Joseph de Tonquédec, S.J. (December 27, 1868 – November 21, 1962) was a widely known Jesuit Roman Catholic priest and author.
Father Tonquédec was born in Morlaix, France on December 27, 1868. He received his doctorate in philosophy in 1899 and his doctorate in theology in 1905. He was the professor of philosophy at Collège St. Grégoire, Tours, from 1899 to 1901. He was the official exorcist of Paris from 1924 to 1962. Father Gabriele Amorth, in his 1994 memoir An Exorcist Tells His Story, cites Father de Tonquédec, referring to him as a "famous French exorcist."
Father de Tonquédec was an intellectual adversary of the French philosopher Maurice Blondel. His writings on theology, philosophy, and literature have been translated into languages including Italian, Spanish, Latin, and English; see, for example, his "Some Aspects of Satan's Activity in this World."
Tonquédec died on November 21, 1962, in France.
