Guillaume Briçonnet

Briçonnet, Guillaume (1472-1534), was successively bishop of Lodève (1489) and Meaux (1516) and leading spirit among the Evangelicals. His correspondence (1521-4) with Marguerite d'Alençon [de Navarre], full of mystical piety, and his innovations in worship and preaching in his diocese, are attractive and influential features of the early Reformation in France.
