Panhypocrisiade

La Panhypocrisiade, ou la comédie infernale du seizième siècle (The Panhypocrisiade, or The Infernal Comedy of the Sixteenth Century) is a poem in sixteen cantos by Louis Jean Népomucène Lemercier, composed essentially under the French Consulate but not published until 1819 (see 1819 in poetry). The work is similar to Tragiques by Agrippa d'Aubigné, which has a similar style. The poem contains a conversation between a worm and Death, the complaints of an oak tree assailed by soldiers, an argument between Martin Luther and the Devil, and a visit to Rabelais by Reason personified, among other étrangetés.

Paul Bairoch

Paul Bairoch (24 July 1930 in Antwerp – 12 February 1999 in Geneva) was a (in 1985 naturalised) Swiss economic historian of Belgian descent who specialized in urban history and historical demography. He published or co-authored more than two dozen books and 120 scholarly articles. His most important works emphasize the agricultural preconditions necessary for industrialization and controversially claim, contrary to most scholars that colonization was not beneficial to colonial empires.

Guillaume d'Amiens

Guillaume d'Amiens or Guillaume le Peigneur (floruit late 13th century) was a trouvère and painter from Amiens. All his music is contained in one chansonnier (songbook) of Arras, now manuscript "Latin 1490" in the Bibliotheca Apostolica Vaticana. In it, the rubrics which accompany the songs identify Guillaume as a paigneur, "painter". He may even be the artist who added the large illumination which precedes his songs in the manuscript. The preservation of his works in a single book is an identical case to that of fellow trouvères Adam de la Halle and Jehannot de l'Escurel.
