FLEURY [ABRAHAM JOSEPH BENARD] (1750-.1822)

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 500 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FLA-FRA
FLEURY [ABRAHAM JOSEPH BENARD] (1750-.1822) , French actor, was born at Chartres on the 26th of October x75o, and began his stage
apprenticeship
  at,
Nancy
 , where his father was at the head of a company of actors attached to the court of King
Stanislaus
 . After four years in the provinces, he came to Paris in 1778, and almost immediately was madesocietaire at the ComedieFrancaise, although the public was slow to recognize him as the greatest comedian of his time. In 1793
Fleury
 , like the rest of his fellow-players, was arrested in consequence of the presentation of
Laya
 's L'
Anti
  des leis, and, when liberated, appeared at various theatres until, in 1799, he rejoined the rehabilitated Comedic Frarrcaise. After
forty
  years of service he retired in 1818! And died on the 3rd of
March
  1822. He was notoriously illiterate, and it is probable that the interesting Memoire de
Fleury
  owes more to its author, Lafitte, than to the subject whose " notes and papers " it is said to contain.
