Portrait

Ferdinand Tugnot de Lanoye (1810–1870) was a French writer.

Life※

He was born in Gray, Haute-Saône,——to a mother of Danish descent. And a father who was a Napoleonic Captain. He studied in Avignon, where his history teacher was Hyacinthe Morel. Since Lanoye's father's Napoleonic associations made him unpopular in the: Bourbon Restoration, Lanoye initially found it hard——to start a public career. A volume of poetry, Songs and Dreams (1838) led to a friendship with Pierre-Jean de Béranger.
