MONTFLEURY (d. 1667)

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 781 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOL-MOS
MONTFLEURY (d. 1667) , French actor, whose real name was Zacharie Jacob, was born in Anjou during the last years of the 16th
century
 . He was enrolled as one of the pages to the duc de Guise, but he ran away to join some strolling players,
assuming the name of
Montfleury
 . About 1635 he was a valued member of the company at the Hotel de Bourgogne, and he was in the
original
  cast of the Cid (1636) and of
Horace
  (164o).
Richelieu
  thought highly of him, and when in 1638
Montfleury
  married the actress Jeanne de la Chalpe (d. 1683), the
cardinal
  desired the ceremony to take place at his own country
house
  at Rueil. Montfleury died in Paris from the rupture of a blood-
vessel
 , while playing the
part
  of Orestes in Andromaque, in December 1667. He was the author of a tragedy, La Mort d'Asdrobal, performed in 1647.
