Sir Michael Edwards , OBE (born 29 April 1938) is an Anglo- French poet and academic .
Born in Barnes , SW London ,[1] Edwards was educated at Kingston Grammar School [1] and Christ's College, Cambridge , where he read French and Spanish. He wrote his doctoral thesis on Jean Racine , completing it in Paris . He was the longtime professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Warwick until 2002, when he was elected to a professorial chair for the Study of Literary Creation in the English Language at the Collège de France .
Edwards was elected to one of the 40 seats in the Académie Française on 21 February 2013, becoming the first English person to be so honoured.[2] [3] He had been nominated previously in 2008,[4] when he received the second highest number of votes in the fourth and final round of voting (eight votes, behind Michel Schneider who received 10) but since no candidate secured a majority the seat then remained vacant.[5] [6]
