PREVOST, EUGENE MARCEL (1862- ) , French novelist, was born in Paris on the 1st of May 1862. He was educated at Jesuit schools in
Bordeaux
  and Paris, entering the Ecole Polytechnique in 1882. He published a story in the
Clairon
  as early as 1881, but for some years after the completion of his studies he applied his technical knowledge to the manufacture of tobacco. He published in succession, Le Scorpion (1887), Chonchette (1888), Mademoiselle Jauffre (1889), Cousine Laura (1890), La
Confession
  d'un arrant (1891), Lettres de femmes (1892), L'Automne d'une femme (1893), and in 1894 he made a
great
  sensation by an exaggerated and revolting study of the results of Parisian education and Parisian society on younggirls, Les Demi-vierges, which was dramatized and produced with
great
  success at the Gymnase on the 21st of May 1895. Le Jardin
secret
  appeared in 1897; and in 1900 Les Vierges fortes, and a study of the question of
women
 's education and independence in two novels Frederique and Lea. L'Heureux
menage
  (1901), Les Lettres a Francoise (1902), La Princesse d'Erminge (1904), and L'Accordeur aveugle (1905) are among his later novels. An amusing picture of
modern
  German manners is given in his Monsieur et Madame Moloch (1906). He had a great success in 1904 with a four act play La Plus faible, produced at the Comedie Frangaise. In 1909 he was elected to the
Academy
 .
