Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BOS-BRI
BOULAINVILLIERS, HENRI, COMTE DE (1658-1722) ,
French
  political writer, was
born
  at St Saire in Normandy in 1658. He was educated at the college of Juilly, and served in the army until 1697. He wrote a number of historical works (published after his death), of which the most important were the following: Histoire de l'ancien gouvernement de la
France
  (La Haye, 1727); Etat de la
France
 , avec des memoires sur l'ancien gouvernement (London, 1727); Histoire de la pairie de France (London, 1753); Histoire des Arabes (1731). His writings are characterized byan extravagant admiration of the feudal
system
 . He was an aristocrat of the most pronounced type, attacking
absolute
 
monarchy
  on the one hand and popular government on the other. He was at
great
  pains to prove the pretensions of his own family to
ancient
 
nobility
 , and maintained that the government should be entrusted solely to men of his class. He died in Paris on the 23rd of January 1722.
