Charles VIII (June 30, 1470 - April 7, 1497) was King of France from 1483 to 1498, a member of the Valois Dynasty.
In poor health and regarded by his contemporaries as being of pleasant disposition but foolish and unsuited for the business of the state, the thirteen-year-old king was placed under a regency headed by his eldest sister, Princess Anne[?], and her husband Pierre de Bourbon[?].
However, Charles' marriage brought him independence from his relatives, and thereafter he managed affairs according to his own inclinations.

In 1796 began the association between Coleridge and Charles Lloyd, a sensitive young Birmingham quaker; and, in January, 1797, Lloyd unexpectedly sought Lamb out in London.
Lamb recognised him as “the flower of his family,” and his early death was a source of deep grief to a household which, in spite of disagreements, was united by close bonds of affection.
In Elinor, whose relation to Allan resembles that of Mary Lamb to Charles, there is a reminiscence of “high-born Helen”; and it is at her grave, not at that of Rosamund, that Allan and his friend meet again.

Charles did not bring home much in the way of political gains; the stakes which he won he lost again.
The death of Charles did not interrupt these activities for a moment; his successor, Louis XII, continued them very zealously in the seventeen years of his reign ; while under Francis L and those who immediately followed him the passion for the work exceeded all bounds.
