Gustave d'Eichthal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gustave Séligmann d'Eichthal (born March 3, 1804 in Nancy; died April 9, 1886 in Paris) was a French writer and publicist.
He was an adherent of Saint-Simonianism.
Jane Welsh Carlyle, wife of Thomas Carlyle, described him as "a gentle soul, trustful, and earnest-looking, ready to do and suffer all for his faith".
He had two sons, Eugène Séligmann d'Eichthal, born November 3, 1844 in Paris, died February 28, 1936 in Paris; and Georges Séligmann d'Eichthal, as well as a daughter whose married name was Mme. Paul Le Bret. She had been a friend of Rosa Bonheur when they were both children, as their fathers had both lived briefly at the Saint-Simonian monastery at Ménilmontant.
