Jean Henri Merle d'Aubigné (1794-1872) was born in Geneva of French Protestant refugees and studied in Geneva, Leipzig, and Berlin. His brilliant career included a first pastorate in a French congregation in Hamburg, a stint as court preacher in Brussels, and a professorship in the theological school of the Evangelical Society of Geneva. Although he taught a variety of subjects, his primary interest and first love was church history, especially that of the Protestant Reformation. The first volume of his magnum opus appeared in 1835, the last in 1853.
