CLEMENT, FRANCOIS (1714-1793) ,
French
  historian, was born at Beze, near
Dijon
 , and was educated at the Jesuit College at
Dijon
 . At the age of seventeen he entered the society of the Benedictines of Saint Maur, and worked with such intense application that at the age of twenty-five he was obliged to take a protracted rest. He now resided in Paris, where he wrote the 11 th and 1 2th vols. of the Histoire litteraire de la
France
 , and edited (with Dom Brial) the Izth and 13th vols. of the Recueil des historiens des Gauls et de la
France
 . The king appointed him on the committee which was engaged in publishing charters, diplomas and other documents connected with
French
  history (see Xavier Charmes, Le Comite des travaux historiques et scientifiques, vol. i., 1886, passim); and the
Academy
  of
Inscriptions
 
chose
  him as a member (1785). Dom Clement also revised the Art de verifier les
dates
 , edited in 1750 by Dom Clemencet. Three volumes with the Indexes appeared from 1783 to 1792. He was engaged in preparing another volume including the period before the
Christian
  era, when he died suddenly of apoplexy, at the age of sixty-nine. The
work
  was afterwards brought down from 1770 to 1827 by Julien de Courcelles and Fortia d'Urban.
