[edit] Biography
As a seminarian, Diouloufet had to leave Provence for Italy with the advent of the French Revolution.
Under the Empire, he became a trader in Aix-en-Provence[1]. He made friends with Ambroise Roux-Alphéran, who lived on the same street as him.[2] A librarian in Aix, he was dismissed during the French Revolution of 1830.
[edit] Work and themes
His Provençal poetry, fables and tales didn't go unnoticed at the time of publication.[citation needed]
His work is pervaded by the use of a very raw strand of Provençal.
He died before finishing a French-Occitan dictionary.[4].
