Section A
Answer Question 01.
Source A
From a memoir intended for publication to instruct his future heir, by Louis XIV, March
1661. Louis reflects on the lessons he had learned from Cardinal Mazarin.
Regarding the nobility, the late Cardinal told me to value the nobles and treat them with
confidence and kindness during my reign. For members of the parlements, it is right to
honour them, but it is very important to make sure that they do not get out of hand. The
parlements must stick within the limits of their duties and not try to take power away from
the Crown. A good king is obliged to relieve his people, not just from the taille, but from 5
other burdens. To do this a king needs to be able to see and hear his subjects in the
provinces. To do this, a king needs capable and loyal servants, and it is down to the king
to decide what each one is best suited to do and employ them according to their talents.
The king must ensure that everyone is persuaded that he is the master; that favours
should be sought from him alone. 10
Source B
From a private diary entry of a Dutchman at the French court, March 1661. 1661 was a
time of peace between France and the Dutch Republic.
People here in Paris, since the death of the Cardinal, speak with admiration of the
resolve of the King to take charge of government. It is said that the King only makes use
of three ministers for advice: superintendent Fouquet, Le Tellier, and Lionne, the first on
finance, the second on matters relating to war, and the third on foreign affairs. The King
has formed a private council which excludes everyone else, which allows him to take 5
control of the affairs of state. Everyone agrees that the young King conducts his
business with gentleness towards those he has dealings with and with much patience
whilst listening to what one has to say to him. All of this wins people’s hearts. He
expresses himself with great strength which surprises those who hear him talking about
affairs of the council as, previously, it had been Cardinal Mazarin who was the master of 10
everything. It is clear that France is prospering at the hands of this young King, despite
years of war.
