The arts of the See also:barrister were not to his See also:taste; he turned to the study of See also:jurisprudence and literature, and in 1546 was appointed lecturer in See also:Roman Law at the university of Paris. The fortitude of See also:Anne Dubourg under See also:torture gained his See also:adhesion to the cause of Reform. Giving up a career on which he had entered with high repute, he went in 1547 to See also:Lyons, and thence to See also:Geneva and to See also:Lausanne, where, on the recommendation of See also:Calvin, he was appointed See also:professor of belles-lettres and See also:history, and married Claudine Aubelin, a refugee from Orleans.

king. As See also:agent for the See also:Huguenots, he was sent to See also:Blois to negotiate the See also:peace of 1568. He returned to Bourges, only to be again driven away by the outbreak of hostilities. At See also:Sancerre, during its See also:siege, he composed his Consolatio (published in 1593). The peace of 1570 restored him to Bourges, whence a third time he fled, in See also:con-sequence of the St See also:Bartholomew See also:massacre (1572). In 1573, after See also:publishing his Franco-Gallia, he See also:left See also:France for ever with his family, and became professor of Roman law at Geneva.

Hotman was a See also:man of pure See also:life, real piety (as his Consolatio shows) and warm domestic virtues. His See also:constant removals were inspired less by fear for himself than by care for his family, and by a temperament averse to the conditions of warfare, and a constitutional See also:desire for peace. He did much for 16th-See also:century jurisprudence, having a See also:critical knowledge of Roman See also:sources, and a See also:fine Latin See also:style. He broached the See also:idea of a See also:national See also:code of French law. His See also:works were very numerous, beginning with his De gradibus cognationis (1546), and including a See also:treatise on the See also:Eucharist (1566); a treatise (See also:Anti-Tribonien, 1567) to show that French law could not be based on Justinian; a life of See also:Coligny (1575); a polemic (Brulum fulmen, 1585) directed against a See also:bull of See also:Sixtus V., with many other works oh law, history, politics and classical learning. His most important See also:work, the Franco-Gallia (1573), was in advance of his age, and found favour neither with Catholics nor with Huguenots in its See also:day; yet its See also:vogue has been compared to that obtained later by See also:Rousseau's Contrat Social. It presented an ideal of See also:Protestant statesmanship, See also:pleading for a representative See also:government and an elective See also:monarchy. It served the purpose of the See also:Jesuits in their pamphlet See also:war against Henry IV.
