Gatien de Courtilz de Sandras, (ou de Courtie), de Courtilz, sieur de Sandras (1644, Montargis - 8 mai 1712, Paris). Engagé dans la compagnie des Mousquetaires, il quitte l'armée au bout de 18 ans pour devenir polygraphe et vivre de sa plume. Auteur fécond et imprudent, il est emprisonné à la Bastille du 23 avril 1693 au 2 mars 1699. Biographie Capitaine au régiment de Champagne, il quitte le service en 1688, se rend en Hollande pour y faire imprimer des ouvrages, qui pour la plupart sont des romans historiques ou des pamphlets. Il rentre en France en 1702, est enfermé à la Bastille pour des publications scandaleuses et y reste 9 ans[réf. nécessaire]. Il fut inhumé dans le cimetière Saint-André-des-Arts à Paris. Écriture De la vie de d'Artagnan qu'il a pu connaître assez bien, car il fut enfermé à la Bastille alors que Besmaux, ex-compagnon de d'Artagnan, en était Gouverneur, Courtilz a tiré un récit où le vrai se mêle au faux: il s'agit des Mémoires de M. d'Artagnan, publiées en 1700 (soit 27 ans après la mort du héros gascon), dont s'est à son tour inspiré Alexandre Dumas pour Les Trois Mousquetaires et pour Vingt Ans après. À plusieurs reprises d'ailleurs, Courtilz a écrit à la première personne les mémoires des autres, celles du marquis de Montbrun, de M. de Rochefort ou de M. de Bordeaux. On a beaucoup dénigré son style, qui paraît pourtant vif et picaresque.
