Born in Paris in 1645. First Lawyer in Parliament. He bought a post in the revenue department at Caen. Charged in 1684, on the recommendation of Bossuet to teach history to the grandson of Louis, Prince of Condé , he passed with him the rest of his days as a writer, with a 1900 ECU pension. Moralist and observer, he attached himself among the books of the ancients, the "Characters" of Theophrastus he translated from the Greek. He wanted to exert himself and published in 1688, the "Characters on the morals of this century" following the Greek translation of the author, but it rose well above the model. He died in 1696. He had been received from the French Academy in 1693.
