Émile-Auguste Chartier (; 3 March 1868 – 2 June 1951), commonly known as Alain ((:alɛ̃)), was a French philosopher, journalist, and pacifist. Alain entered lycée d'Alençon in 1881 and studied there for five years. On 13 June 1956, the lycée was renamed lycée Alain, after its most famous student. After Alain qualified at the École Normale Supérieure and received the agrégation in philosophy, he taught at various institutions, Pontivy, Lorient, ''Lycée Pierre Corneille'' in Rouen,〔(Lycée Pierre Corneille de Rouen - History )〕 and in Paris (Lycée Condorcet and Lycée Michelet). From 1903, he contributed to several journals using his pseudonym, Alain. He was most commonly referred to as "Alain" by his pupils and peers. In 1909, he was appointed a teacher (or professor) at the Lycée Henri-IV in Paris. He deeply influenced his pupils, who included Raymond Aron, Simone Weil, Georges Canguilhem, and André Maurois.〔 Reviewing the beneficial effect he had on his former pupils Simone Weil and Simone de Beauvoir, Professor John Hellman writes that Alain was the greatest teacher of their generation.〔 〕 He is buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery. Among his most important publications are ''The Dreamer'', ''81 chapters about the spirit and passions'', ''About Happiness'', ''Mars'', and ''The citizen against powers''.〔 ==Works (selection)== *''Petit Traité d'Harmonie pour les aveugles'' (''Small Treaty of Harmony for the Blind''; in braille), 1918 *''Mars; Or the Truth about War'', New York, Jonathan Cape & Harrison Smith N.D., 1930 *''Alain on Happiness'', New York, Ungar, 1973 *''The Gods, New directions'', 1974 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Émile Chartier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
