Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, Jacques-Henri

0.02 sec.

Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, Jacques-Henri (1737–1814)

French writer. His masterpiece was Paul et Virginie, a sentimental idyll of love set in Mauritius. It was followed by La Chaumière indienne/The Indian Cottage (1790). Both had great influence on Romantic literature by their new note of exoticism.

Bernardin de Saint-Pierre was born in Le Havre. He entered the army as an engineer, and from 1768 to 1771 was government engineer in Mauritius. His Voyage à l'Ile de France (1773) gained him a reputation for its close portrayal of nature. He was greatly influenced by the writings of the social philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
