[Le calendrier grégorien] représente une amélioration de détail (...) d'un remarquable calendrier antérieur, le calendrier julien. C'est pourquoi l'on dit parfois que notre calendrier actuel est julien, en considérant la réforme de 1582 comme secondaire; dans ce cas, il est d'usage de distinguer le calendrier julien ancien style (antérieur à 1582) et le calendrier julien nouveau style (ou grégorien). 2, record 1, French, - calendrier%20julien
