Scipion Dupleix

Scipion Dupleix, lord of Clarens (Condom, 1569 – Condom, 1661), was a French historian.

Dupleix came to Paris in 1605, in Queen Margaret of Valois' retinue, who appointed him as her hotel's ''maitre de requêtes''.

In his position as tutor of Antoine de Bourbon, the legitimated son of Henri IV, he wrote ''la Curiosité naturelle rédigée en questions selon l'ordre alphabétique'', ''l'Éthique ou philosophie morale'', and ''les Causes de la veille et du sommeil, des songes & de la vie & de la mort'' for his pupil.

Louis XIII made him a historiographer of France and a councilor of state in 1619. Provided by Wikipedia
