Barthélemy, Auguste

MARSEILLE, ( bar -taile-me,) a French poet, was B. at Marseilles, 1796. He first acquired reputation by a satirical poem against the Capuchins. His powers of satire frequently brought him in contact with the government of the restoration; and the revolution of July, 1830, found him in prison. Restored to liberty, he sang the victory of the people, along with M. Méry, in a poem dedicated to the Parisians - L'Insurrection, which became very popular. The later effusions of the poet's genius are war-songs celebrating the victories in the Crimea. As a writer, B. is held by his admirers to exhibit the vehemence of Juvenal, the bitterne of Gilbert, and the causticity of Boileau. D. 1867.
