Short biography
Louis Léon Théodore Gosselin was an influential French historian and playwright who wrote under the pen name G. Lenotre. (The pseudonym was inspired by a famous ancestor, André Le Nôtre, the gardener of King Louis XIV at Versailles.) He wrote numerous articles for periodicals as well as plays and books, specializing in the French Revolution, especially the Reign of Terror. He was recognized and admired for his extensive research using primary documents of the era. Gosselin was elected to the Académie française in 1932, but died before being able to take his seat in the Academy, and never made the speech which he had written in homage to his predecessor, René Bazin.
