See also:QUESNEL, See also:PASQUIER (1634-1719) , See also:French Jansenist theologian, was See also:born in See also:Paris on the 14th of See also:July 1634, and, after graduating in the See also:Sorbonne with distinction in 1653, joined the French See also:Oratory in 1657. There he soon became prominent; but his Jansenist sympathies led to his banishment from Paris in 1681. He took See also:refuge with the friendly See also:Cardinal Coislin, See also:bishop of See also:- ORLEANS

Orleans; four years later, however, foreseeing that a fresh See also:storm of persecution was about to burst, he fled to See also:Brussels, and took up his See also:abode with See also:Antoine See also:Arnauld (q.v.). There he remained till 1703, when he was arrested by See also:- ORDER

order of the See also:archbishop of See also:Malines. After three months' imprisonment he made a highly dramatic See also:- ESCAPE (in mid. Eng. eschape or escape, from the O. Fr. eschapper, modern echapper, and escaper, low Lat. escapium, from ex, out of, and cappa, cape, cloak; cf. for the sense development the Gr. iichueoOat, literally to put off one's clothes, hence to sli
escape, and settled at See also:Amsterdam, where he spent the See also:remainder of his See also:life. After Arnauld's See also:death in 1694 Quesnel was generally regarded as the See also:leader of the Jansenist party; and his Reflexions morales sur le Nouveau Testament played almost as large a See also:part in its literature as See also:Jansen's Augustinus itself. As its See also:title betokens, this was a devotional commentary on the Scriptures, wherein Quesnel managed to explain the aims and ideals of the Jansenist party better than any earlier writer had done; and it accordingly became the See also:chief See also:object of Jesuit attack. It appeared in many forms and under varioustitles, the See also:original germ going back so far as 1668; the first See also:complete edition was published in 1692. The See also:bull Unigenitus, in which no fewer than rot sentences from the Reflexions morales were condemned as heretical, was obtained from See also:Clement IX. on the 8th of See also:September 1713. Quesnel died at Amsterdam on the 2nd of See also:December 1719.
