Lefevre d'etaples, Jacques (sh)




born 1455, etaples, Picardy
died March 1536, Nerac, France

French humanist, theologian, and translator.

Ordained a priest, he taught philosophy in Paris (1490-1507), after which he worked with the abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Pres. When suspected of Protestantism, he moved temporarily to Strasbourg and later to Nerac, where he was protected by the queen of Navarra. Casting off the influence of medieval Scholasticism, he promoted scriptural studies on the eve of the Reformation. He translated the Bible into French and wrote commentaries on St. Paul as well as philosophical and mystical works.
