  Francois Hotman - LoveToKnow 1911
FRANCOIS HOTMAN (1524-1590), French publicist, eldest son of Pierre Hotman, was born on the 23rd of August 1524, at Paris, his family being of Silesian origin.
Giving up a career on which he had entered with high repute, he went in 1547 to Lyons, and thence to Geneva and to Lausanne, where, on the recommendation of Calvin, he was appointed professor of belles-lettres and history, and married Claudine Aubelin, a refugee from Orleans.
Hotman was a man of pure life, real piety (as his Consolatio shows) and warm domestic virtues.

 Cleric-diplomats and the sixteenth-century French state. - Encyclopedia.com
For example, Francois Hotman, who wrote the Francogallia in 1573 to justify revolution by the people in the face of tyranny and a broken contract, was asked by Henri de Navarre in 1585 to refute the Catholic League's goal of justifying revolution in order to preserve Roman Catholic orthodoxy.
Francois Hotman served as a diplomat for Henri IV, but he was not a cleric, and he was more Huguenot than politique until 1576.
Although Francois de Noailles began his career sponsored by the Chatillon family, he looked successfully to the Guises for favor while Francois II was king, and ended his career as a client of Villeroy, Catherine's secretary of state.

The Portuguese jurist, Govea, taught at Valence, 1554-55; the French jurist, Cujas (1522-90), from December 1557 to 1559; and Francois Hotman from the end of 1562 until August 1568.
It was at the instigation of Hotman that Bishop Montluc obtained from Charles IX the Edict of 8 April, 1565, which united the Universities of Grenoble and Valence.
Hotman was a determined Protestant; Cujas passed from Protestantism to Catholicism, but it is doubtful if his conversion was inspired entirely from religious motives.

 Jean Bodin: Six Books of the Commonwealth: Introduction
The liberty that men enjoyed in that primitive natural society was assumed not to have been lost — as Calvin thought it had been lost — but to be inalienable, and its preservation the foundation of all legitimate political authority.
Such views were being expressed by François Hotman in his Franco-Gallia of 1573, and a short while after the publication of the Six books of the Commonwealth in the Vindiciae contra tyrannos of 1579.
But he did not, as did Hotman and the author of the Vindiciae contra tyrannos, hold that such an obligation is compatible with freedom only when the citizen consents to law and government.

 Laboring with Calvin
The study of Law fared better than that of Medicine, but the eminent teachers that were called to lecture were very inadequately compensated for their work or proved restless for other reasons, and made but a short tarry.
This was the case with Hotman, after the Massacre of Saint Bartholomew’s Day (1572).
That in the end they escaped the fate to which one, if not both, of them seemed likely to be consigned, was due to no foresight of theirs, but to a circumstance beyond the reach of human prescience—the speedy and sudden death of the boy-king, Francis II.

The discussions in Essays II and III on constitutionalism and absolutism in Hotman and Bodin set these figures in their own time and facilitate the reader's understanding of how they were interpreted in seventeenth-century Germany, England, the Netherlands, Italy, and Spain.
Essay II, which counterpoises Hotman and Bodin, also provides the first example of a technique which Salmon uses repeatedly, that of juxtaposing two figures, usually contemporaries who interacted at least intellectually (and often personally), and then discussing them comparatively, in a kind of dual biography.
This method is very effective in Salmon's hands and not only serves to illustrate the individual lives but also brings out major themes and issues of the time.

Jean Boudin's (1530-1596) Six livres de la République (1576), was an outstanding work that ultimately advocated royal absolutism, although emphasizing the mutual responsibilities of king and people.
The Huguenot François Hotman’s Francogallia (1573) represented the other side of the coin: proposing an ancient Frankish constitution that superseded the rights of kings, who derived their right to rule from the consent of the people.
The Huguenots made a considerable contribution to the theory of resistance in mid-century.
