| Summary | "Chroniques de J. Froissart, tome 04/13 : 1346-1356" by Jean Froissart is a historical account written in the late 14th century. This volume focuses on the events surrounding the Siege of Calais, detailing the political and military struggles during the tumultuous years of the Hundred Years' War. The narrative captures the experiences and challenges of key figures involved, providing insights into the broader conflicts between England and France. The opening of the tome introduces the complex circumstances of the Siege of Calais initiated by Edward III of England. It describes the defensive measures undertaken by the French garrison, led by Jean de Vienne, to withstand the protracted assault by the English forces. The passage lays the groundwork for the ongoing conflict and highlights the desperation of the inhabitants, who begin to face famine as the siege drags on. The tension builds as both sides maneuver politically and militarily, setting the stage for the eventual resolution of the siege and depicting themes of valor, sacrifice, and the harsh realities of war.
