Friend of Collin d'Harleville, Andrieux began his work as a playwright with a comedy in one act and in verse: Anaximander [1782], then he published what remains his greatest success: Les Étourdis ou le Mortsupposé [1788]. Before the Revolution of 1789, he made a career as a prosecutor at Châtelet, then became a lawyer, while continuing to show a great passion for the theater. Andrieux was admitted to the Institute in 1796 [Grammary Class]. He became a member of the Council of Five Hundred in 1798, and was appointed to the Tribunate in Year VIII, which gave him the opportunity to participate in the discussion and drafting of the Civil Code, sometimes in opposition to Bonaparte. , who eliminated him from the political staff in 1802, along with Daunou, Ginguené and Constant. In 1803, Andrieux entered the French Academy [Literature Class], succeeding Guillaume-Chrétien de Lamavoine de Malesherbes in the 38th chair of the institution, of which he became Perpetual Secretary in 1829. After a legal and political career, Andrieux converted to teaching. Holder of the chair of Grammar and Belles-Lettres at the École Polytechnique, from 1804 to 1816, he was appointed Professor of French Literature and Morality at the Collège de France in 1814, a position which he assumed with great success on the the basis of his anticlericalism, more cheerful than that of Voltaire, and of an imperturbable aesthetic neo-classicism which made him pronounce definitive judgments on his younger contemporaries [Balzac, for example] which history ultimately did not ratify. Pale marginal foxing on the biographical pages, otherwise beautiful state of conservation.POSTAL CHARGES DEGRESSIVES FOR SENDING MULTIPLE PHOTOGRAPHS. ___ Bookstore L’Art et la Manner19 Route de Pithiviers45300 BOYNESFranceMember of SLAM and LILA(National Union of Ancient and Modern Bookstores /International League of Old Booksellers)ILAB (International League of Antiquarian Booksellers) English spoken Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any inquiry The greatest care is taken in the description of the works, however, unintentional errors may be made.
