'''Chardri''' ( early 13th century) was an [[Anglo-Norman language|Anglo-Norman]] poet, probably from western [[England]]. His pen name is probably an [[anagram]] of Richard.<ref name=BM>Brian Merrilees, "Chardri", in [[Joseph Strayer|J. Strayer]] (ed.), ''[[Dictionary of the Middle Ages]]'', Vol. 3 (Charles Scribner's Sons, 1983), pp. 267–268.</ref>
Three of his poems, all in [[rhyming]] [[octosyllabic]] [[couplet]]s, have survived. ''La vie de seint Josaphaz'' presents [[Barlaam and Josaphat|a Christianized version]] of the life of [[Buddha]] in 2,954 lines. ''La vie des set dormanz'' records the story of the [[Seven Sleepers of Ephesus]] in 1,898 lines. Both of these are [[hagiographic]], but ''Le petit plet'' in 1,780 lines is [[didactic]].<ref name=BM/>
