Murder, Justice, and Harmony in an Eighteenth-Century French Village

By Nancy Locklin

This microhistory tells of the murder of one woman at the hands of another in 1718. It offers an analysis of the social network of a village, a chaotic criminal justice system on the eve of modernization, and the possibility of restoring harmony after a community has been torn apart.
