This See also:work, composed almost entirely from documents, many unpublished, opened a new See also:field for See also:historical study. Twenty years later he supplemented this book by an interesting collection of Documents relatifs a l'histoire de t'industrie et du See also:commerce en See also:France (2 vols., 1898-1900), and in 1897 he published L'Economie sociale de la France sous See also:Henri IV, a See also:volume containing the results of very See also:minute See also:research. He did not, however, confine himself to economic See also:history. His Le Pere See also:Joseph et See also:Richelieu (1894), though somewhat frigid and severe, is based on a massof unpublished See also:information, and shows remarkable psychologic grasp. In 1878 his See also:Journal parisien de Jeats de Maupoint, See also:prieur de Ste See also:Catherine-de-la-See also:Couture was published in vol. iv. of the Memoires de la societe de l'histoire de Paris et de l'Ile de France. He wrote numerous articles in the Revue historique (of which he was co-director with See also:Gabriel See also:Monod for some years) and in other learned reviews, such as the Revue des questions historiques and the Journal des savants. • In 1901 he was elected member of the Academie,des Sciences Morales et Politiques.
