John of St. Samson (1571–1636), also known as Jean du Moulin or Jean de Saint-Samson, was a French Carmelite friar and mystic of the Catholic Church. He is known as the soul of the Touraine Reform of the Carmelite Order, which stressed prayer, silence and solitude. John was blind from the age of three after contracting smallpox and receiving poor medical treatment for the disease. He insisted very strongly on the mystical devotion of the Carmelites. He has been referred to as the "French John of the Cross" by students of Christian mysticism.

  • Jean du Moulin plus connu sous le nom de Jean de Saint-Samson (1571-1636) est un moine de l'ordre des Grands carmes à Dol-de-Bretagne puis à Rennes. Il participe et soutient la réforme du carmel de Rennes dite aussi Réforme de Touraine. Une partie de ses reliques a été remise aux Grands carmes, lors de leur réinstallation à Nantes en 1990. Si Jean de Saint-Samson n'a jamais fait l'objet d'un procès en béatification, son titre de vénérable, attribué par son premier biographe (Albert le Grand), est resté dans les usages. (fr)
