SAUVÉ, CHARLES. - Ascetical writer, b. 18 Oct. 1848 at Fontaine-Milon (diocese of Angers), d. at Saumur on 11 March 1925. In 1872 he was ordained a priest and entered the Sulpicians.
At the major seminary of Dijon he taught (from 1875) successively philosophy, dogmatic theology and moral theology. Driven out by Combes's decrees (1904), he lived in Alsace, Spain, and finally, having returned to France, at Lourdes and at Saumur near the sanctuary of N. D. des Ardilliers, already dear to J. J. Olier. He edified everyone by his virtues and his resignation in his long illnesses.
He published (in Paris) many volumes, theologically sound, but somewhat prolix in form, on the intimate ascetical meaning of Catholic dogmas and devotions: Dieu intime: la Sainte Trinité; Jésus intime; L'ange et l'homme intimes; Etats intimes; Le Sacré-Coeur intime; Le culte du Sacré-Coeur; Les Litanies du Sacré-Coeur; Marie intime; St Joseph intime; L'évangile intime: le culte des mystères et des paroles de Jésus; L'Eucharistie intime; Le prêtre intime; Lourdes intime; Rome intime; Le religieux intime. In a brief laudatory letter (1908), Pius X noted in S.'s work "copiam pondusque rerum, integritatem sententiarum, calidum caritate quodam modo orationis genus".
