Jacques-Maximilien Benjamin Bins, comte de Saint-Victor (1772–1858) was a French poet and man of letters.

Personal[edit]

Bins de Saint-Victor was born in Fort Dauphin, Saint Domingue (now Fort-Liberté, Haiti) on the island of Hispaniola in 1772. At the time of his birth, Saint Domingue was a French colony. He died in Paris in 1858.

His son, Paul de Saint-Victor, became a well-known essayist and critic.

Career[edit]

During the First Empire, Bins de Saint-Victor was arrested as a royalist conspirator and incarcerated at Paris. After the fall of Napoleon, he was one of the editors of the Journal des débats and also worked on the Drapeau blanc. Having tried without success to found a bookstore with Félicité Robert de Lamennais, he spent some time in the United States. On his return he worked at the La France newspaper.

In addition to his poetical works and a verse translation of Anacreon, he published numerous historical studies as well as three opera libretti.
