HU'ET, [dimin. of Hugh."] A furname. 
KU'ET (Peter-Daniel), a learned French prelate, bom 
at Caen in 1630. His father was a convert from Calvin- 
ilin, and was zealous in the new religion he had adopted. 
He died while this foil was an infant, and his wife did 
not long furvive. At an early age he was placed in the 
Jefuits’ college at Caen, wdiere his afiiduity in ltudy and 
amiable difpofition gained him the affection of his mafters. 
In 1652, he accompanied Bochart in a journey to Swe^ 
den, whither that learned man had been invited by queen 
Chriftina, whole ambition it was to aliemble at her court; 
all the perfons moft diftinguiilied for their erudition 
throughout Europe. On revifiting liis native city, he 
found that a literary academy had been inftituted there 
during his abfence, of which he Was elected a member. 
In 1661, he publiftied his firft work De Interprctatione, the 
purpofe of which was to confine within due limits the li¬ 
cence of tranllators, efpecially thofe of the Scriptures. It 
was elegantly written, and . exhibited much critical and 
philological knowledge. His regard to the purfuits of 
natural philofophy was difplayed in 1662 by the inltitu- 
tion of an academy of phyfics at Caen, the members of 
which affembled weekly at his houfe, where they read me¬ 
moirs, and conducted experimental enquiries. Through 
the means of Colbert, the royal munificence was extended 
to this ufeful inftitutioir, and Huet himfelf was put upon 
the lilt of learned men upon whom penlions were confer¬ 
red. An edition of Origen’s Commentaries on the Scrip¬ 
tures, upon which he had been many years employed, ap¬ 
peared at Rouen in 1667.. And at the requeft of Segrais 
he drew up a treatife On the Origin of Romances, in 
which he difplayed a great deal of reading on that topic. 
This piece was prefixed to the Zayde of Mad. la Fayette. 
In 1670, when Boffuet was made preceptor to the dau¬ 
phin, Huet was called to the office of fub-preceptor. One 
of his employments in this poll was to fuperintend that 
edition of the Latin claflics called the Delphin, which was 
primarily the plan of the duke de-Montaufier; and Huet 
was the advifer of the formation of thofe verbal indexes 
which
