Paul Landois was an 18th-century French playwright.

We have no information on the life of this obscure writer regarded as the inventor of an intermediary theatrical genre which he called bourgeois tragedy and which was adopted by La Chaussée, Diderot, Beaumarchais, and finally by the playwrights of the 19th century.

He composed some plays, including one entitled Silvie, in one act and in prose, played by the comedians of the Comédie-Française in 1741.

He also is the author, under the signature "R", of more than 110 articles of the Encyclopédie by Diderot and D’Alembert, including those related to "peinture", "sculpture" and "gravure".
