Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Fenelon, Archbishop of Cambray, to Which Are Added, the Lives of St. Vincent of Paul, and Henri-Marie De Boudon: A Letter on Antient and Modern Music; And Historical Minutes of the Society of Jesus A life of Fenelon has been published in four volumes octavo, by the cardinal de Bausset, bishop of Alais at the beginning of the French revolution, and afterwards member of the imperial chapter of the church of St. Denis at Paris. He seems to have had access to all the papers in the possession of the family of Fenelon, which could be of use to him, in the composition of his work. From the work of his eminence, the following account of the life of Fenelon is principally extracted. The village of Salignac, from which the family of Fenelon took its title, lies at the distance of about two leagues from Sarlât: in 1460, it was raised to a barony. On the decease of Anthony de Salignac, governor of Peregord and Limousin under John d´Albret, king of Navarre, it descended to his eldest son, and, on the decease of that son without issue male, it descended to his daughter and heiress. She married into the house of Birlo, and on her marriage it was stipulated that the descendants of it should use the surname and arms of Salignac, with their family surname and arms. The surname of Salignac was also used by the younger son of Anthony de Salignac. From him, Fenelon, the subject of these pages, lineally descended. Bernard, his great grandfather, was sent ambassador by the court of France to queen Elizabeth; and history mentions to his honour, that, when he was desired by his court to justify to her the massacre at Paris on St. Bartholomew´s day, he refused the unwarrantable commission.
