A French historian and curator of the manuscript department at the Bibliothèque Nationale, Benjamin Guérard (1797–1854) made a considerable contribution to the study of medieval French cathedrals and monasteries. Having studied at Dijon, Guérard became a banker in Paris, before studying at the École royales des chartes where he trained as an archivist. He was a founding member of the Société de l'histoire de France, and this publication on the Abbey of Saint-Père at Chartres was part of the society's first series of documents inédits. Guérard was elected to the Academie des inscriptions et belles-lettres, and became the director of the École des chartes in 1848. This collection of the medieval charters of the abbey was published in Paris in 1840.
