Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. In this book, the author presents an English-language translation of a rarely-seen 18th-century French satire. Its author, Jean-Nicholas Moreau, uses the backdrop of an assembly of gods to critique the rulers of his time. Among the gods, three candidates for the title of the "best king" present their cases. The Emperor of Morocco, the King of Prussia, and the Queen of Hungary each detail the virtues of their rule, often in ludicrous and unflattering detail. The King of Prussia, in particular, is repeatedly mocked for his vanity, arrogance, and warmongering. Through the lens of these divine candidates and their foibles, the book offers a biting commentary on the nature of kingship and rule, questioning the morality and leadership of the most powerful figures of the era.
