-
A noted French pulpit orator and journalist; born at Recey-sur-Ource, May 12, 1802; died at Soreze, Nov. 22, 1861. He became famous as a preacher at Notre Dame, speaking from the pulpit on the questions of the day, and was a member of the National Assembly. With Lamennais, he founded the democratic journal L'Avenir (The Future: 1830), which was condemned by the Pope. Among his works were: "Philosophical Considerations on the System of Lamennais" (1834); "Life of St. Dominic" (1840); "Detached Sermons and Funeral Orations" (1844-47), the most impressive of which was the oration preached over the remains of Gen. Drouot; and a voluminous correspondence.
