Jacques Boileau (March 16, 1635 - August 1, 1716) was a French clergyman who became a canon of the Sainte-Chapelle, and made contributions to church history.[1] He was the brother of Nicolas Boileau-Despréaux and Gilles Boileau.
He was described by Gustave Masson as the "author of many very curious writings on Church discipline".[2]

[edit]Jacques Boileau was born in Paris, France. He was baptized in the Sainte-Chapelle on March 18, 1635.[3]
He studied at Collège d'Harcourt. On May 22, 1662, he became a Doctor of theology[1] at the Sorbonne. He became Dean, Grand Vicar, and Official of the Diocese of Sens. In 1694 he was promoted to the canonry of the Sainte-Chapelle.[4]

He published some of his works anonymously or under several pen names, including Marcellus Ancyranus, Claudius Fonteius and Jacques Barnabé.[4]
