QUERARD, JOSEPH MARIE (1797-1865) ,
French
  bibliographer, was
born
  at
Rennes
  on the 25th of
December
  1797. He was apprenticed to a bookseller in his native town, and was sent abroad on business. He remained in Vienna from 1819 to 1824, and there drew up the first volumes of his
great
 
work
 , La
France
  lilteraire, ou Dictionnaire bibliographique des savants, historiens, et gens de lettres de la
France
 , &c. (10 vols., 1826-1842), dealing especially with the 18th and early 19th centuries, which he was enabled to
complete
  by a government subsidy granted by Guizot in 183o, and by the help of the
Russian
  bibliophile Serge Poltoratzky. The
firm
  of Didot, who were his publishers, took out of his hands the Litterature francaise contemporaine with which he had intended to
complete
  his
work
 , and placed it with Ch. Louandre and F. Bourquelot. Querard avenged himself by pointing out the errors of his successors. In spite of his claims Querard was unable to secure a position in any of the public libraries. He died in Paris on the 3rd of
December
  1865.
Among his other works are: Les supercheries titteraires devoilees (5 vols., 184556); Bibliographie La Menaisienne (1849); Dictionnaire des ouvrages-polyonymes et anonymes de la litterature francaise, 17001850 (184647); an additional volume to La France littiraire entitled Ecrivains pseudonymes, &c. (185456). See Mar. Jozon d'Erquar, Querard, in La France litteraire (1854), vol. xi.
