Gerard Manley Hopkins

Gerard Manley Hopkins, S.J. (28 July 1844 – 8 June 1889), was an English poet, Roman Catholic convert, and Jesuit priest, whose 20th-century fame established him posthumously among the leading Victorian poets. His experimental explorations in prosody (especially sprung rhythm) and his use of imagery established him as a daring innovator in a period of largely traditional verse. He was educated at Highgate School and then Balliol College, Oxford, where he studied classics. Hopkins was an unusually sensitive student and poet, as witnessed by his class-notes and early poetic pieces. It was at Oxford that he forged a friendship with Robert Bridges (eventual Poet Laureate of England) which would be of importance in his development as a poet, and his posthumous acclaim.

En 1890, elle épouse le 8 avril 1890, à Paris en l'église Saint-Augustin, Edmond Rostand, poète comme elle. Dodette était son surnom familier. Contrairement à ce qu'on pourrait croire, elle n'avait pas formé son prénom de la rencontre de Rose et d'Edmond : elle s'appelait vraiment Rosemonde de façon prédestinée, et ce prénom lui venait de sa grand-mère, Rosemonde de Valence, fille du comte de Valence et épouse du maréchal Gérard. Dans son ascendance elle comptait la célèbre Mme de Genlis. Son père était le comte Gérard, fils du maréchal. Orpheline de père, elle avait dans son conseil de famille Alexandre Dumas et Leconte de Lisle. Rosemonde Gérard avait donc signé de son vrai nom "Les Pipeaux", parus en 1889. Le jeune ménage venait habiter 107, boulevard Malesherbes et peu après 2, rue Fortuny. C'est là qu'allaient naître...

Honoré de Balzac

Honoré de Balzac (n. 20 mai 1799, Tours, Franța – d.18 august 1850, Paris, Franța) a fost un romancier, critic literar, eseist, jurnalist și scriitor francez. El este considerat unul dintre cei mai mari scriitori francezi în domeniul romanului realist, romanului psihologic și a romanului fantastic. Apreciat de critica literară, Gérard Gengembre,[1] G. Vannier cât și de filozofi ca Alain, Albert Béguin el a fost privit ca fiind un vizionar de către Albert Béguin. Datorită complexității operei sale, Balzac a fost greu de încadrat, atât de critica literară din acea perioadă, cât și de cea de astăzi, ca aparținând unei categori deja existente, aparte. El a creat un adevărat monument, "Comedia umană" (în franceză Comédie humaine), ciclu în a cărui componență intră 95 de lucrări terminate (nuvele, romane și eseuri) și 48 lucrări neterminate. Ideea continuității dintr-o lucrare în alta, a uninii, a apărut pentru prima dată în 1830, odată cu gruparea romanelor Sarrasine, Gobseck, sub titlul...
