Gautier, Théophile

Gau·tier (gō-tyāʹ), Théophile. 1811-1872.

French writer who influenced French literature during its shift from romanticism to aestheticism and naturalism. His works include Young France (1833) and Enamels and Cameos (1852).

* * *

born Aug. 31, 1811, Tarbes, France
died Oct. 23, 1872, Neuilly-sur-Seine

French poet, novelist, critic, and journalist.

He lived most of his life in Paris, where he initially studied painting. He insisted on the sovereignty of the beautiful in such works as the novel Mademoiselle de Maupin (1835). He developed a poetic technique for recording his exact impressions of works of art, as in the formally perfect poems of Émaux et camées (1852). Travel inspired some of his best poetry, in España (1845), and finest prose, in Voyage en Espagne (1845). He also wrote copious art and drama criticism. His works inspired such poets as Charles Baudelaire, whose Fleurs du Mal was dedicated to him, and his prodigious and varied output influenced literary sensibilities for decades.

▪ French author
byname  Le Bon Théo  
born Aug. 31, 1811, Tarbes, France
died Oct. 23, 1872, Neuilly-sur-Seine
 poet, novelist, critic, and journalist whose influence was strongly felt in the period of changing sensibilities in French literature—from the early Romantic period to the aestheticism and naturalism of the end of the 19th century.

      Gautier lived most of his life in Paris. At the Collège de Charlemagne he met Gérard de Nerval and began a lasting friendship. He studied painting but soon decided that his true vocation was poetry. Sympathetic to the Romantic movement, he took part in the cultural battle that ensued when Victor Hugo's play Hernani was first performed in Paris in 1830. He humorously recalled this period in Histoire du romantisme (1874; “History of Romanticism”) and in Portraits contemporains (1874; “Contemporary Portraits”), in which he gave an excellent description of his friend Honoré de Balzac. He satirized his own extravagances, as well as those of other Romanticists, in Les Jeunes-France (1833; “Young France”). Les Grotesques (1834–36) is about more obscure earlier writers whose individualism anticipated that of the Romantics.

      Gautier's first poems appeared in 1830. Albertus, a long narrative about a young painter who falls into the hands of a sorcerer, was published in 1832. At this time he turned from the doctrines of Romanticism and became an advocate of art for art's sake. The preface to Albertus and the novel Mademoiselle de Maupin (1835) express his views, which caused a considerable stir in literary circles by their disregard of conventional morality and insistence on the sovereignty of the beautiful. His pessimism and fear of death were expressed in the narrative poem La Comédie de la mort (1838; “The Comedy of Death”).

      In 1840 Gautier visited Spain; the colour of the land and people inspired some of his best poetry, in España (1845), and prose, in Voyage en Espagne (1845). After this trip he found traveling to be a welcome escape from the constant pressures of his journalistic work, which he pursued to support himself, two mistresses, and his three children, as well as his two sisters. From 1836 to 1855 he was a weekly contributor to La Presse and Le Moniteur Universel; in 1851, editor of Revue de Paris; in 1856, editor of L'Artiste. Besides this work he contributed to many other periodicals and papers. Gautier often bemoaned the conditions of his existence; he felt that journalism was draining off the creative energy that should have been reserved for poetry.

      Traveling, especially in Greece, strengthened his theory of art, his admiration of classical forms. He felt that art should be impersonal, free from the obligation of teaching moral lessons. The aim of the artist is to concentrate on achieving perfection of form. He developed a technique in poetry that he called transposition d'art (“transposing art”), recording his exact impressions when experiencing a painting or other work of art. These poems, published in Émaux et camées (1852; “Enamels and Cameos”), are among his finest, and the book was a point of departure for the writers Théodore de Banville and Leconte de Lisle. Charles Baudelaire paid tribute to Gautier in the dedication of his verse collection Les Fleurs du mal.

      Gautier's poetic and fantastic imagination is seen to advantage in his short fiction—e.g., the evocations of ancient Pompeii in Arria Marcella (1852) and the vampire story La Mort amoureuse (1857; “The Dead Lover”). His literary output was prodigious, but his art and dramatic criticism alone—partly reprinted in Les Beaux-Arts en Europe (1855) and in Histoire de l'art dramatique en France depuis vingt-cinq ans, 6 vol. (1858–59; “History of Drama in France for Twenty-Five Years”)—would ensure his reputation. As a ballet critic he remains unrivaled. He also wrote plays and the popular ballet Giselle, written in collaboration with Vernoy de Saint-Georges.

      Gautier was held in esteem by many of his contemporaries who were also prominent literary figures: Gustave Flaubert, Charles-Augustin Sainte-Beuve, the Goncourt brothers, Banville, and Baudelaire. In his last years he became the friend of the Princess Mathilde, who gave him a sinecure post as a librarian to ease his financial strain.
