François Coppée

François Coppée (1842- 1908), born François Edouard Joachim Coppée, was a French poet, born in Paris. He produced several volumes of poetry, excellent dramas in verse, and tales in prose. His poetry is the poetry of humble life, and "has given poetic pleasure," as Professor Saintsbury says, "to many who are not capable of receiving it otherwise, while he has never sought to give that pleasure by unworthy means".
