a| Pierre de Bourdeille was a French historian, soldier and biographer.

a| De Bourdeille can hardly be regarded as a historian proper, and his Memoirs cannot be accepted as a very trustworthy source of information. But he writes in a quaint conversational way, pouring forth his thoughts, observations or facts without order or system, and with the greatest frankness.His works give a picture of the general court-life of the time, with its unblushing and undisguised profligacy. There is not an homme illustre or a dame galante in all his gallery of portraits who has not engaged in sexual immorality; and yet the whole is narrated with the most complete unconsciousness that there is anything objectionable in their conduct.[Chisholm, Hugh, ed. (1911). "Pierre de Bourdeille, Seigneur and Abbé de Brantôme". Encyclopædia Britannica. 4 (11th ed.). Cambridge University Press.]
