Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BER-BLA
BEUDANT, FRANCOIS SULPICE (17871850) , French mineralogist and geologist, was born at Paris on the 5th of September 1787. He was educated at the Ecole Polytechnique and Ecole Normale, and in 1811 was appointed professor of
mathematics
  at the lycee of Avignon. Thence he was called, in 1813, to the lycee of
Marseilles
  to fill the post of professor of physics. In the following year the royal mineralogical cabinet was committed to his charge to be conveyed into England, and from that time his attention was directed principally towards
geology
  and cognate sciences. In 1817 he published a
paper
  on the phenomena of crystallization, treating especially of the variety of forms assumed by the same
mineral
  substance. In 1818 he undertook, at the expense of the French government, a
geological
  journey through
Hungary
 , and the results of his researches, Voyage mineralogique et geologique en Hongrie, 3 vols. 4t0, with
atlas
 , published in 1822, established for him a European reputation. In 182o he was appointed to the professorship of
mineralogy
  in the Paris faculty of sciences, and afterwards became inspector-general of the university. He subsequently published
treatises
  on physics and on
mineralogy
  and
geology
 , and died on the loth of December 185o.
