His arrest and detention at Vincennes from 1638 to the death of Richelieu, whom he survived but a few months, did not permit him to carry out this modest plan. He had to restrict himself to personal efforts on several occasions,1 but especially to excite, by his example and exhortations, devotion as disinterested as his own, but better guided, and therefore more etfica cions.

Excerpt from Port-Royal Education: Saint-Cyran; Arnauld; Lancelot; Nicole; De Saci Guyot; Coustel; Fontaine; Jacqueline Pascal
The Petites Écoles of Port-Royal had but a short and troubled existence. Their foundation goes hack to the year 1637, but their real organization only dates from 1646. Several times broken up in consequence of theological disputes excited by Arnauld, or because of the war of the Fronde, they were finally closed by the king's command in March, 1661.
They hold, nevertheless, an honourable place in the history of pedagogy. If they lasted but a short time they shed a brilliant light, and exercised, as much by the character and talents of the masters as by the reform in methods of teaching and the books which they produced, a considerable influence, which on certain points is still active.
The first idea of their foundation belongs to the illustrious Duvergier de Hauranne, abbe of Saint-Cyran.
