Note du spécialiste

Filippo di Savoia-Carignano (1659-1693), Abbott of Saint Medard de Soissons and Saint Pierre de Corbie was born the second son of Eugenio Maurizio di Savoia-Carignano, Comte de Soissons. When Filippo was 20 years old, his mother, Olympe Mancini, fled to Belgium after being scandalously implicated in the 'Affairs des Poisons.' She was accused of plotting to poison her husband and the King of France.
