The following collected series of studies must be added: Texte und Untersuchungen zur Gesckichte der altckristlichen Litt., ed. voN Gebhardt and A.

G. (Halle, 18S9; 3rd ed., 1893); Seeberg, Lekrb. der D. G. (2 vols., Erlangen, 1895), conservative Protestant; Jgem, Grundriss der D. G.

Faunt, Lawrence Arthur, a Jesuit theologian; b. 1554; d. at Wilna, Poland, 28 February, 1590-91. After two years at Merton College, Oxford (1568-70) under the tuition of John Potts, a well-known philoso- pher, he went to the Jesuit college at Louvain where he took his B.A. After some time spent in Paris he entered the ITniversity of Munich under the patronage of Duke William of Bavaria, proceeding M.A. The date of his entrance into the Society of Jesus is dis- puted, some authorities giving 1570, others 1575, the year in which he went to the English College, Rome, to pursue his studies in theology. It is certain, how- ever, that on the latter occasion he added Lawrence to his baptismal name, Arthur. He was soon made pro- fessor of divinity and attracted the favourable atten- tion of Gregory XHI, who, on the establishment of the Jesuit college at Posen in 15S1, appointed him rector. He was also professor of Greek there for three years, of moral theology and controversy for nine more, and was held in highest repute among both ecclesiastical and secular authorities. His chief theological works are: "De Christi in terris Ecclesia, qutenam et penes quos existat" (Posen, 1584); "Ccenae Lutheranorum et Calvinistarum oppugnatio ac Catholicae Eucharis- tise defensio'* (Posen, 1586); "Apologia libri sui de invocatione ac veneratione Sanctorum" (Cologne, 15S9).

Fauriel, Charles-Claude, historian, b. at St- Etienne, France, 27 October, 1772; d. at Paris, 15 July, 1844. He studied first at the Oratorian College of Tournon, then at Lyons. He served in the army of the Pyr^nees-Orientales. Under the Directory Fouch^, an ex-Oratorian, attached him to his cabinet as pri- vate secretary. Under the Empire, he refused office in order to devote all his time to studj\ Fauriel adopted the new ideas of the Philosophers and the principles of the Revolution, but repudiated them in part in the later years of his life. He was an intense worker and knew Greek, Latin, Italian, German, English, San- skrit, and Arabic. It was he who made the merits of Ossian and Shakespeare known to the French public, and spread in France the knowledge of German litera- ture, which had been previously looked upon as unim- portant. He was one of the first to investigate Ro- mance literature, and the originality of his views in this direction soon popularized this new study. He also gathered the remnants of the ancient Basque and Celtic languages. The first works he published were a translation of "La Parthrnride" (Paris, 1811), an idyllic epic by the Danish poet, Baggesen, and of the tram'dy of his friend Manzoni, "II Conte di Carma- gnola " (Paris, lS2;i). The numerous linguistic and Mrcha'oldgical contributions which he wrote for various magazines wcni for him a great reputation among sclioliirs; it was said of him that "he was tlie man of the nineteenth century who put in circulation tlie most ideas, inaugurated the greatest number of branches of study, and gathered the greatest number of new
