Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Revue des Questions Historiques, 1888, Vol. 43: Vingt-Deuxi�me Ann�e
La lutte a �t� longue et rude, terrible parfois, car elle �tait dirig�e contre des abus enracin�s depuis longtemps; on ne renonce gu�re du jour au lendemain � des habitudes de liberti nage, et, comme la vente des b�n�fices eccl�siastiques �tait pour la soci�t� la�que une importante source de revenus, interdire ce commerce illicite c'�tait blesser a l'endroit sensible plus d'un grand seigneur.
