"Gabriel Jean Baptiste Ernest Wilfrid Legouvé (14 February 1807 – 14 March 1903) was a French dramatist...As time passed on, however, he became less prominent as a playwright, and more so as a lecturer and propagandist on women's rights and the advanced education of children, in both of which directions he was a pioneer in French society. His La Femme en France au XIXe siècle (1864) , reissued, much enlarged, in 1878; his Messieurs les enfants (1868) , his Conférences Parisiennes (1872) , his Nos filles et nos fils (1877) , and his Une Éducation de jeune fille (1884) were works of wide-reaching influence in the moral order." .
