Introduction à l’œuvre du Mauricien Léoville L’Homme à partir des notes introductives au poème Le Rock de Cirné

Abstract

Léoville L’Homme is an emblematic figure of Mauritian literature and his contribution to its development is remarkable both in quality and volume. He was the editor-in-chief of important daily newspapers, some of which he created, a politically active journalist in favour of constitutional reforms, a columnist in several dailies and an admired poet: his input has left a deep lasting impression, becoming himself a model in spite of the failure of one of his major poetical projects, Le Rock de Cirné.
