Justice to Merit in Monarchy and Its Advisers
Translation from Fenelon’s Examen of Confiance urging a king to appoint capable, virtuous ministers. It warns that rulers must know mankind through frank conversation and testing subordinates, lest flatterers and corrupt advisers mislead the realm, and stresses the duty to choose men fit for high posts. It notes the perils of reliance on self interested courtiers and the neglect of true talent.
