We can say without exaggeration - this name is familiar to every Russian reader, thanks to the book of Alexander Dumas "Three Musketeers". However, assessments of the political activity of the "Red Cardinal" are still diverging radically. The well -mannered Dumas "Broad reader" traditionally refers to Richelieu hostility, but professional historians have long paid tribute to the strength and talent of this person, who actually had to withstand the undisguised hostility from the entire court of Louis XIII alone. Meanwhile, the conquests of Richelieu policies had a direct impact on the course of the history of the whole of Europe. Moreover, it was he who in France itself stopped the ready-to-elaborate a real civil war between Catholics and Protestants. And this is far from all! So who was he actually - Arman -Jean du Plessi -Richelieu - a spiritual leader, a brilliant politician or a sophisticated intriguer? These questions are answered by the new book of historian and writer Sergei Nechaev
