DORÉ (Auratus), Pierre. - French Dominican preacher and controversialist, b. ca. 1500 at Orléans, d. at Paris on 19 May 1569. At a very young age he took the Dominican habit at Blois (Loir-et-Cher), where he would return in 1545 as prior. He studied at Paris, was a doctor at the Sorbonne and regent of the study house of St. James. He always enjoyed great friendships and favors.

Of his many and ingenious apologetic and ascetic writings, the following should be remembered: Anticaluin contenant deux défenses catholiques de la vérité du S. Sacrement et digne Sacrifice de l'Autel contre certains faux écrits... (Paris 1551, 1568); Les voies du Paradis enseignées par N. S. J. C. en son Evangile (ibid. 1538-40; Lyon 1537-86).
