French Bishops by Joseph Bergin

A study of the French upper clergy during the Catholic Reformation following the Council of Trent is undertaken in this work. In describing the creation, character and role of these early French bishops, the book also sheds light on such topics as social mobility and education.

Joseph Bergin is a Fellow of the British Academy and a professor of history at the University of Manchester. Cardinal Richelieu, The Formation of the French Episcopate, and Crown, Church, and Episcopate under Louis XIV, all published by Yale, are among his prior works.
