A Romance of Youth - Softcover
François Edouard Joachim Coppée (1842-1908), was a French poet and novelist. In 1869 his first play, Le Passant, was received with approval at the Odéon theatre, and later Fais ce Que Dois (1871) and Les Bijoux de la Délivrance (1872), short poetic dramas inspired by the Franco-Prussian War, were applauded. Coppée was famed as Le Poète des Humbles (the poet of the humble). His verse and prose focus on plain expressions of emotion, patrotism, the joy of young love, and the pitifulness of the poor. He continued to write plays, mostly serious dramas in verse, two in collaboration with Armand d'Artois. He published his first prose work in 1875 and went on to publish short stories, an autobiography of his youth, a series of short articles on miscellaneous subjects, and La Bonne Souffrance, a popular account of his reconversion to the Roman Catholic Church. His other works include Madame de Maintenon (1881), Severo Torelli (1883), Les Jacobites (1885), Le Pater (1889) and Ten Tales (1890).
