Francis Ernest Charles Gigot (1859–1920) was a French Catholic priest and Sulpician who published many religious books. Born in France in 1859 and educated at the Institut Catholique de Paris, Gigot was a student of the liberal Alfred Loisy. After ordination in 1884, Gigot emigrated to America and taught Scripture at St. John's Seminary, Brighton, Massachusetts (1885–1899), where he was mentor to the Paulist James Martin Gillis, then St. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore (1899–1905), then St. Joseph's Seminary, Dunwoodie (1905–1920), a Catholic theological school under the direction of Sulpicians, but publishing the modernist New York Review (till 1908). Gigot held revisionist views of Scripture and the Sulpician leadership in Paris wanted Father James Francis Driscoll to rein Gigot in. Driscoll and Gigot "chafed against the scholasticism which they refused to see as exhaustive of orthodoxy". Gigot and the others left the Sulpicians to join the Archdiocese of New York.
