1777276941777 Simon, Parisiis, 1777 - in 4 pleine basane racinée époque,dos orné,tranches rouges (XXIV), 438, II, 120 p. ; 27 cm.- les XXIV premieres pages n'ont pas été reliées,titre manquant ,texte frais, sinon bon état - Christophe de Beaumont,à l'opposition aux jansénistes et au milieu parlementaire,s'ajoute son opposition aux philosophes des Lumières. Il publie une lettre pastorale en forme de mandement dans laquelle il condamne l'Émile de Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Ce dernier répond en 1763 par une lettre à Christophe de Beaumont, où il soutient que la liberté de discussion dans les questions religieuses est plus conforme à la religion que la tentative d'imposer une croyance par la force. Les mandements, lettres et instructions pastorales de Christophe de Beaumont sont publiés en deux volumes en 1780, l'année qui précède sa mort.
