François Guizot's private secretary, literary critic, founder, owner, printer, chief editor and director of the Le Camp-volant (1819-1820), the Journal des théâtres, de la littérature et des arts (1820-1823), the Le Coureur des spectacles (1842-1849), he was managing editor of the Courrier des théâtres, de la littérature, des arts, des modes from 12 April 1823 to 14 May 1842 and of the Nouvelles des théâtres, de la littérature et des arts from 13 July 1842 to 17 September 1842.

An author of theoretical works on theater, he showed himself a staunch opponent of the romantic school.

He married Geneviève Isabelle Vauvilliers on 8 August 1811.[1]
