Jean Muret

Jean Muret (c. 1345 – c. 1420) was a French writer and humanist scholar.

Jean Muret was born in Le Mans.[1][2] He established himself at the papal court in Avignon. There, he came into contact with Italian humanists, befriended Nicholas of Clamanges and formed part of a group of early French humanists that also included Jean de Montreuil and Gontier Col.[3] A single work by Muret, De contemptu mortis, has survived.[1]
