Maybe it would be best to drop the piscatory metaphors altogether.

The son of François Hyacinthe Arcambal (an employee of the French ministry of war) and of Thérèse Rosalie Pélagie Deshayes, Piscatory was born on 6 April 1800. He was adopted by Antoine Pierre Piscatory and took his name. A fervent hellenophile, Piscatory left France in 1825 to take part in the Greek War of Independence. It was in Greece that he met and befriended Kolettis, then head of the Greek government from and future Greek ambassador to Louis Philippe I (1835–1844).

Piscatory attempted to follow a political career under the Second French Republic and was elected representative for the département of Indre- et-Loire in the Assemblée législative on 13 May 1849. He was one of the most active members of the majority, belonging to the rue de Poitiers committee. Piscatory supported the Rome expedition, the Falloux law on education, 31 May 1850 electoral law (for which he was on the planning commission), and the revision of the French constitution. He took part in the commission for public assistance and foresight, presided over by Thiers.

In September 1843, a coup broke out in Greece, forcing Otto to promise to convene a national assembly to create a Greek constitution. Piscatory was most likely not at the forefront of the movement, but still played an important role. In the days following the coup, he went to the royal palace several times and insisted that Otto not renege on his promises. After a short and fruitless attempt at rapprochement with the British ambassador Edmund Lyons, Piscatory followed a policy of actively supporting Kolettis' government from its formation onward and managed to effectively counterbalance British influence.

Piscatory continued to satisfy his government and was made a peer of France on 21 July 1846 and a commander of the Légion d'honneur on 31 August 1846—a year in which French influence in Greece gave rise to the new and powerful instrument thanks to Piscatory's efforts and those of the French education minister comte de Salvandy. Upon the death of Kolettis, Piscatory requested to be recalled to France. The French government instead moved him to replace comte Bresson as ambassador to Madrid on 10 December 1847. The French Revolution of 1848 stopped him taking up this post and the appointment was revoked by the provisional French government on 11 March 1848.

Piscatory was one of the representatives who gathered in the town hall of the tenth arrondissement of Paris to protest the 2 December 1851 coup. This forced him to leave politics once and for all. He did, however, retain links with Guizot and joined him in 1867 in forming a Greek committee in support of the Cretan insurgents.

After World War II, watermills on the river of Istok were nationalized and a new fish plant was built to operate as a socially owned enterprise. The company's name under Yugoslavia was "Ribnjak", meaning "piscatory" or "fishery" in Serbian. It was later privatized as Motel "Trofta", meaning "trout" in Albanian - the type of fish it has and is still producing, selling, and distributing. The company employs around 70 people.

Henry Marion Hall included consideration of Diaper's Nereides in his monograph Idylls of Fishermen (Columbia University, 1912), claiming them as "piscatory eclogues" in a genre descending from Idyll XXI of Theocritus, a claim disputed by Diaper's eventual editor.Broughton, 1952, pp. xxviii ff. This came about after the poet's reputation was revived in the mid-20th century by the critic Geoffrey Grigson, who devoted an enthusiastic radio talk to Diaper and later included it in his book of essays, The Harp of Aeolus (1947).

He was admitted a scholar of Eton, and in 1600 entered King's College, Cambridge. He graduated B.A. in 1604, and M.A. in 1608, and was one of the contributors to Sorrow's Joy (1603). His pastoral drama, Sicelides, or Piscatory was written (1614) for performance before James I, but only produced after the king's departure at King's College. He had been ordained priest and before 1611 became a fellow of his college, but he left Cambridge before 1616, apparently because certain emoluments were refused him.

Annulus piscatoris of Pope Leo XIII. The Ring of the Fisherman (Latin: Anulus piscatoris; Italian: Anello Piscatorio), also known as the Piscatory Ring, is an official part of the regalia worn by the Pope, who is head of the Catholic Church and successor of Saint Peter, who was a fisherman by trade. It used to feature a bas-relief of Peter fishing from a boat, a symbolism derived from the tradition that the apostles were "fishers of men" (Mark 1:17). The Fisherman's Ring is a signet used until 1842 to seal official documents signed by the Pope.

His diplomatic career began in 1841 - from June to September, Guizot, then French foreign minister, sent him to travel throughout Greece. His mission was to assure the Greek leaders of French support for their cause and influence in the region, to assess Greece's progress since the arrival of Otto I, and to check whether or not France should deliver the third installment of the loan it had agreed to pay Greece. It was on this trip that Piscatory renounced his former acquaintances and to prove himself as a diplomat. Guizot was satisfied by Piscatory's services and made him France's minister plenipotentiary to the king of Greece in April 1843.

On 3 July 1820 Talleyrand left Paris for Valençay accompanied by Dorothea, then pregnant with her third child, Pauline, whose paternity is sometimes attributed to Talleyrand. Despite having been his companion (he was 39 years her senior) she took several lovers, gaining a reputation as a formidable seductress and bearing three illegitimate daughters (one of whom, born in 1816, was perhaps Božena Němcová, the great Czech writer, fathered by Count Karel Jan Clam Martinic, her lover at the Congress of Vienna; the two others, Julie Zulmé and Antonine Piscatory, were born in 1826 and 1827). Dorothée, duchesse de Dino, c. 1830 She became duchess of Talleyrand on 28 April 1838. On 6 (or 8) January 1845, the king of Prussia invested Dorothea as duchess of Sagan (with the special privilege of the dukedom being able to descend via the female as well as the male line), with her son Louis-Napoléon, godson of Napoleon and Louis-Napoléon's grandson Boson de Talleyrand-Périgord immediately taking the title of prince of Sagan.
