1686 1ed Huguenot Persecution
Jean Claude French Protestants Wars of Religion
Jean Claude was a 17th-century
Protestant pastor who was exiled from France in 1685. Shortly after he arrived
in Holland, he wrote ‘Complaints of the Protestant Cruel Oppression’. It was
written with the sole purposes of attacking the oppression of protestants in
France. Curiously, it was banned throughout France and the English
translation didn’t fare much better in London – copies were seized and burned!
A rare first edition
of the religious feuds between Protestants and Huguenots and religious
persecution in 17th-century France.
