Alfred de Musset

Alfred de Musset

1810–57, French romantic poet, dramatist, and fiction writer.… Most of his poems appeared first in Revue des deux mondes; they included such famous pieces as the gloomy “Rolla” (1833) and the exquisite love lyrics “La Nuit de mai,” “La Nuit d’août,” “La Nuit d’octobre,” and “La Nuit de décembre” (1835–36).… He also wrote some brilliant nouvelles, but from 1840 he passed rapidly into decline. The autobiographical novel Confession d’un enfant du siècle (1836), gives an account of his affair with George Sand and reflects the disillusioned mood of many of his contemporaries.—continue at Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition.
