2. Pierre Augustin Caron De Beaumarchais (1732-1799)
A biography of the French dramatist beaumarchais.
http://www.theatrehistory.com/french/beaumarchais001.html
PIERRE AUGUSTIN CARON DE BEAUMARCHAIS This article was originally published in Encyclopedia Britannica, Eleventh Edition, Volume III . Anonymous. Cambridge: University Press, 1910. pp. 589-90. BEAUMARCHAIS, PIERRE AUGUSTIN CARON DE (1732-1799), French dramatist, was born in Paris on January 24, 1732. His father, a watchmaker named Caron, brought him up to the same trade. He was an unusually precocious and lively boy, shrewd, sagacious, passionately fond of music and imbued with a strong desire for rising in the world. At the age of twenty-one he invented a new escapement for watches, which was pirated by a rival maker. Young Caron at once published his grievance in the Mercure , and had the matter referred to the Academy of Sciences, which decided in his favour. This affair brought him into notice at court; he was appointed, or at least called himself, watchmaker to the king, who ordered from him a watch similar to the one he had made for Mme de Pompadour. His handsome figure and cool assurance enabled him to make his way at court. Mme Franquet, the wife of an old court official, persuaded her husband to make over his office to young Caron, and, on her husband's death, a few months later, married the handsome watchmaker. Caron at the same time assumed the name Beaumarchais; and four years later, by purchasing the office of secretary to the king obtained a patent of nobility.

http://www.comedie-francaise.fr/biographies/beaumarchais.htm
Beaumarchais de Voltaire (1783 - 1790), finance la Compagnie des Eaux, se bat sur tous les fronts, intrépide, dénonçant çà et là les privilèges, toujours la plume à la main, instrument de combat, de séduction, qu'il manie avec éloquence et insolence. Il entre en littérature par la petite porte, fournit à Lenormant d'Étiolles, mari de la Pompadour, des Parades dans le genre poissard (1757 - 1763). Le théâtre l'intéresse cependant d'une manière plus sérieuse, et, suivant les idées développées par Diderot sur le drame bourgeois, il donne à la Comédie-Française Eugénie (1767), demi-échec suivi de la publication d'un ouvrage théorique, Essai sur le genre dramatique sérieux , et les Deux Amis (1770), échec total. Changeant de genre, Beaumarchais projette de donner aux Comédiens italiens qui le refusent, le Barbier de Séville , un opéra-comique. Après aménagements, et tandis que Beaumarchais se débat dans un procès contre le juge Goëzman, la Comédie-Française reçoit en 1773 la comédie du Barbier de Séville , finalement créée en 1775. Le succès n'est pas immédiat. La pièce est coupée et ramenée de 5 à 4 actes, dès la seconde représentation. Une longue série de représentations victorieuses s'ouvre alors. Tout en méditant une suite à l'histoire de son Figaro, Beaumarchais prend la tête des auteurs dramatiques trop longtemps abusés par les Comédiens-Français, qui profitent de leur monopole pour ne pas rétribuer les auteurs comme il conviendrait. D'un conflit mené tambour battant par Beaumarchais, exigeant des comptes exacts, et peu avare en déclarations tonitruantes, naît la Société des auteurs dramatiques (1777 - 1780). Dès 1781

Beaumarchais

"'This is detestable, it will never be played!' was the cry that rang out of the halls of French King Louis XVI when he read the script for a new play by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais (1732-1799), La folle journée, ou Le mariage de Figaro. The King felt that Figaro was impudent and disrespectful as a lower-class citizen because of the way he treats his superiors in the play." Comédie-Française: Beaumarchais

The plays inspired two famous operas, the first composed by Gioachhino Rossini, and the second by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Beaumarchais was one of the most colorful characters of the old Regime, who earned and lost fortunes, served as a secret agent in Britain, and supplied guns to the American revolutionaries. Although he supported the French Revolution, he was forced to go into exile. "No, Monsieur le Comte, you shan't have her! You shan't have her. Because you are a great noble, you think you are a great genius! Nobility, a fortune, a rank, appointments to office: all this makes a man so proud! What did you do to earn all this? You took the trouble to get born - nothing more. Moreover, you're really a pretty ordinary fellow. While as for me, lost in the crowd, I've had to use more knowledge, more brains, just to keep alive than your likes have to spend on governing Spain and the Empire for a century. And you want to contest with me - ..." (from The Marriage of Figaro France joined the American War of Independence against Britain officially in 1778, but Beaumarchais had already supplied arms to the American colonies. He also organized a fleet of merchant ships to carry cannons, ammunition and other equipment and assist the Continental Congress. In exchange for the war supplies the agent of Congress promised to send back produce, chiefly tobacco, as compensation of the debt. 40 years later Beaumarchais's daughter still waited for the compensation, which was about 2 million francs. Congress replied: "Take one third or nothing."

    18. Beaumarchais, The Insolent

    http://www.france.diplomatie.fr/label_france/ENGLISH/ART/BEAUMARC/beaumar.html
      Musician and inventor, businessman and shrewd politician, diplomat and arms merchant, publisher, polemist, free-thinker and man of letters Beaumarchais was truly a man of his age, the 18th century: a jack-of-all-trades smitten with the concept of freedom, of knowledge and with a passion for action. A film entitled Beaumarchais, the insolent, released with great success in France in March 1996, is an opportunity for us to rediscover a figure to whose many facets neither the film, the countless books written about him nor these few lines could ever do justice...
        n the true manner of a master of the unexpected, Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais (1732-1799), author of and Le Mariage de Figaro, burst onto the contemporary French scene unheralded by any official celebrations. It was not an anniversary of his birth or death but a film by Edouard Molinaro that brought this undefinable 18th century figure back to life. Perhaps only one French actor could have played him with due light-heartedness: Fabrice Luchini, accompanied in his sundry enterprises by a troupe of renowned actors (Michel Serrault, Michel Piccoli, Jean-Claude Brialy) and promising talents (Sandrine Kiberlain, Manuel Blanc). As a bright and lively fantasy, the film portrayed a slice from the life of a man who, in fact, always lived several lives at a time. Hence, between 1775 and 1784 (the dates on which his two most successful plays were performed), we are witness to ten key years in Beaumarchais's topsy-turvy existence. As a perfect illustration of Voltaire's motto

        Barbier von Sevilla und von Figaros Hochzeit "nichts Menschliches fremd" Figaros Hochzeit

      Der Wind der Revolution Als getreuer Erbe von Diderot und seinem Meister Voltaire, dessen Gesammelte Werke er herausgab, steht Beaumarchais in der Tradition der Freidenker der Aufklärung. Er vertritt die Gleichheit aller vor dem Gesetz, und wendet sich gegen Privilegien; als leidenschaftlicher Anhänger der Freiheit verdammt er polemisch die Zensur; als Vertreter des Bürgertums, schätzt er die möglichen Rechtfertigungen für eine "natürliche Überlegenheit" des Adels gering:
      "Weil sie ein großer Herr sind, halten sie sich auch für einen großen Geist [...] Was haben Sie denn dafür getan, daß Sie so reich sind? Sie haben sich der Mühe unterzogen, auf die Welt zu kommen, weiter nichts", "Durch den Zufall der Geburt ist der eine König, der andere Schäfer, das Schicksal trennt sie voneinander, doch der Geist kann alles verändern". die Persischen Briefe eines Montesquieu oder der Candide Die Hochzeit des Figaro Le Nozze di Figaro Barbier von Sevilla Gegenstand einer Vertonung werden - durch den italienischen Komponisten Gioacchino Rossini (1816).
