Life

Édouard Hervé was born in Saint-Denis, La Réunion on 28 May 1835.

A graduate of the École Normale Supérieure, Paris city councilor and advisor to Philippe d'Orléans, Count of Paris (1838–1894), he worked at several newspapers, including Le Journal de Genève (1865–1866)[1] and L'Époque. In 1867, he founded the Journal de Paris. This newspaper was suppressed by the Paris Commune in 1871 when he wrote of the events of March: "The way the population of Paris yesterday expressed its satisfaction was more than frivolous, and we fear it gets worse with time. Paris now has a festive look that is totally inappropriate, and if we do not want to be called Parisians of decadence, we must put an end to this state of affairs. "

In 1873, he founded Le Soleil, the first major daily newspaper priced at 5 centimes.[1] With a monarchist viewpoint, publication was to continue until June 1915.^{[citation needed]} Hervé became a member of the Paris municipal council. He belonged to both the Conférence Molé and the Conférence Tocqueville before their merger to form the Conférence Molé-Tocqueville.[2]

Édouard Hervé is also the author of several historical works, which are actually compilations of his articles. He was made Chevalier of the Legion of Honour in 1873[3] and elected member of the Académie française on 11 February 1886. He died on 4 January 1899 in Paris.[1]
