Alexandre Soumet
Alexandre Soumet (French: [sumɛ] poet .
Biography [ edit ]
Alexandre Soumet was born at Castelnaudary , département of Aude . His love of poetry began at an early age. He was an admirer of Klopstock and Schiller , then little known in France. Soumet moved to Paris in 1810 and wrote poems in honor of Napoleon that secured his nomination as auditeur of the Conseil d'État . His elegy La pauvre fille appeared in 1814, and two successful tragedies produced in 1822, Clytemnestre Saül , secured his admission to the Academy in 1824. Jeanne d'Arc (1825) was his most critically acclaimed play. Elisabeth de France (1828) was a weak imitation of Schiller's Don Carlos but Soumet's real bent was towards epic poetry . A poem inspired by Klopstock, La divine épopée , describes the descent of Christ into Hades .[1]
Soumet's Norma, ou L'infanticide (Norma, or The Infanticide ) was adapted by Vincenzo Bellini into the well-known opera Norma
Under Louis XVIII Soumet became librarian of Saint-Cloud , and subsequently was transferred to Rambouillet and to Compiègne .[1]
He died leaving an unfinished epic on Jeanne d'Arc . His daughter Gabrielle (Mme Beauvain d'Altenheim) had collaborated with him in some of his later works.[1]
