Louis II de Bourbon (1621-86), known as Le Grand Conde, stood alongside Richelieu and Mazarin as one of the key figures who shaped the reign of Louis XIV. In response to profound upheavals in their world, his contemporaries looked to him to satisfy their need for a hero. Originally the warrior-hero par excellence, Conde was redefined by successive generations as the ideal subject of the absolutist state, as the epitome of civilized behaviour and, finally, as the exemplar of the triumph of faith over reason. In this first detailed study in English of Le Grand Condes significance for his contemporaries, Mark Bannister reveals the complexity of the ideological patterns forming and reforming in seventeenth-century France, and the perennial need to believe in the existence of an iconic figure, incarnating new values as they emerge.

Guide
I owe a considerable debt of gratitude to the staff of the many libraries in which I have sought out often little-known seventeenth-century texts and manuscripts and would make special mention of those at the Muse Cond in Chantilly, the Taylor Institution in Oxford, and the Bibliothque Mazarine and the Bibliothque de l'Arsenal in Paris. I am grateful, too, to my colleagues at Oxford Brookes University, particularly Sen Hand, Nick Hewlett, Valerie Worth-Stylianou and Barry Russell, for their support and encouragement over the period when this book was in the making, and to the university itself for its practical support in terms of time and finance. And, certainly not least, my thanks go to my wife, Kathy, for her patience and support throughout the enterprise.
