    0.02 sec.

Bazin, René-François-Nicolas-Marie (1853–1932)

French writer. His novels are usually set in a provincial (often peasant) environment, such as Brittany, Alsace, or Burgundy. He is noted as a stylist, using the French language with precision and elegance.

His novels include De toute son âme/Redemption (1897), La Terre qui meurt/Autumn Glory (1899), Les Oberlé/The Children of Alsace (1901), Le Blé qui lève/The Coming Harvest (1907), and Magnificat (1931).

Bazin was a Catholic and a traditionalist; he wrote biographies of the martyred missionary and explorer Charles de Foucald (1929) and Pope Pius X (1928). Among his travel books are Sicile/Sicily (1892) and La Douce France/Gentle France (1911).
