Summary: "History of the Protestants of France, from the commencement of the Reformation..." by G. de Felice is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work chronicles the development and struggles of the Protestant movement in France from the Reformation's inception to more contemporary times. The book appears to delve into the key figures, events, and broader societal implications surrounding the Protestant faith's rise and the Catholic Church's response. The opening of the text introduces the context in which the Reformation first emerged in France, particularly focusing on the initial spread of reformist ideas spearheaded by figures such as Jacques Lefevre and Guillaume Farel in the town of Meaux. The author outlines a burgeoning movement that sought to challenge the prevailing Catholic doctrines, highlighting both the increasing interest among the populace and the mounting resistance from the established church authorities. As enthusiasm for the new teachings unfolded, early converts faced severe persecution, with individuals like Jean Leclerc and Louis de Berquin becoming martyrs for their beliefs. This sets the stage for an exploration of the ongoing conflict between competing religious ideologies in France, suggesting a rich narrative of both trial and resilience.
