Maurice Goguel

Henry Maurice Goguel (20 March 1880 – 31 March 1955) was Dean of the Protestant Faculty of Theology in Paris, director of studies at the École pratique des hautes études, and professor at the Sorbonne.[1]

He published a substantial body of work of historical research on early Christianity.[2] His Jesus the Nazarene: Myth or History? was an important rebuttal of the Christ myth theory.[3]

He had three children, Elisabeth Labrousse, a philosopher, historian, and academic, Jean Goguel a geologist and geophysicist, and François Goguel.
