Vital d'Audiguier (Najac, 1565 - Paris, 1624), was a French poet and writer. He was murdered as the result of a brawl over a gambling debt.
d'Audiguier's best known work was a swashbuckling chivalrous novel published anonymously in 1615, entitled Histoire tragi-comique de notre temps, but in subsequent editions titled Histoire des Amours de Lysandre et de Caliste.[1]
- ^ Frederick Wright Vogler (1964), Vital d'Audiguier and the early seventeenth-century French novel: "In this modern adventure novel which still clings to the trappings of the novel of chivalry, the hero Lysandre is swiftly ... only holds his own in salon conversation but also composes poetry and music, accompanying himself skillfully on the lute."
