Everything about Louis Abelly totally explained
Louis Abelly (
1603-
1691) was
Vicar-General of
Bayonne, a parish priest in
Paris, and subsequently
Bishop of Rodez in
1664, but in 1666 abdicated and attached himself to
St. Vincent de Paul in the House of St. Lazare, Paris (
Lazarists). His ascetical works reveal his deep and sincere piety. He was a bitter foe of the
Jansenists, chiefly of
St. Cyran, against whom he directed his
Life of St. Vincent de Paul, a work which
Hurter describes as "full of unction."
His
Medulla Theologica went through many editions, and is characterized by its "solidity, directness, and usefulness." According to
St. Alphonsus, Abelly is "a classic in
probabilism." His
Défense de la hiérarchie de l'Eglise was directed against an anonymous Gallican writer. He wrote also two
Enchiridions, one for bishops, another for priests; a treatise entitled
De l'obéissance et soumission due au Pape; and another called
Traité des Hérésies. Replying to a Jansenist work known as
Monita Salutaria, he published his
Sentiments des SS. Pères, touchant les excellences et les prérogatives de la T.S. Vierge.
