René Aubert de Vertot (25 November 1655 in Bennetot, Normandy – 15 June 1735 in Paris) was a French clergyman and historian.
Life
Vertot was for some time a pupil of the Jesuit Fathers seminary at Rouen, which he left at the end of two years to enter the Capuchin Order. His health was greatly impaired by his austerities there, and his family, alarmed, obtained permission for him to join the Premonstratensian Canons. Afterwards he was appointed pastor to several small parishes in Normandy.
In 1703 Vertot was made a member of the Académie des inscriptions.
