a French Jesuit, was born at Bordeaux about the middle of the 17th century. He was sent as missionary to China in 1685, and, after a stay of some years in the mission of Shensee (Chensi), returned to France, and published in 1696 Memoirs on the present State of China, a work which was censured by the faculty of theology. He died in 1729.
