Pierre de Labriolle

Pierre Champagne de Labriolle (18 June 1874 – 28 December 1940) was a French philologist, Latinist and historian.

[1] Labriolle specialised in early Christian literature in Latin and in particular Tertullian.

Among his most notable works are History and Literature of Christianity from Tertullian to Boethius (1920) and La Réaction païenne : étude sur la polémique antichrétienne du Ier au VIe siècle (1934, lit.

'The pagan reaction: study of the anti-Christian polemic of the first to sixth century').

[1] According to the scholar John Granger Cook, writing in 2000, the latter work was "still unsurpassed in its scope and erudition".
