- Léon-Clément Gérard (18 March 1810 – 1 November 1876) was a churchman in the Val d'Aoste who became a cathedral canon in nearby Aosta. Within the church he came to prominence as a controversialist, notably on account of his long-standing record of theological and very public feuding with Félix Orsières to whose polemical Liberal Catholicism Gérard, alongside his colleagues within the Aosta cathedral establishment, he was strongly opposed. His church career culminated in his appointment as diocesan archpriest. It is, however, on account of his activities as a prolific writer, in particular of religious and regional publications, that he came to wider prominence. In 1859/1860 Aosta became part of Italy. Despite an energetic campaign of population shifting and language suppression under Mussolini, the French language is still very widely spoken in the Val d'Aoste. In the nineteenth century variations of French dominated overwhelmingly. In his published output Gérard used French. (en)
