La Henriade

"Its publication, with the definitive title of La Henriade, was only possible after Voltaire was released and took place in London, in 1728. It was not possible to publish it in France, since the author had many adversaries in France. his country of origin, like the noble Guy-Auguste de Rohan, Count of Chabot. Despite the initial difficulties in its writing and publication, La Henriade is considered one of the most important Western epic poems written in the Modern Era, reaching several reprints, even in pre-revolutionary France, and being translated into other European languages, including Portuguese."
