Summary: "Les historiettes de Tallemant des Réaux, tome premier" by Tallemant des Réaux is a collection of memoirs written in the early 17th century. This work presents a series of anecdotes and reflections on notable figures and events from the history of France, specifically during the reign of Henri IV and beyond. With a focus on political intrigues, personal relationships, and vivid character portraits, the author aims to provide insights into life at court and the complexities of human nature. The opening of this collection introduces Tallemant's intention to recount stories and observations without heavy reliance on established historical narratives.

Tallemant touches on Henri's many affairs, challenges in governance, and entertaining anecdotes that reveal both the charm and flaws of the king.
