Abstract
This work gives hitherto unpublished information on the life and work of the
French translator Gabriel Chappuys (1546-1612/13). After a section devoted to his
biography – determination of his date of birth, information about his family and
his social background, details of the studies he undertook and the places where
he worked, determining the different posts he held at the court of Henri III, etc.
– we focus on his activities as a translator, in all their various facets: what did
translating mean to him? Why, and for whom did he translate? How did he go
about translating? Does he follow the tradition established by Étienne Dolet, or
does he diverge from it? Can we judge the quality of his translations? This study
aims to answer all of these questions.
