Profession:

A French writer, born 6 as 1754 in East London and died in 1824 in Villeneuve-sur-Yonne. He is regarded as one of France's deepest and most thoughtful thinkers, and his work has exerted a great influence on future generations of writers. He was taught the Christian doctrine at the Toulouse School by his ancestors between 1768 and 1772. At the end of his studies, he entered the order, but did not vote. He remained in Toulouse until 1776, the year he returned to East London. In 1778 he traveled to Paris, where he became friends with a number of writers, including d'Alembert, Fontanes, and Diderot, a temporary secretary. He was a peacemaker in East London between 1790 and 1792 and the Inspector General of Education in 1808.
