description: French historian Theodore Gosselin wrote under the penname G. Lenotre -- articles in "Figaro," "Revue des deux mondes," "Monde illustre" and "Temps." He produced a great deal of fiction and nonfiction regarding the French Revolution and its Reign of Terror; his work was recognized and admired by his contemporaries and Gosselin was made an officer of the Legion d'honneur. In 1932, near the end of his life, he was elected to the Academie francaise -- but issues having to do with his health prevented him from delivering the speech which he had written in homage to his Academie predecessor (whose seat he had inherited), Rene Bazin."
