Paul Thureau-Dangin

Paul Thureau-Dangin (14 December 1837 – 24 February 1913), member of the Académie française (1893, later Perpetual Secretary), was a historian of the reign of Louis-Philippe and also of the revival of Catholic thought (in the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of England) in nineteenth century Britain. Thureau-Dangin reconciled his liberal Catholic position with support for republican ideals. He died in Paris on 24 February 1913.
