Clergy From Toulouse
Clergy are formal leaders within established religions. Their roles and functions vary in different religious traditions, but usually involve presiding over specific rituals and teaching their religion's doctrines and practices. Some of the terms used for individual clergy are clergyman, clergywoman, clergyperson, churchman, and cleric, while clerk in holy orders has a long history but is rarely used. In Christianity, the specific names and roles of the clergy vary by denomination and there is a wide range of formal and informal clergy positions, including deacons, elders, priests, bishops, preachers, pastors, presbyters, ministers, and the pope.

Pierre De Langle
Pierre de Langle (6 March 1643, in Evreux – 12 April 1724, in Boulogne-Sur-Mer) was a French bishop and Jansenist theologian. Life At the request of his friend Bossuet, he was made tutor to Louis Alexandre, Count of Toulouse. He was abbot of Saint-Lôfrom 24 December 1694 ; in 1698, Louis XIV of France rewarded him for his teaching duties by making him bishop of Boulogne, nominating him on 29 March 1698, with the bulls to that effect coming out on 15 September the same year. De Langle did little of note until the publication of the papal bull ''Unigenitus'', in response to which he published his 1717 ''Mandement''. This was an appeal but led to his disgrace at court and violence in his diocese, with the inhabitants of Calais rising in rebellion and those of Quernes beating de Langle with sticks and throwing stones when he visited them. He thus became part of the 'Appelant' movement alongside Jean Soanen, Pierre de La Broue Pierre de La Broue (8 February 1644, Toulouse - 20 ...

Jean Soanen
Jean Soanen (1647–1740) was a French Oratorian and bishop of Senez. He was a convinced Jansenist. In opposition to the papal bull ''Unigenitus'', he with Charles-Joachim Colbert, bishop of Montpellier, Pierre de la Broue who was bishop of Mirepoix, and Pierre de Langle who was bishop of Boulogne, appealed against it in 1717 to a general council. This group and their followers were known as ''Appellants''; the council was though entirely hypothetical as an idea. Later, he sent out a pastoral letter to his congregation, urging the reading of Pasquier Quesnel. Pierre Guérin de Tencin, the archbishop of Embrun, then in 1727 had him exiled from his diocese.William Doyle, ''Jansenism'' (2000), p. 53.

Jean IV Soanen, the Oratorian, noted for his opposition to the Bull "Unigenitus", was Bishop of Senez from 1696 until the time of his deposition in 1727. By the Concordat of 1801, the diocese of Digne was made to include the two departments of the Hautes-Alpes and Basses Alpes, in addition to the former diocese of Digne, the archdiocese of Embrun, the dioceses of Gap, Sisteron, and Senez, a very considerable part of the diocese of Glandèves and diocese of Riez, and fourteen parishes in the Archdiocese of Aix and the Diocese of Apt. In 1822 Gap was made an episcopal see and, thus divested of the department of the Hautes Alpes, the present diocese of Digne covers the territory formerly included in the dioceses of D ...
