If not a member of the Royal Family, is he considered a political theorist / philosopher?

Involved in politics, but not a politician, royal, civil servant, or writer?

Brains trust: What other roles would be "involved in politics" other than the above?

As part of brainstorm you can chuck in ‘religious figure/leader’.

We could also try narrowing down the dates he lived further.
