MOREAU, HEGESIPPE (18ro-1838)

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 827 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOL-MOS
MOREAU, HEGESIPPE (18ro-1838) , French lyric poet, was born in Paris on the 9th of April 18ro. In his early youth his parents, who were poor, migrated to
Provins
 , where the
mother
  went into service and the father took the post of usher in a public school. He went to Paris before 1830, and lived a Bohemian life. He was habitually houseless, and exposed himself to the dangers of a cholera
hospital

in the
great
  epidemic of 1832 simply to obtain shelter and food. Then he revisited
Provins
  and published a kind of satirical serial called Diogene. Some years of this life entirely ruined his
health
 , and it was only just before his death that he succeeded in getting his collected poems published, selling the copyright for 4
sterling
  and 8o copies of the book. This volume, Myosotis, was received not unfavourably, but the author's death on the 20th of December 1838, in a
refuge
  of the destitute, created an
interest
  in it which was proportionately excessive. Moreau's
work
  has a strong note of imitation, especially in his earlier songs, distinguished from those of his model, Beranger, chiefly by their elegiac note. Some of his poems, such as the elegy La Voulsie (1837) and the charming romance La Fermiere (1835), have
great
  sweetness and show incontestable poetic power. Moreau wrote some charming
prose
  stories: Le Gui de chane, La Souris blanche, &c:
