Théophile (1590–1626)| French writer. He wrote the pastoral tragedy Pyramé et Thisbé, produced 1617, and some sincere and spontaneous love poetry. |
| The contribution of a few licentious poems to the occasional publication Le Parnasse satyrique resulted in him being condemned to be burnt at the stake 1623, but the sentence was afterwards reduced to banishment for life from Paris, which was not strictly enforced. |
