Abstract
Professor at the Collège de Guyenne, Élie Vinet was a scholar with a manifold knowledge: he pioneered archaeological studies, wrote innovative books on antiquities in Bordeaux and its surroundings as well as on sundials and on land surveying; prepared editions or translations of classical and medieval texts, especially Ausonius; and exchanged philological matters with the best scholars in his time, like de Thou, Cujas, and Scaliger. His international experience includes a period in Coimbra, Portugal, with André de Gouveia and other professors, invited by King John III.
