Notes

Commentaire

"Né à Hyères, Jean-Baptiste Massillon reçoit sa formation chez les Oratoriens et entre dans leur congrégation en 1681. Ordonné prêtre en 1691, il est nommé supérieur du séminaire de Saint-Magloire à Paris. Sa réputation d’orateur sacré l’amène à prêcher à Versailles en 1699, 1701 et 1704. Son oraison funèbre la plus célèbre reste celle deLouis XIV : « Dieu seul est grand, mes Frères… », prononcée le 17 décembre 1715 à la Sainte-Chapelle lors du service funèbre organisé par la Chambre des comptes. Nommé évêque de Clermont en 1717, il prêche le petit carême de 1718 devant le jeune Louis XV. La date de 1719, qui figure sur son portrait, correspond à celle de son électionà l’Académie française."
