Jean de La Ceppède (c. 1550 – 1623) was a French nobleman, judge, and poet from Aix-en-Provence. He was a Christian poet[1] and wrote Alexandrine sonnets in Middle French.[2] He is best known for his Les Théorèmes sur le Sacré Mystère de Nostre Rédemption, a sequence of 515 sonnets, published in two volumes in 1613 and 1622.[1] Taken together, the sonnets are an exegesis on the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ[1] and take a heuristic approach.[1]
