Biographical note

Jesuit, professor of philosophy at the Collège de Clermont, Jacques Commolet entered the Parisian novitiate around 1565, and served as Superior and Vice-Provincial of the Professed House in Paris. Having called for the assassination of Henri IV, Commolet was denounced by Antoine Arnauld in Plaidoye de M. Antoine Arnauld, advocat en Parlement, pour l'universite de Paris, demanderesse, contre les jesuites defendeurs (1594).
