Robert Shawl

Robert Shawl , or Robert Shawls , born with Paris on August 17th, 1659 and died in Chartres on January 25th, 1721, is a writer French.

Shawl made its studies with the Collège of Walk with Colbert de Seignelay, which inserted it writer in the navy. Shawls, after being itself made known as jurisconsult, travelled much, and was a prisoner of the English to the Canada, then Turks in the Raising. It then returned to France while passing by Lisbon and Cadiz. He became writer of ship in a boat which carries out it in India and to the Siam.

It was a enjoué man, who liked the good expensive one, and especially, as he said it itself, to wash the gosier; i.e. it was school of Rabelais and, like this one, it liked to exert its liveliness against the monks. Some of its projections made it exile of Paris and relegate to Chartres, where he lived poorly before dying.
