FRENCH REVOLUTION / DECHRISTIANIZATION / ABANDONMENT OF PRIE - Lot 69
FRENCH REVOLUTION / DECHRISTIANIZATION / ABANDONMENT OF PRIESTS / MARRIAGE OF PRIESTS. Second Supplement to the Bulletin of the National Convention. Continuation of the Session of the 3rd Frimaire of the second year of the One and Indivisible Republic (November 23, 1793). Poster (52 x 42 cm) printed in Paris by the Imprimerie Nationale, [1793]. Official Bulletin (No. 4) concerning dechristianization in Year II. The right half and the bottom of the document are almost entirely devoted to the publication of a long list of 58 clergymen (parish priests, vicars, canons, and constitutional bishops) from all the departments of France (Aube, Marne, Mayenne, Seine-et-Oise, Yonne, Cher, etc.) officially declaring that they are abdicating their positions and renouncing their status as priests. The text details their revolutionary motivations, their requests for civic assistance, and explicitly mentions, for several of them, their recent marriage or their intention to marry. Normal creases, tiny foxing spots, and minor damage along the edges.
