요약 : The Bourse francaise was a fund for poor Protestant refugees to Geneva from Roman Catholic France. It was founded in the mid-sixteenth century and run by deacons of the Reformed Church of Geneva until the mid-nineteenth century when it was dissolved. Jean Calvin was instrumental in the formation of the fund and active as a donor and participant. His ideas about the Protestant diaconate and the responsibility of Christians to the poor inspired the formative years of the institution, but the organization was run with the money and effort of a dedicated group of zealous immigrants to Geneva who gave their time and resources to the Bourse francaise without financial compensation. They worked as deacons, auditors, collectors of contributions, and hosts to homeless refugees.
초록/해제  
요약 : The Bourse was charged with helping the poor. Those who were assisted by the fund included the sick, disabled, orphaned, aged, and widowed, but there were also many able-bodied refugees who received help. The deacons encouraged them to move quickly into the work force by providing them with tools, vocational training, and an opportunity to work. They paid apprenticeship fees and supported education by paying school fees and buying Bibles for the poor. In all these endeavors they exercised economy, making loans rather than direct handouts when possible and buying up cloth and hardgoods in quantity.
초록/해제  
요약 : In the late 1550s and early 1560s the Bourse extended its functions beyond the poor by buying Bibles, catechisms, and Psalters, apparently for dissemination in France through Laurent de Normandie and the corps of colporteurs who made their way into Roman Catholic areas with evangelical books. The fund thus became part of the missionary endeavor emanating from Geneva. It gave aid to ministers and their families, to the families of people martyred in France, and to innumerable messengers sent forth by the Company of Pastors of Geneva. It became, in effect, a financial arm of that body, closely tied to the Church and willing to disseminate funds on many projects that were not strictly connected with the poor.
초록/해제  
요약 : As the work of the Bourse francaise expanded beyond Geneva, its financial support also grew to include people living abroad. Money was sent to the Bourse from Reformed churches and from Protestants in Roman Catholic areas, particularly from France. The Bourse became an integral part of the European network of Reformed churches, acting as a depository of money and a facilitator of international financial arrangements. Similar funds were organized in new areas where Reformed congregations organized and deacons were chosen. The mother institution in Geneva thus served as a model wherever Reformed churches were established.
초록/해제  
요약 : The documents that made possible the study of the Bourse francaise during the era of Jean Calvin are account books that are preserved in the Archives of the State of Geneva, Switzerland. The earliest deacon-accountant of the Bourse was Jean Bude, son of the French humanist, Guillaume Bude. The wealthy Bude family and their friends in the community of French immigrants in Geneva provided much of the early leadership of the Bourse francaise, but they did not all leave literary records. The nobles and businessmen who ran the Bourse left their permanent records in the legal and notarial registers of the period rather than on the printed page. Thus their story and that of the Bourse francaise has been left largely uncovered until this present study.
