The Immortal By Alphonse Daudet Alphonse Daudet (1840-1897), ne a Nimes (Gard), est un ecrivain et auteur dramatique francais. Daudet se consacra a l ecriture, non seulement comme chroniqueur au journal Le Figaro mais aussi comme romancier. Puis, apres avoir fait un voyage en Provence, Alphonse commenca a ecrire les premiers textes qui feront partie des Lettres de mon Moulin (1869). Il connut son premier succes en 1862-1865, avec la Derniere Idole, piece montee a l Odeon et ecrite en collaboration avec Ernest Manuel - pseudonyme d Ernest Lepine. Puis, il obtint, par le directeur du journal L Evenement, l autorisation de les publier comme feuilleton pendant tout l ete de l annee 1866, sous le titre de Chroniques Provencales. Le premier vrai roman d Alphonse Daudet fut Le Petit Chose ecrit en 1868. C est en 1874 qu Alphonse decida d ecrire des romans de moeurs comme: Fromont Jeune et Risler Aine mais aussi Jack (1876) et Le Nabab (1877). Pendant ces travaux de romancier et de dramaturge, il n oublia pas pour autant son travail de conteur: il ecrivit en 1872 Tartarin de Tarascon, qui fut son personnage mythique.
