  • Charles-Albert Demoustier (13 March 1760 – 2 March 1801) was a French writer. He falsely claimed to be a descendant of La Fontaine by his mother and Racine by his father. Demoustier was born in Villers-Cotterêts. He worked as a lawyer, but later decided to become a writer. In 1786, he published the first part of Lettres à Emilie sur la mythologie. The sixth part was published in 1798. These works, alternating prose and madrigal-like verses, were very successful. Demoustier tried to edit Lettres à Emilie sur la mythologie, but the bookseller who owned the copyrights refused to let him do so, perhaps because he had a stock of earlier copies he wanted to get rid of first. Demoustier was unable to wait, as he died a painful, premature death, in Paris, soon after. He also wrote comedies, among them: * Conciliateur ou l'Homme aimable, in 5 acts and in verse, 1791 * Femmes, in 3 acts and in verse * Alceste ou le misanthrope corrigé, in 3 acts and in verse Demoustier also wrote libretti to some operas (e.g. Épicure, 1800), a Cours de morale, Opuscules and short Poèmes, 1804.

Esta obra, escrita tanto en prosa como en verso, sembrada del espíritu de los madrigales, obtuvo un gran éxito. Más tarde, en un afán perfeccionista, quiso corregir los errores de su obra, pero el librero que compró sus derechos de autoría en 1800 le prohibió toda corrección, parece ser que este librero tenía almacenados muchos ejemplares que quería vender. Demoustier no tuvo ocasión de esperar, ya que le sobrevino una muerte prematura y dolorosa. También compuso comedias, entre ellas: * Conciliateur ou l'Homme aimable, en 5 actos y en verso, 1791; * Femmes, en 3 actos y en verso.; * Alceste ou le misanthrope corrigé, en 3 actos y en verso.
