Merge tag

[edit]

I have removed the merge tag and applied a redirect in the article which was suggested to merged in. The reason is simply that that article was no more than a copy-paste from Catholic Encyclopedia. So, if we'd need some info from that source, simply go at its site and put it here. --Attilios 18:37, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits

[edit]

An anon recently took it upon himself to change the article in a "more balanced version". He made some massive changes, which didn't seem to me, in a quick read, so bad an idea, and actually added details in the first subsection (concerning encyclical, etc.) But he also removed information in the last section, concerning links with Republicans, translation of Dante, etc. He might want to discuss his changes here, and edit in a slightly more progressive manner (mainly, avoid mixing deletion of contents with copy-editing).

Lamennais as editor in chief of Le Drapeau Blanc

[edit]

I looked in here for some information about Lammennais' editorship of Le Drapeau Blanc but find no mention of it - I was reading http://flagspot.net/flags/fr_rest.html - " Le Drapeau Blanc was the main opponent of Decazes' liberal cabinet. Villèle's ultraroyalist cabinet was also considered too weak by Martainville. At the end of 1822, Martainville appointed Lamennais editor-in-chief of Le Drapeau Blanc. Félicité de Lamennais (1782-1854) was the apologist of Ultramontanism against Gallicanism. The Ultramontanists defended the abolute power of the Pope and opposed to the Gallicans, who defended a relative independence of the French Roman Catholic church from the Holy See. The Ultramontanists eventually won with the proclamation of the papal infallibility in 1870 and the separation of church and state in 1905. Lamennais was disapproved by Pope Gregor XVI in 1832 and left the Roman Catholic church two years later. Le Drapeau Blanc became therefore the main enemy of Villèle and the Gallican Catholics. The Ultramontanist campaign reached its peak on 22 August 1823, through the 'Letter to the Great Master of the University', published in Le Drapeau Blanc. 'Great Master of the University' was the official title of His Grace Denis, Count de Frayssinous (1765-1841). Lamennais attacked Frayssinous, which was a way to attack the Gallicans without naming them. Villèle's reaction was terrible: Lamennais was forced to exile to Switzerland and Martainville had to abandon the leadership on the Drapeau Blanc, which was directed by a company funded by Baron d'Eckstein. Le Drapeau Blanc lost its independence and became Villèle's unofficial newspaper. Most subscribers left and Le Drapeau Blanc was published for the last time on 1 February 1827."DaiSaw (talk) 14:49, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

First name spelt Félicité

[edit]

It should be corrected in the heading. He was NEVER known as "Hughes" .

Hugues Felicité Robert de Lamennais → Félicité Robert de Lamennais – Félicité was never called "Hughes" even in his birth certificate neither than in his baptsim certificate hold in the archives of the congregation Frères de l'Instruction Chrétienne, Brothers of La Mennais. He was simply called Félicité. Marion Leconte (talk) 09:26, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Félicité de La Mennais is his usual name (see BNF). Robert is only his second name, rarely used.--RotachZ (talk) 12:28, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Somehow, in the English speaking world he seems to be known more as Hugues de Lamennais than as Felicité de Lamennais. See, for one, the Encyclopaedia Britannica entry that is cited as one of the public sources for the page. And, a second source, is the British historian Hugh Trevor-Roper, who in his book The Crisis of the Seventeenth Century, on page 42, also calls him Hugues de Lamennais. (Time permitting, I will add later the proper citations and/or links to this sources.) I just wanted to make an initial note of the fact here. Thank you, warshy (¥¥) 22:50, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
He is born as Félicité (first name) and Robert (last name). In the family Robert. Then the father got noble adding : "de la Mennais" as the name of a land property. Which gave Félicité ROBERT DE LA MENNAIS. I dont know where the first name "Hughes" come from, from which official archive ? See the baptism certificate here : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Extrait_du_registre_du_bapt%C3%AAme_F%C3%A9licit%C3%A9_ROBERT_de_la_Mennais,1782,_Saint-Malo.jpg Marion Leconte (talk) 16:17, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how to check the BNF mentioned above by RotachZ. I checked around and there is one more source in English in the article that uses the name Hugues-Felicité. It is the Encyclopedia of the 1848 Revolutions hostes somewhere at Ohio State University. I guess Hugh Trevor-Roper, and the Britannica must be wrong, since all other major Wikipedias (French, German, Spanish, Russian) use only Felicité Robert de Lamennais. Thank you, warshy (¥¥) 17:49, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

warshy, think RotachZ must be talking about this link from the Authority control box at the bottom of the article. There his name is given as "La Mennais, Félicité de", or in article-title format, "Félicité de La Mennais". P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 02:34, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Paine Ellsworth. At the top of that page, the recommended international name is "La Mennais, Félicité de (1782-1854)" (forme internationale/international format). I suggest we go with that for the name of the new page. Where the English language sites all got the "Hugues-" before it is still a mystery to me, but I suggest we go with the international format for the name, used everywhere except in some English language sites, for some reason. Thank you, warshy (¥¥) 19:03, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
