His writings remain as an encouragement and source of spiritual growth for many Christians today. \u003cbr\u003e Fénelon, descended from a long line of nobility, started his higher studies in 1672 at Saint Sulpice seminary in Paris. He was ordained a priest in 1676 and appointed director of Nouvelles Catholiques (\"New Catholics\"), a college for women who taught converts from French Protestantism. Fénelon, while never supportive of Protestantism, was nonetheless critical of harsh treatment toward Huguenots (French Protestants) and the many forced conversions that occurred under King Louis XIV. Fénelon instead held open meetings with Protestants to share the Catholic doctrine in a nonthreatening environment. \u003cbr\u003e Fénelon's first important work, \u003ci\u003e Traité de l'éducation des filles \u003c\/i\u003e(\u003ci\u003eTreatise on the Education of Girls\u003c\/i\u003e), was conservative overall but also suggested noncoercive concepts for educating females that were very innovative for his day. His second and best-known work, \u003ci\u003eLes Aventures de Télémaque (The Adventures of Telemachus), \u003c\/i\u003eoutlined Fénelon's political beliefs through the account of Telemachus's search for Ulysses. It was written during Fénelon's time as tutor to Louis, Duke de Bourgogne, the grandson and heir to Louis XIV. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whitaker House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42697931915501,"sku":"9780883680100","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_29bf17ee-24c5-4591-90f5-d14cfdebf06c.jpg?v=1649891407","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/let-go-to-get-peace-and-real-joy-9780883680100","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
