a French theologian and doctor of the Sorbonne, was born at Blois in 1638, and died at Paris, April 17, 1718. He is the author of, Pratique du Sacrement de Pezitence (Paris, 1714, 1729), better known as the Pratique de Verdun. He also wrote Theologia Dogmatica et Moralis ad Usum Seminarii Catalaunensis (Lyons, 1709-12, 7 volumes), which was attacked and condemned by Fednlon. Being opposed to the bull Unigenitus, Habert was exiled in 1714, and only returned to Paris after the death of Louis XIV. See Lichtenberger, Encyclop. des Sciences Religieuses, s.v.; Agricola, Bibl.
