This text provides a short account of the reigns of Francis I (1515-47) and Henry II (1547-59). The second edition has been revised to included recent research and places more emphasis on social developments and patronage of the arts.

First published in 1984, Professor Knecht''s study quickly established itself as the best short account of the period. The reigns of Francis I and Henry II, spanning the first half of the sixteenth century, are one of the most colourful and formative periods of French history. In addition to examining the nature and effectiveness of their reigns, Professor Knecht also examines their foreign policies which brought them into conflict with other major powers. For this new edition the author has added a new chapter on patronage and the arts.
