Charles Perrault
**Charles Perrault** (1628–1703) est une figure majeure de la littérature française du **XVIIe siècle**. Bras droit de Colbert, il joue un rôle clé dans la politique artistique de la cour de Louis XIV. Mais c’est surtout pour ses *Contes de ma mère l’Oye* (1697) qu’il est célèbre, fixant par écrit des récits populaires comme *Cendrillon* ou *Le Petit Chaperon rouge*. Membre de l’Académie française, il marque aussi l’histoire littéraire en défendant les Modernes face aux Anciens. Son œuvre, à la fois poétique et morale, continue d’inspirer le monde entier.
