The canonization took place in 1665. Besides the works which we have named, there were published posthumously his _Entretiens_, i.e. a selection of the lectures given to the Visitation, reported by the sisters who heard them, some of his sermons, a large number of his letters, various short treatises of devotion. The first edition of his united or so-called "Complete" works was published at Toulouse in 1637. Others followed in 1641, 1647, 1652, 1663, 1669, 1685. The _Lettres_ and _Opuscules_ were republished in 1768. The only modern editions of the complete works which it is worth while to name are those of Blaise (1821), Vires (1856-1858), Migne (1861), and the critical edition published by the Visitation of Annecy, of which the 14th volume appeared in 1905. The biography of St Francis de Sales was written immediately after his death by the celebrated P. de La Riviere and Dom John de St Francois (Goulu), as well as by two other authors of less importance. The saint's nephew and successor, Charles Auguste de Sales, brought out a more extended life, Latin and French, in 1635. The lives of Giarda (1650), Maupas du Tour (1657) and Cotolendi (1687) add little to Charles Auguste. Marsollier's longer life, in two volumes (1700), is quite untrustworthy; still more so that by Loyau d'Amboise (1833), which is rather a romance than a biography. The lives by Hamon (1856) and Perennes (1860), without adding much to preceding biographies, are serious and edifying. A complete life, founded on the lately discovered process of 1626 and the new letters, was being prepared by the author of the present article at the time of his death. With the Lives must be mentioned the _Esprit du B.F. de Sales_ by Camus, bishop of Belley, who, amid innumerable errors, gives various interesting traits and sayings of his saintly friend. Among the very numerous modern studies may be named an essay by Leigh Hunt entitled "The Gentleman Saint" (_The Seer_, pt. ii. No. 41); a remarkable _causerie_ by Sainte-Beuve (_Lundis_, 3rd Jan. 1853); _Le Reveil du sentiment religieux en France au XVII^e siecle_, by Strowski (Paris, 1898); _Four Essays on S. F. de S._ and _Three Essays on S. F. de S. as Preacher_, by Canon H.B. Mackey. (H. B. M.) FOOTNOTES:
