shift towards a more fiscally-driven monarchy. The narrative further examines the corruption and accusations surrounding the Knights Templar, detailing their wealth, rivalries, and the eventual betrayal by both the state and the church that led to their downfall. This opening sets the stage for a deep exploration of the complex interplay between religious institutions and the state during one of France's most tumultuous times.
