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.
