Preaching the Place of Huguenots in France: The Sermons of Jean Daillé and Huguenot Identity under the Edict of Nantes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This paper examines the career and homiletics of Huguenot pastor Jean Daillé (1594–1670) and what his example reveals about how Huguenots understood their place in France under the Edict of Nantes. Daillé’s career began at Saumur, but he soon became one of the pastors at Charenton, ministering to Paris’ Reformed population. Over the course of a career that lasted for more than four decades, Daillé became a leading figure among his co-religionists, and left behind a sizable list of published works, including sermons. Based primarily on a reading of those printed sermons, this paper highlights the important role that preached and printed sermons played in negotiating the religious particularism and political loyalty to the crown that, together, informed Huguenot confessional identity during Daillé’s lifetime. Sermons were integral to this process by offering a vocabulary of images and arguments in support of the Huguenot position, especially since their message was directed both to the Huguenot faithful and to the crown.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
