Montenat, Benoit

Montenat, Benoit a French ecclesiastic, was born about the commencement of the 16th century; he was almoner to duke Charles of Bourbon, but he was so little known that his name cannot be found in the Bibliotheque Frangaise of La Croix du Maine. At the request of Anne of France, daughter of Louis XI, he wrote in 1505 a treatise on the Conformite desprophetes et Sibylles avec les douze articles de lafoi; this work remains unedited, and is preserved among the manuscripts of the Imperial Library, No. 7287.
