Description:
Eustache Deschamps (1346-1406) was a medieval French poet. Born at Vertus, in Champagne, he received lessons in versification from Guillaume de Machaut and later studied law at Orleans University. He then traveled through Europe as a diplomatic messenger for Charles V. His estate was pillaged by the English, in consequence of which he continuously abuses them in his many poems. Deschamps wrote as many as 1,175 ballades, and he is sometimes credited with inventing the form. Wikipedia
