Summary "Les grandes chroniques de France (4/6)" by Paulin Paris is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work chronicles significant events in French history, particularly focusing on the reign of King Philippe-Auguste and his contributions to the nation. The book aims to provide a detailed portrayal of the king's life, governance, and the unfolding of his significant milestones. The opening of the chronicle introduces King Philippe, born in the year 1165, and recounts the circumstances of his birth and the anxious moments leading up to his coronation. The text describes a vision experienced by his father, King Louis, regarding Philippe's future role as a ruler, emphasizing the divine support agreed upon by the royal family and the Church. It also details the events surrounding Philippe's delayed coronation due to an illness and his eventual crowning at the age of fourteen, serving as a prelude to his significant and active involvement in the governance of France. This segment sets the stage for a narrative that intertwines personal events with historical developments, highlighting the complexity of leadership during times of uncertainty.
