Arthur Plantagenet 1st Viscount Lisle KG (died 3 March 1542) was an illegitimate son of King Edward IV half-brother of Queen Elizabeth of York and thus an uncle of King Henry VIII at whose court he was a prominent figure and by whom he was appointed Lord Deputy of Calais (1533โ40). The survival of a large collection of his correspondence in the Lisle Letters makes his life one of the best-documented of his era.
