CAPEFIGUE , See also:JEAN-See also:BAPTISTE HONORS See also:RAYMOND (1801-1872), See also:French historian and biographer, was See also:born at See also:Marseilles in 18oi. At the See also:age of twenty he went to See also:Paris to study See also:law; but he soon deserted law for journalism. He became editor of the Quotidienne, and was afterwards connected, either as editor or leading contributor, with the Temps, the See also:Messager See also:des Chambres, the Revolution de 1848 and other papers. During the ascendancy of the Bourbons he held a See also:post in the See also:foreign See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office, to which is due the royalism of some of his newspaper articles. Indeed all Capefigue's See also:works receive their See also:colour from his legitimist politics; he preaches divine right and non-resistance, and finds polite words even for the profligacy of See also:- LOUIS
- LOUIS (804–876)
- LOUIS (893–911)
- LOUIS, JOSEPH DOMINIQUE, BARON (1755-1837)
- LOUIS, or LEWIS (from the Frankish Chlodowich, Chlodwig, Latinized as Chlodowius, Lodhuwicus, Lodhuvicus, whence-in the Strassburg oath of 842-0. Fr. Lodhuwigs, then Chlovis, Loys and later Louis, whence Span. Luiz and—through the Angevin kings—Hungarian
Louis XV. and the worthlessness of his mistresses. He wrote See also:biographies of See also:Catherine and See also:Marie de' See also:Medici, See also:Anne and Maria See also:Theresa of See also:Austria, Catherine II. of See also:Russia, See also:Elizabeth of See also:England, See also:Diana of See also:Poitiers and See also:Agnes Sorel—for he delighted in passing from " queens of the right See also:hand " to " queens of the See also:left." His See also:historical works, besides histories of the See also:Jews from the fall of the See also:Maccabees to the author's See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)
- TIME, MEASUREMENT OF

time, of the first four centuries of the See also:Christian See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

church, and of See also:European diplomatists, extend over the whole range of French See also:history. He died at Paris in See also:December 1872.
The See also:general See also:catalogue of printed books for the Bibliotheque Nationale contains no fewer than seventy-seven works (145 volumes) published by Capefigue during See also:forty years. Of these only the Histoire de Philippe-Auguste (4 vols., 1829) and the Histoire de la reforme, de la ligue et du regne de See also:Henri IV (8 vols., 1834–1835) perhaps deserve still to be remembered. For Capefigue's See also:style bears evident marks of haste, and although he had See also:access to an exception-ally large number of See also:sources of See also:information, includingthestatepapers, neither his accuracy nor his See also:judgment was to be trusted.
