The Huguenots & the Law Revisited
This book began with an offhand reference to the special law courts mandated by the Edict of Nantes which I heard in a lecture during my first year in graduate school. In the intervening years, as it has developed from a seminar paper to a dissertation, through conference papers and essays to a monograph (with much revising in between), I have incurred many debts which it is now a pleasure to acknowledge. My research was funded by a Bourse Chateaubriand in 1987 through 1988, which enabled me to spend a second year reading seventeenth-century court documents in Paris, as well as later grants by the Department of History of the College of Charleston and the Professional Development Program at Colorado State University. A number of advisors, friends, and fellow scholars have sustained my work on the Chambre de l'Edit with their interest, comments, and suggestions: the late Harry Miskimin, Keith Luria, David Underdown, Lee Palmer Wandel, Amanda Eurich, Al Hamscher, Ron Love, Peter Sahlins, Maarten Ultee, Bertrand Van Ruymbeke, and Michael Wolfe. A special thanks to Ray Mentzer, who is in a sense the godfather of this project; had he not encouraged me to continue with it at a very early stage, it might never have reached the printed page. In Paris, Mme Marie-Noelle Baudouin-Matuszek provided invaluable assistance, friendship, and hospitality to a novice American graduate student, which have continued ever since our first meeting. The late M. Yves Metman offered some timely lessons in paleography, and Mme Marie-Aime Belle (along with her daughter Nadge) taught me a great deal about the Parisians of today while I was studying those of the early modern era. I also acknowledge the staffs of the Archives Nationales (now the Centre d'Accueil et des Recherches des Archives Nationales), the Bibliothque Nationale, the Bibliothque de la Socit de l'Histoire du Protestantisme Franais, the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, and Sterling Memorial Library at Yale University for their assistance.
Finally, I thank my parents for their love and support throughout my years of study, teaching, writing, and research. This book is dedicated to them.
[ix] I N F EBRUARY 1602, A H UGUENOT WEAPONRY MAKER NAMED N OEL B ILLOT stood before a panel of magistrates in a chamber of the Palais de Justice in Paris. A year earlier, the royal judge and prosecutor in Billots native town of Mcon had convicted him of using at various times in public places seditious language and discourse tending to scandal, against the edicts and rules of pacification.
The case of Noel Billot illustrates many of the issues explored in the pages that follow. This book is about litigants like Billot and the legal disputes they brought before the Paris Chambre de lEdit in seventeenth-century France. The chambers origins lay in the Wars of Religion of the later sixteenth century, when Huguenots feared the partisanship of the predominantly Catholic judiciary. In 1598, the Edict of Nantes declared an end to the warfare and provided a legal blueprint for future relations among Huguenots and Catholics in France. Its provisions reflected elements found in many previous edicts of pacification and offered an institutional guarantee of protection and privileges for the Huguenot minority: special law courts, composed of both Huguenot and Catholic magistrates, which would resolve disputes involving Huguenot litigants. Chambres mi-parties, so called because they included equal numbers of judges from both confessions, were [x] to be affiliated with the parlements of Grenoble, Bordeaux, Rouen, and Toulouse. A fourth court, christened the Chambre de lEdit or chamber of the edict, would be established for the Parlement of Paris. The Paris Chambre de lEdit functioned under this mandate until formally dissolved by royal edict in 1669.
