Charles Du Bos
Charles Du Bos ( born October 27, 1882 in Paris; † August 5, 1939 in La Celle -Saint-Cloud near Versailles ) was a French writer and literary critic.
Du Bos was a friend of André Gide and Ernst Robert Curtius.
Du Bos took over from Henri Bergson a sensitive aestheticism who wants to understand the inner life of the writer's work of art produces. In this way he approached the poets to the new creation.
