| Summary | "Memoirs of Marguerite de Valois, Queen of Navarre — Volume 3" by Marguerite is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the intricate history of the House of Valois, detailing significant events and key figures in both French and Navarre courts throughout the centuries. It intertwines courtly intrigues with political machinations, exploring the lineage and conflicts that shaped France during this tumultuous era. The opening of the memoir dives directly into the lineage of Charles, Comte de Valois, and the implications of succession laws following the birth of a daughter to Charles IV. It discusses the decision-making processes and rivalries that ultimately led to Philip of Valois ascending the throne, as well as insights into power struggles, wars with England, and the complexities of governance in a feudal monarchy. The narrative reflects upon the harsh realities faced by both the rulers and the ruled, highlighting themes of ambition, conflict, and political maneuvering among various factions vying for control, setting the stage for the historical developments that would follow in the kingdom of France.
