Biography

Próspero París, SJ (September 1, 1846—May 13, 1931) was a French prelate of the Roman Catholic Church, who served as Apostolic Vicar of Nanking from 1900 until his death.

Born in Nantes, he was ordained as a Jesuit priest on September 18, 1880, at age 34.

On April 6, 1900, París was appointed Apostolic Vicar of Kiangnan and Titular bishop of Silandus by Pope Leo XIII. He received his episcopal consecration on the following November 11 from Bishop Paul-Marie Reynaud, CM, with Bishops Jules-Auguste Coqset, CM, and Joseph-Claude Excoffier, MEP, serving as co-consecrators.

The vicarate was renamed twice during París's tenure, as Kiangsu (August 8, 1921) and later Nanking (May 1, 1922). París died at age 84.
