Overview

Excerpt from Histoire de France, Vol. 9: Depuis les Origines Jusqu'a la Revolution; I, Regne de Louis XVI (1774-1789) Les partisans de Choiseul craignirent que Maurepas ne barrat la route a leur chef. Voltaire trouva mediocre le choix que le Roi avait fait de ce conseiller; il ecrivit Rien de mieux a faire pour les Francais que d'etre doux et aimables; M. De Maurepas est le premier homme du monde pour les parades Mais les poetes officiels comparerent Louis XVI a Telemaque, et des medailles furent frappees ou l'on voyait le Roi sous la garde d'une Minerve qui ressemblait a Maurepas.
