  1. Eugène Brieux

    Eugène Brieux, French dramatist, was born in Paris of poor parents. A one-act play, Bernard Palissy, written in collaboration with M. Gaston Salandri, was produced in 1879, but he had to wait eleven years before he obtained another hearing, his Ménage d'artistes being produced by Antoine at the Théâtre Libre in 1890. His plays are essentially didactic, being aimed at some weakness or iniquity of the social system. Blanchette pointed out the civic results of education of girls of the working classes; Monsieur de Réboval was directed against pharisaism; L'Engrenage against corruption in politics; Les Bienfaiteurs against the frivolity of fashionable charity; and L'Évasion satirized an indiscriminate belief in the doctrine of heredity. Les trois filles de M. Dupont is a powerful, somewhat brutal, study of the miseries imposed on poor middle-class girls by the French system of dowry; Le Résultat des courses shows the evil results of betting among the Parisian workmen; La Robe rouge was directed against the injustices of the law; Les Remplaçantes against the practice of putting children out to nurse.
