⁂ Andre Tiraqueau's legal works are of great importance in the development of the French judicial system. He was an active member of the Cenacle de Fontenay-le-Comte, a salon of fellow lawyers, writers, doctors, philosophers and historians, which included François Rabelais and Guillaume Budé amongst its members. Rabelais' Tiers Livre was greatly influenced by Tiraqueau's De Legibus.
