“A street named after Ernest Tissot? What an interesting choice,” you might think to yourself. Rue Ernest Tissot, tucked away in the charming town of Saint-Cloud, is indeed named after a man of letters. Ernest Tissot, born in Geneva, may not have been directly associated with this particular street, but his legacy as a writer is what we celebrate today. He was a recipient of not one, but two prestigious awards from the Académie Française, a testament to his literary prowess. His work often delved into philosophical and societal themes. He notably critiqued Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson’s play “Beyond Human Power”, engaging in a discourse on the concept of the “superman” as posited by the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Tissot also explored themes of love, crime, and the human condition in his review of Gabriel d’Annunzio’s “More Than Love”. His insightful analyses, published in esteemed journals like the “Revue Bleue”, cemented his place in the world of literature. So, as you stroll along Rue Ernest Tissot, remember the man who, through his words, explored the profound depths of the human experience.
