Died: 21st July 1623, Avignon, France

Nationality: French

Jean de La Ceppède was a French nobleman, judge, and poet from Aix-en-Provence. He was a Christian poet and wrote Alexandrine sonnets in Middle French during the Renaissance in France. He is best known for his Les Théorèmes sur le Sacré Mystère de Nostre Rédemption, a sequence of 515 sonnets, published in two volumes in 1613 and 1622. Taken together, the sonnets are an exegesis on the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, while making many references and comparisons to figures from Classical mythology and taking a heuristic approach.
