    Théodore-Agrippa d'Aubigné (8 February 1552 – 29 April 1630) was a French poet, soldier, propagandist and chronicler. His epic poem Les Tragiques (1616) is widely regarded as his masterpiece. In a book about his Catholic contemporary Jean de La Ceppède, English poet Keith Bosley has called d'Aubigné, "the epic poet of the Protestant cause," during the French Wars of Religion. Bosley added, however, that after d'Aubigné's death, he, "was forgotten until the Romantics rediscovered him."

While he did not receive his sister's title until her death the combination of Serenity, being a member of the most prestigious chivalric order in France at that time, the Order of the Holy Spirit, as well as having his father's title restored to him as well as made a peer, which was not automatic in France for nobles as in England, put him in a most wonderful position at court.
