 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Etienne-Antoine Boulogne
Boulogne refused to take the oath of the civil constitution of the clergy demanded by the laws and was in consequence stripped of his titles and benefices.
Yet this displeasure did not prevent the assembled bishops from choosing the preacher as secretary of the council and member of the committee on the reply to the imperial message.
He also refused to leave his country in her need.

 Classically Black: Joseph Boulogne
The son of a black slave and her white plantation owner on the Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, he was allowed to take his father’s name and became known from a young age as Chevalier, or knight, of Saint-Georges.
“The father of Alexandre Dumas served under Boulogne in the French Revolution,” Cooper said.
Although Boulogne had opportunities not afforded most black men of his day, he did experience discrimination, Cooper said.

 Joseph Boulogne (Saint-Georges)
His earliest upbringing was in the isles of the Carribean, and while Boulogne was young, his family moved to Saint Domingue (now Haiti); it was there that he likely had his first violin lessons, under the direction of his father`s plantation manager.
Joseph Boulogne, more commonly known as Saint-Georges, was born about 1739, in Basse Terre, Guadeloupe.
Little is known about Boulogne`s mother, who came from Africa, and no known records survive as to her early history.

 Michael Carter on Apt.Org... The Story of Joseph Boulogne
She may have been one of the Boulogne family's household slaves." When Saint-Georges was young, his family relocated to Saint Domingue (now Haiti), and at the age of ten, they -- along with Nanon -- returned to France.
This man who was once so sought after, ended his life with nothing and no one.
Nothing is known of Saint-Georges' mother beyond the fact that she was a beautiful young slave of Senegalese origin who was given the name Nanon.

 filmcritic.com Movie Review: Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne
Cocteau has been quoted as saying that Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne “won its case in the appeals court,” and such was the case: by the ‘60s Bresson was established as a leading French director and reevaluation of his Dames was well underway.
Critics and audiences in 1945 were united about Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne: they hated it.
Moments after vows are exchanged, Hélène reveals to Jean the truth of Agnès's recent past; melodrama at its finest ensues.

 Guillaume Benjamin Amand Duchenne de Boulogne (www.whonamedit.com)
Duchenne had an undistinguished undergraduate career and as he failed to obtain an academic post, and because of his father’s death he returned to Boulogne where he practised medicine for ten years.
Having arrived alone and without funds, he set to work in charity clinics and hospitals, and gained his livelihood from private practice, which presumably became adequate to supply his limited needs.
He graduated in medicine in Paris in 1831 and, probably influenced by Dupuytren, presented his Thèse de médecine, a monograph on burns.

 Wood of Boulogne - Gardens - Visiting - Mairie de Paris
In 1848 the Bois de Boulogne became the property of the state and in 1852 was subsequently sold to the City of Paris which completely redesigned it.
The present Bois de Boulogne is just a tiny part of the former forest of Rouvray which surrounded Lutèce called by this name until the XIVth century, after the oak trees which surrounded it (Querus Robur).
The Bois de Boulogne then became a refuge of outlaws and down-and-outs.

Three kilometres north of Boulogne on the N1 stands the Colonne de la Grande Armée, where, in 1803, Napoléon is said to have changed his mind about invading Britain and turned his troops east towards Austria.
The column was originally topped by a bronze figure of Napoléon symbolically clad in Roman garb - though his head, equally symbolically, was shot off by the British navy during World War II.
It has long been an important harbour and claims to be the largest fishing base in Europe.

If the old village of Boulogne, existed around the 14th century church, in the north-west sector of the town, for that is what it is, Boulogne's importance dates more to the years 'between the wars,' as it is said here.

These works represent a breakthrough for the artist; although his bold, flat brushwork outraged his critics, it inspired his Impressionist colleagues in the next decade.
He finished the still lifes there, but did not complete the marine paintings, including Steamboat Leaving Boulogne, until he returned to Paris.
In the summer of the following year, perhaps seeking relief from the harsh criticism he had received, Manet left Paris for Boulogne-sur-Mer, a city on the north Atlantic coast of France, where he painted marine subjects and still lifes of fish.
