  • Noël Brûlart (or Brulart) de Sillery (1577–1640) was a French diplomat who, upon renouncing the world and taking holy orders, provided from his fortune for the establishment of a mission in New France. The youngest child of Lord Pierre Brûlart de Berni and Dame Marie Cauchon de Sillery, Noel was named for the day of his birth, December 25, 1577. He joined the military-religious order of the Knights of Malta at a young age and distinguished himself by his service on that island. In 1607, while on leave, he was presented at court in Paris. In 1614 he was made Ambassador to the Spanish court and in 1622, to Rome. It was in Rome that he first conceived of the idea of renouncing worldly goods and joining the priesthood. He returned to Paris in 1624, where he lived a life of luxury that, for all the honours and riches he enjoyed, failed to satisfy him. In 1626, moved by the words of St. Vincent de Paul, he vowed to reform his life, dedicating his considerable energy, talents and fortune to the task of helping others. He began to give his money in support of a wide variety of charitable causes and foundations. In 1632, he began to prepare in earnest for holy orders and divested himself of his palatial property in Paris. He successfully petitioned the Pope for the special dispensation that was required for a Knight of Malta to leave the order and become a priest. In 1632, he gave twelve thousand pounds to fund the foundation of a mission in New France (Canada), which would eventually be named Sillery, in remembrance of his generosity. He became a priest in 1634. The mission, at that time called St. Joseph Mission, was built in 1638. The former city of Sillery, Québec, was named for him. Located just west of old Quebec City, Sillery was among the many outlying municipalities amalgamated into an expanded Quebec City on January 1, 2002. Its former territory now forms part of the borough of Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge. The name Sillery is still used locally for the picturesque neighbourhood. A monument to Noël Brulart de Sillery, consisting of a pedestal and bust, stands on Avenue Chanoine-Morel next to the Community Centre named after him. Erected in 1956, the monument was created by artist René Thibault, based on a concept by architect Édouard Fiset. (en)

  • Noël Brûlart (ou Br u lart ) de Sillery (1577–1640) foi um diplomata francês que, ao renunciar ao mundo e receber ordens sagradas, providenciou com sua fortuna o estabelecimento de uma missão na Nova França. Filho mais novo de Lord Pierre Brûlart de Berni e Dame Marie Cauchon de Sillery, Noel foi batizado em homenagem ao dia de seu nascimento, 25 de dezembro de 1577. Juntou-se à ordem religioso-militar dos Cavaleiros de Malta desde muito jovem e distinguiu-se pelo serviço prestado naquela ilha. Em 1607, durante a licença, foi apresentado ao tribunal em Paris. Em 1614 foi nomeado embaixador na corte espanhola e em 1622 em Roma. Foi em Roma que ele teve pela primeira vez a ideia de renunciar aos bens mundanos e ingressar no sacerdócio. Ele retornou a Paris em 1624, onde viveu uma vida de luxo que, por todas as honras e riquezas que desfrutou, não o satisfez. Em 1626, movido pelas palavras de São Vicente de Paulo, ele prometeu reformar sua vida, dedicando sua considerável energia, talento e fortuna à tarefa de ajudar os outros. Ele começou a doar seu dinheiro em apoio a uma ampla variedade de fundações e causas de caridade. Em 1632, ele começou a se preparar seriamente para as ordens sagradas e se desfez de sua propriedade palaciana em Paris. Ele solicitou com sucesso ao Papa a dispensa especial necessária para que um Cavaleiro de Malta deixasse a ordem e se tornasse padre. Em 1632, deu doze mil libras para financiar a fundação de uma missão na Nova França (Canadá), que viria a se chamar Sillery, em memória de sua generosidade. Ele se tornou sacerdote em 1634. A missão, na época chamada Missão São José, foi construída em 1638. A antiga cidade de Sillery, Québec, foi batizada em sua homenagem. Localizada a oeste da velha cidade de Quebec, Sillery estava entre os muitos municípios remotos amalgamados em uma cidade expandida de Quebec em 1 ° de janeiro de 2002. Seu antigo território agora faz parte do bairro de Sainte-Foy – Sillery – Cap-Rouge. O nome Sillery ainda é usado localmente para o pitoresco bairro. Um monumento a Noël Brulart de Sillery, consistindo de um pedestal e busto, fica na Avenida Chanoine-Morel próximo ao Centro Comunitário em sua homenagem. Erguido em 1956, o monumento foi criado pelo artista René Thibault, a partir de um conceito do arquiteto Édouard Fiset. (pt)
