When speaking about Léon Dehon as an educator, the first thoughts go to him as the initiator of Collège Saint Jean in Saint Quentin in 1877. Although his first idea as a founder was not to found schools, he had a deep attachment to its students and the alumni. It is in his annual commencement addresses and in his annual presentations for the alumni association from 1883 on that we derive his understanding of education. If we are to typify Léon Dehon as an educator it would be mainly as a social-political educator. Léon Dehon was passionate to turn France around toward more Christian ideals in the social and economic sphere in the laïcist political scene in the latter part of the 19th century. The presentation gives an insight into Léon Dehon’s social concerns of this period also as an indispensible part of his charism for the Congregation he started at the same time as the Collège Saint Jean.
