Charles Guillaume Étienne

Also known as: Charles Guillaume Étienne; primary name: Étienne, Charles Guillaume
Details: individual; author/poet; journalist/critic; French; Male
Life dates: 1777-1845
Biography: Journalist and author; editor-in-chief of 'Journal des Débats' (previously 'Journal de l'Empire') and in later life edited 'Le Constitutionnel'. His successful comedies included 'Brueys and Palaprat' (1807) and 'Les Deux Gendres' (1810); the latter was said to have plagiarised an early C18th play by a Jesuit ('Conaxa', 1710) and subsequently Étienne's popularity suffered. His election to the Académie Française (1811) was revoked in 1816; he was elected again in 1829.
