Who was Étienne Lamy?

Étienne Marie Victor Lamy was a French author, born in Cize, Jura. He was educated at the College Stanislas and became a doctor of law in 1870. From 1871 to 1881 he was a deputy from his native department, Jura, and his earlier writings were political and historical. In the House of Deputies he was a member of the Left, but he broke with his party and became a clerical reactionary, writing for the Gaulois and the Correspondant. In 1905 he became a member of the Académie française, and in 1913 he succeeded Thureau-Dangin as its perpetual secretary. Among Lamy's works are:

Le tiers parti

L'Armée et la democratie

La France du Levant

Etudes sur le second empire

La femme de demain

an edition of the memoirs of Aimée de Coigny
