François Nepveu

François (Francis) Nepveu (29 April 1639—17 February 1708) was a writer on ascetical subjects.

Biography

Nepveu entered the novitiate of the Society of Jesus on 12 October 1654, when but fifteen years old. Successively professor of Grammar, of Humanities and Rhetoric for six years, and of Philosophy for eight years, he was afterwards employed in the government. In 1689 he was made superior at Nantes; in 1684 rector at Vannes; in 1694 and 1700 rector at Orléans; in 1697 at Rouen; in 1704 Rennes where he was director of retreats until his death on 17 February 1708.

The Catholic Encyclopedia describes Nepveu as "a man of great zeal and intelligence."
