| Summary | "Journal de Jean Héroard - Tome 1" by Jean Héroard is a historical account written in the early 17th century. This work chronicles the childhood and youth of Louis XIII, specifically from his birth in 1601 until 1610, offering insights into the royal family and court life during that period through the eyes of his personal physician. It serves as a detailed memoir that captures the intricacies of Louis XIII's upbringing, education, and familial relations. The opening of the text introduces Jean Héroard, the royal physician, who began documenting his observations on Louis XIII from the day of the prince's birth. As the narrative unfolds, the author recounts the circumstances surrounding the birth and the early days of the Dauphin's life, highlighting the dynamics within the royal family, including the relationships between Henri IV, Marie de Médicis, and their offspring. The early journal entries reflect on formative events, daily routines, and the evolving character of the young Louis, providing a glimpse into the royal household's atmosphere and the expectations placed upon him as the future king.
