A French historian and poet; born at Bondy near Paris, in 1735; died at Paris, Jan. 30, 1791. While aide-de-camp to Richelieu, he composed his "Discourse upon Disputes", a witty poem which Voltaire inserted in his "Philosophic Dictionary". In 1771 he was named political writer to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and visited London and Poland in that capacity. His historical works are noted for their strict honesty and justice, and his poetry for its ease and freedom of expression. He excels in short tales and epigrams. His historical works include: "Explanations of the Causes of the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes" (1788); "Anecdotes of the Russian Revolution in 1762" (1797); and "History of the Anarchy of Poland" (4 vols., 1807; 4th ed. 1862), his finest work. His poetry includes "Rough Play" (1808), and many small fragments.
