Claude Chappuys

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Claude Chappuys[1] (c. 1500 – 17 November 1575) was a 16th-century French poet.

Biography

Born in Amboise, Chappuys was a valet and librarian for François I, then secretary to cardinal du Bellay. He entered the priesthood and was appointed high dean of the Chapter of Rouen by the King. However, the Chapter refused to accept this nomination and he had to accept a post of great cantor of the Rouen Cathedral, which was later reduced to that of canon.

In addition to his court poems, he composed blasons,[2][3] epigrams, epistles, and songs. He was linked to Mellin de Saint-Gelais and Marot, who considered him to be one of the good poets of his time; however, his name remained long forgotten.

He died in Rouen 17 November 1575.
