   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Montfaucon, Bernard de (1655–1741)

French scholar. His edition of Athanasius 1698 established his reputation as a profound scholar. He published an account of his journey to Italy and three-year researches there, consulting manuscripts in Italian libraries, in his Diarium italicum 1702. His greatest and best-known work is L'Antiquité expliquée et représentée en figures 1719, to which a five-volume supplement was added 1724.

He was born in Aude, at the château of Soulage. He was at first a soldier, and served in Germany under Marshal Turenne, but in 1675 he entered the Benedictine congregation of St Maur.
