Lamartine

Japanese: ラマルティーヌ

French poet and politician. Born into an aristocratic family. With his first collection of poems, Meditations (1820), he revived lyric poetry and became the first Romantic poet. After 1820, he wrote Poems in Poetic and Religious Harmonies, as well as Josselin and The Fall of the Angel, which were based on the concept of an epic poem that sang the history of mankind. He also worked as a diplomat and liberal politician. After the February Revolution, he served as Minister of Foreign Affairs, but was soon ousted. In his later years, he wrote many novels and other works to repay his debts.
