Nicole Gilles (1425-1503) was a French historiographer. He is known to have been royal secretary in February 1475. He soon became associated with the Parisian printer and bookseller Antoine V\u00e9rard. Written in the 1490s, it provides a history of the French monarchy from its Trojan origins to the reign of Louis XI. First published posthumously in 1525, the Annalles<\/i> was a highly successful work and went through number of editions. Jean Bouchet completed Nicole Gilles’ account up to 1519. Gilles is credited with coining the expression “the Hundred Years’ War” to describe the “memory of the war against England”.<\/p>\n
