Jean-François-Henri Collot

Jean-François-Henri Collot (Pont-d’Arches, near Charleville-Mézières 26 January 1716 – October 1804 in Mesnil, near Châlons-sur-Marne) was an 18th-century French homme de lettres and encyclopédiste.

Collot devoted to the cultivation of letters the leisure that allowed him the occupation of commissary of war, a position that he filled successively in Grenoble, Rennes and Nancy.

André-Joseph Collot was his brother.
