La Borde, Vivien: Principes sur l'essence, la distinction, et les limites des deux puissances, spirituelle, et temporelle. [n.pl., n.pr.] 1753.
Philosophical and political treatise by the Jansenist priest Vivien La Borde (1680-1748). La Borde sets out to demonstrate two contentious views, that the church has no coercive authority, and that princes and magistrates have the right to examine the conduct of churchmen in the functions of their ministry.
