Gide, André Paul Guillaume

World Encyclopedia | 2005 | Copyright

Gide, André Paul Guillaume (1869–1951) French novelist, playwright, and critic. His novels and Journals (1885–1950) show the constant struggle between his puritan and pagan elements. Mature works, such as Les Faux-monnayeurs (1926), dramatize a search for spiritual truth. He received the 1947 Nobel Prize in literature.
