Charles-Annibal, one of the most celebrated jurists of his time, was born in 1580, at Aix in Provence. At an early age he made great progress in the ancient languages and in the civil and the canon law; and in 1609 obtained a professorship in the university of his native town. He is best known by his translation of the Basilica, which may be said to have formed the code of the Eastern empire till its destruction. This work was published at Paris in 1647, in 7 vols. fol., and obtained for its author a considerable pension from the Chancellor Seguier, to whom it was dedicated. Fabrot likewise rendered great service to the science of jurisprudence by his edition of Cujas, which comprised several treatises of that great jurist previously unpublished. Among Fabrot's other works, may be mentioned his *Epistola de Mutuo cum responsione Cl. Salmasii ad Menagium*, Leyden, 1645, in 8vo; *Les Antiquités de la Ville de Marseille*, translated from the Latin of J. Raymond de Solier, Marseilles, 1615, and Lyons, 1632, in 8vo; *Exercitationes duce de tempore partes humani et de numero puerperii*, Aix, 1629, in 4to; *Praelectio in titulum Decretalium "De vita et honestate Clericorum,"* Paris, 1651, in 4to; *Notae ad titulum Codicis Theodosiani "De paganis sacrificiis et templis,"* Paris, 1648, in 4to.
