| Summary | "Un frère de Nicolas Foucquet: François, Archevêque de Narbonne; Exilé à Alençon" by Louis Duval is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book focuses on François Foucquet, the brother of Nicolas Foucquet, and details his life, particularly during his exile in Alençon following the fall from grace of his brother, who was a prominent figure in the court of Louis XIV. It delves into themes of familial loyalty, religious duties, and the socio-political landscape of 17th century France. The narrative traces François's early life, education, and eventual rise to become the Archbishop of Narbonne. After Nicolas's arrest and the subsequent disgrace of their family, François is forced into exile. The text documents his efforts to maintain the family’s dignity, his ecclesiastical responsibilities, and his contributions to his new community in Alençon. Despite facing the trials of exile, he leaves a significant legacy through charitable acts and the establishment of institutions, reflecting a life committed to service and faith amidst adversity. The account serves not only as a biography of an important religious figure but also as a window into the challenges faced by the clergy during a turbulent period in French history.
