COSSART, GABRIEL. - Jesuit, sacred orator, poet and canonist. Born at Pontoise on 22 Nov. 1615, died on 18 Sept. 1674, in the college of Clermont in Paris, where he had been professor of rhetoric.
His oratorical and poetic compositions were republished in Paris in 1675. C. is particularly noted for having lent a hand in completing the collection: Sacrosanta Concilia, in which Fr. Fil. Labbe had published vols. I-VII and XII-XV. Fr. C. undertook to complete vols. IX-X, which Labbe, overtaken by death (1667), had left incomplete, and to compile vol. XI (Paris 1671-72). Of his works one should also mention: Parthenii patriarchae Constantinopolitani decretum synodale super calvinianis dogmatibus quae in epistola Cyrilli nomine ante annos aliquot edita, falso Graecorum et Orientalium consensu recepta ferebantur (Paris 1643).
