	Bernard de Montfaucon
		Montfaucon, moreover, corresponded with scholars all over Europe, and, in spite of the heavy tasks he took upon himself, he succeeded, thanks to his abstemious and regular life, in working almost to his last day.
		Lastly, Montfaucon intuitively saw what benefit might accrue to history from the study of figured monuments, and, if he was not the creator of archaeology, he was at least the first to show what advantages might be derived from it.
		In it Montfaucon studies the history, as it is shown in the monuments, of each successive reign down to that of Henry IV.

	Argosarts.org - distribution
		When played on a video recorder that transmits the visual signal into a TV monitor, the video film disguises itself as a TV broadcast –by looking at the monitor alone, the viewer cannot know whether he or she is watching a simultaneously broadcasted TV programme or a pre-recorded tape.
		A major structural difference to a TV broadcast and also an essentially important element for the approach of these art videos is their performance character – again the linguistic and semantic relation to the theatrical – as well as the fact that they can be repeated endlessly, allowing for critical, reflective viewing.
		However in sharp contrast to the medium they deconstruct, the Montfaucon Research Center wants their messages to be semantically intact and therefore they pursue two basic strategies: the focus on the spoken word only or the multiplication of the text via song, language and writing.

		It was this drawing which, in the hands of M. Lancelot and Father Montfaucon, led to the discovery of the original work; but the delineation only covered a small portion ot the design.
		Father Montfaucon published an engraving of the tapestry, so far as it was then known from M. Foucault's drawing, in his Monumens de la Monarchie Françoise, Part I., 1729.
		The first representation of the remainder was made by Antoine Benoit upon copper, by the instruction of Father Montfaucon; who gave him orders to reduce it to a given size, but to alter nothing.

	Newman Reader - Treatises of St. Athanasius - Discourse 4
		Nay, such might seem to have been the opinion of Photius when he speaks of Athanasius's "five books against Arius and his doctrines." [Note 1] Montfaucon even goes so far as to consider external evidence unnecessary, and appeals to the structure of the Orations, as even determining their number.
		If Montfaucon then be correct in his remark, either the Oration called the Fourth was written many years prior to those which it is considered to follow, or it is made up of portions belonging to separate dates.
		These are not all the coincidences which might be drawn out between Athanasius's Fourth Oration on the one hand, and the writers against Marcellus and Photinus on the other; and they surely make it clear that against the Photinians, and not against the Arians, that work is directed.

	The Hunchback Of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo 71
		During the night which followed the execution of la Esmeralda, the night men had detached her body from the gibbet, and had carried it, according to custom, to the cellar of Montfaucon.
		At the end of the fifteenth century, the formidable gibbet which dated from 1328, was already very much dilapidated; the beams were wormeaten, the chains rusted, the pillars green with mould; the layers of hewn stone were all cracked at their joints, and grass was growing on that platform which no feet touched.
		A huge cellar had been constructed there, closed by an old iron grating, which was out of order, into which were cast not only the human remains, which were taken from the chains of Montfaucon, but also the bodies of all the unfortunates executed on the other permanent gibbets of Paris.

	St. Jerome, Commentary on Daniel (1958). Migne Footnotes. pp. 159-189.
		Now this statement, Montfaucon alleges, is very difficult of credence if it is to be understood of the use of the book in public assemblies of the Church, for how could two editions of the same prophet be read indiscriminately in all the churches?
		MS reads pro andriante [the last letter being epsilon, an impossible case-ending for the Greek word]; and if this reading be correct, says Montfaucon, it is to be understood that Jerome gave a Latin ending to the Greek word, in order that it might be conformed to the preposition pro.
		The better reading is apparently that of the Palatine MSS and (according to Montfaucon) the Sangermane MSS, which spell the word in Roman letters, and with an "r": Sabir.
