At the end of his life the library held 35,000 works and 2,000 manuscripts, but all his collections were dispersed after his death and were mostly sold to Clairvaux Abbey. Works ...

Bishop Of Dijon
The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Dijon (Latin: ''Archidioecesis Divionensis''; French: ''Archidiocèse de Dijon'') is a diocese of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic Church in France. The archepiscopal see is Dijon Cathedral, which is located in the city of Dijon. The diocese comprises the entire department of Côte-d'Or, in the Region of Bourgogne. Originally established as the Diocese of Dijon in 1731, and suffragan to the Archdiocese of Lyon, the diocese was elevated to the rank of archdiocese in 2002. The most significant jurisdiction change occurred after the Concordat of 1801, when the diocese annexed the department of Haute-Marne. In 1821, a Papal Bull re-established the Diocese of Langres.

Président à Mortier
The ''président à mortier'' () was one of the most important legal posts of the French ''Ancien Régime''. The ''présidents'' were principal magistrates of the highest juridical institutions, the ''parlements'', which were the appeal courts. They numbered 11 in 1789. They were spread over chambers, comprising those who were counsellor to the parliament, who assessed and dispensed justice, and ''présidents'' who chaired sessions. The most important chamber was the ''Grand'Chambre''. Its presidents, to mark their status as superior to that the presidents of lower chambers, took the ''mortier'', a black velvet ''toque'' with two gold braid ribbons. The position was venal, being freely bought, sold and inherited, subject to payments to the King. In practice, the ''parlements consent was needed, and a law examination was required. This limited candidates to those with an academic background in law. After 20 years, the position brought entry to the ''noblesse The concept of ...

Parlement De Bourgogne
A ''parlement'' (), under the French Ancien Régime, was a provincial appellate court of the Kingdom of France. In 1789, France had 13 parlements, the oldest and most important of which was the Parlement of Paris. While both the modern French term ''parlement'' (for the legislature) and the English word '' parliament'' derive from this French term, the Ancien Régime parlements were not legislative bodies and the modern and ancient terminology are not interchangeable. History Parlements were judicial organizations consisting of a dozen or more appellate judges, or about 1,100 judges nationwide. They were the courts of final appeal of the judicial system, and typically wielded power over a wide range of subjects, particularly taxation. Laws and edicts issued by the Crown were not official in their respective jurisdictions until the parlements gave their assent by publishing them. The members of the parlements were aristocrats, called nobles of the robe, who had bought or ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
