description: "Sir Andrew Michael Ramsay, commonly called the Chevalier Ramsay, was a Scottish-born writer who lived most of his adult life in France. He was a baronet in the Jacobite peerage. After visiting the Catholic archbishop and theologian François Fénelon in Cambrai (France) in 1710, he converted to Roman Catholicism even though he was attracted to quietism. He remained until 1724 in France where he wrote politico-theological treatises. He was in 1724 in Rome in the role of tutor to James Francis Edward Stuart's two sons. He later returned to France. A speech he gave in 1736 in France is considered one of the founding texts of freemasonry in general, and of the French Masonic tradition in particular."
