Jules Bonnet

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jules Bonnet (born June 30, 1820 in Nîmes , † March 23, 1892 ibid) was a French church historian.

Life

Jules Bonnet attended the École normal supérieure in Paris and became a professor of history, but gave up this teaching post in order to be able to fully represent his religious beliefs. He then worked in Paris as a lawyer and as editor-in-chief of the bulletins of the Société de l'histoire du protestantisme français , of which he was secretary since 1865. His studies on the history of the Italian Reformation movements and the publication of Calvin's letters ( Lettres françaises de Calvin , 2 vols., Paris 1854) at Mignet's suggestion also made him known in Germany. He was a member ofAcadémie des sciences morales et politiques . A few years after his death in 1892, Budé published the Lettres de Jules Bonnet 1851–1863 (Geneva 1898).
