Thomas Sébillet Life story
Thomas Sébillet was a French jurist, an essayist and a neo-Platonist grammarian. He is now remembered for his Art Poétique from 1548, on French verse. He was strongly contradicted later by Joachim du Bellay, whose art poétique became normative. This "decapitation of richesse" led to a centralisation of language, too.
