Ernest Lavisse
Ernest Lavisse ( born December 17, 1842 in Le Nouvion -en- thiérache, Aisne, Picardie, † August 18, 1922 in Paris) was a French historian who was a member of the Académie française in 1892, and extensive works on the history of France and Germany's history wrote.
Life
After schooling completed Lavisse study and later took over a professorship of history at the University of Toulouse and at the Philosophical Faculty of the University of Paris.
On 2 June 1892 he was elected a member of the Académie française, and took there as successor by Edmond Jurien de La Gravière the sixth chair ( fauteuil 6). Upon his election, he was able to prevail against Ferdinand Brunetière and Émile Zola. He himself had withdrawn his candidacy for admission to the Académie française against the politician Charles de Freycinet two years earlier.
Together with the historian and sometime minister of public instruction Alfred Nicolas Rambaud he edited from 1893 to 1900 Histoire générale du IVe siècle à nos jours, a twelve-volume history of France from the 4th century to the present. Lavisse, who was since 1894 the editor of the Revue de Paris, in 1903 as the successor of Georges Perrot Director of the École Normale Supérieure in Paris and ran it until his replacement by Gustave Lanson 1919. Lavisse was honored for his achievements with the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour.
Lavisse wrote in addition to numerous books on the history of France as the Battle of Bouvines also a number of works on the history of Germany as the Three Emperors in 1888, but also to historical figures such as Maximilien de Béthune, duc de Sully, and in particular a translated into German representation of the youth of Frederick the Great. His work is influenced, among other things, the thinking of the politician Émile Driant.
An uproar there was in 1923, when refused on the respective predecessor after his death his successor for the armchair 6, the playwright Georges de Porto- Riche, writing the eulogy prescribed and therefore, never officially recorded, though they have been elected to the Académie française been.
