Philippe de Commines (or de Commynes or "Philippe de Comines"; Latin: Philippus Cominaeus; 1447 – October 18, 1511) is a writer and diplomat in the courts of Burgundy and France.

He has been called "the first truly modern writer" (Charles Augustin Sainte-Beuve) and "the first critical and philosophical historian since classical times" (Oxford Companion to English Literature).

Neither a chronicler nor a historian in the usual sense of the word, his analyses of the contemporary political scene are what make him virtually unique in his own time.
