Picard, Jean (2)

a French humanist, was born in Beauvais in the 16th century. He was regular canon of St. Victor, in Paris. He died in 1617. We owe to him the edition of the chronicle of Guillaume de Neubourg (De -ebus A Inglicis [Paris, 1610, 8vo], lib. 5), accompanied by the life of the author and historical notes, and that of the OEuvres de St. Bernard (Paris, 1615. fol.).
