About this person

There is Bishop Jean Michel of Angers, a "Maistre Jehan Michel" who was first physician of King Charles VIII, and the physician to the dauphin, son of Charles VIII. The bishop is considered the least likely candidate for being the poet, having died too early, while the physician to the dauphin is the most likely, due to the latter also being associated with Angers, and the work being produced for the first time in its new shape at Angers in 1486.
