Life & Legacy
Nicolas Caussin (1583 – July 2, 1651) was a French Jesuit, orator; and for a time, confessor to King Louis XIII of France. His treatise, The Holy Court, a guide for courtiers in living a Christian life, was published in 1624. Caussin was removed from his position as royal confessor after only nine months and exiled to Quimper when his spiritual counsel seemed to clash with Cardinal Richelieu's political policies.
