Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PYR-RAY
RAMBERT, EUGENE (1830-1886) , Swiss author, was born at Sales near Swiss Clarens on the 6th of
April
  1830, the eldest son of a Vaudois schoolmaster, from whom he received his education. When in 1845 his father lost his post, owing to the religious disputes, Rambert became a teacher in Paris, and later a tutor in England and at Geneva. When the affairs of the family improved, Rambert was able to pursue his studies for the ministry, but he was more attracted by literature, and in 1845 became professor of French literature at the
academy
  of Lausanne, and in 186o at the Federal
polytechnic
  school at Zurich, where he remained till 1881, when he again became professor at Lausanne. His
principal
 
work
 , Les Alpes suisses (5 vols., 18661875; republished with large additions, according to his own
scheme
 , in 6 vols., 18871889), is a mine of miscellaneous information on the subject. He also published several volumes of poetry, as well as a volume entitled Ecrivains nationaux (1874, republished 1889), and
biographies
  of the pietist Vinet (1875), of the poet Juste Olivier (1879) and of the artist Alexandre Calame (1883). He died on the 21st of November 1886.
Rambert's Dernieres Poesies were edited (1903) by Henri Warnery, whose
Eugene
  Rambert (Lausanne, 189o) contains a
critical
  estimate.
