Digne Cathedral
Digne Cathedral (french: Cathédrale Saint-Jérome de Digne) is a Roman Catholic church architecture, church located in the town of Digne-les-Bains, France. The cathedral has been a ''monument historique'' since 1906. It is the seat of the Bishops of Digne, Riez and Sisteron, formerly Bishops of Digne. Construction began in 1490 by the order of the then bishop Antoine de Guiramand to cater for the movement of the town's population to a higher, more secure and defensible location round the local castle. The cathedral was renovated and expanded in the 1860s under the direction of architect Antoine-Nicolas Bailly. The previous cathedral in the old town, Notre-Dame-du-Bourg (''Cathédrale Notre-Dame-du-Bourg de Digne''), a late Romanesque architecture, Romanesque building of the 13th century, still stands as a museum.

In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...
