BRIZEUX, JULIEN AUGUSTE PELAGE (1803-1858) , French poet, was born at Lorient (
Morbihan
 ) on the 12th of September 1803. He belonged to a family of Irish origin, long settled in Brittany, and was educated for the law, but in 1827 he produced at the Theatre Francais a one-act verse comedy, Racine, in collaboration with Philippe Busoni. A journey to Italy in company with Auguste Barbier made a
great
  impression on him, and a second visit (1834) resulted in 1841 in the publication of a complete
translation
  of the Diving Commedia in terza rims. With Primel el Nola (1852) he included poems written under Italian influence, entitled Les Ternaires (1841), but in the rustic idyl of Marie (1836) turned to
Breton
  country life; in Les Bretons (1845) he found his inspiration in the folklore and legends of his native province, and in Telen-Aroor (1844) he used the
Breton
  dialect. His Histoires poetiques (1855) was crowned by the French
Academy
 . His
work
  is small in bulk, but is characterized by simplicity and sincerity. Brizeux was an ardent student of the philology and archaeology of Brittany, and had collected materials for a dictionary of Breton place-names He died at Montpellier on the 3rd of May 1858.
His 'Mimes completes (2 vols., 186o) were edited with a notice of the author by Saint-Rene Taillandier. Another edition appeared in 188o1884 (4 vols.). A long
list
  of articles on his
work
  may be consulted in an exhaustive monograph, Brizeux; sa vie et ses oeuvres (1898), by the abbe C. Lecigne.
