Angelique (original Angélique) is a series of 13 French historical adventure books by the novelist duo Anne and Serge Golon. The first 10 books have been adapted into English while numbers 11-13 have not. Some of these books were then adapted into 5 popular movies.

Angelique may refer to:

• Angélique (given name)
• Angelique (grape), another name for the French wine grape Mondeuse noire
• Marie-Joseph Angélique, an executed French slave known as "Angelique"
• Angélique, an absinthe launched in 2007 by the distillers of La Clandestine Absinthe
• Angelique, a doll in the Groovy Girls line

"Angelique" was the Danish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1961, performed in Danish by Dario Campeotto.

The song was performed thirteenth on the night, following Norway's Nora Brockstedt with " Sommer i Palma" and preceding Luxembourg's Jean-Claude Pascal with " Nous les amoureux". At the close of voting, it had received 12 points, placing 5th in a field of 16.

The song is a love ballad directed towards the title character, with Campeotto singing about the various things he would do for her if he had the skill - such as writing poetry if he were William Shakespeare or playing the violin if he were Yehudi Menuhin. He explains, however, that "the Muses said no" to his attempts to master the arts (including singing, unusually for a professional singer), so he is simply dreaming about her.

It was succeeded as Danish representative at the 1962 contest by Ellen Winther with " Vuggevise".

The angélique (French, from Italian angelica) is a plucked string instrument of the lute family of the baroque era. It combines features of the lute, the harp, and the theorbo.

It shares the form of its pear shaped body as well as its vibrating string length of 54 to 70 cm with the lute. Differing from the lute, the 15-17 string angelica was single-strung like a theorbo, with which it shares its extended neck with a second peg box, bearing eight to ten bass strings.

The angelica was tuned diatonically, like a harp: C – D – E – F – G – A – B – c – d – e – f – g – a – b – c’ – d’ – e’. That range is the same as that of the French or lesser theorbo, but the latter differs in that its tuning is reentrant: C – D – E – F – G – A – B – c – d – g – c' – e'– a – d'. The diatonic tuning limited its compass, but produced a full and clear tone by the increased use of open strings. There were also some partially diatonic tunings like A - B - C – D – E – F – G – A – B – c – d – f – a– d – f'.

Little surviving music for the angelica as well as few surviving instruments indicate that the angelica flourished during the second half of the 17th and the beginning of the 18th centuries. It is first mentioned by Praetorius (Theatrum instrumentorum, pl.xxxvi), who said it was played like a harp, although the extant music for the instrument shows no such characteristic.

Some authors claim that the angelica was invented in England. But that claim is based on the misinterpretation of its name (M. H. Fuhrmann, Musicalischer Trichter, Frankfurt/Spree 1706, p. 91). James Talbot correctly interpreted angelica as “angel lute“ because of its lovely sound (ms. Oxford 532, 1685–1701).

Music for the angelica is notated in French tablature, with the designation of bass courses varying according to respective authors.

Ukrainian Torban is a descendant of Angélique.

Angélique is a 2013 French adventure film based on the Angelique series of novels by Anne Golon.
