This book investigates the procedures employed to restrict the civil rights of French Protestants in the decades leading up to the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. It details how Protestants were systematically excluded from municipal councils, denied access to universities, and barred from participating in the administration of their own communities. The author traces the development of this process from its origins in the religious wars of the 16th century, through its codification in a series of royal decrees and arrêts, to its culmination in the revocation of the Edict. The book also examines the role played by the Catholic Church, the provincial assemblies, and the royal bureaucracy in this campaign, arguing that it was driven by a combination of political, religious, and economic motives. Ultimately, it shows how the erosion of Protestant civil rights was a key step in the process of state-building and religious uniformity in early modern France.
