Biography
Frédéric Amouretti was born in Toulon, the son of Etienne Henri Amouretti and Anne Marie Guigon. He lived in Cannes and was a student at the Faculty of Letters when his father died in 1886. Amouretti was thus exempted from military service as the "only son of a widow".
Artistically close to the Félibrige, around Frédéric Mistral, and the École Romane, around Jean Moréas, Amouretti was politically close to Charles Maurras, with whom he campaigned for federalism and the idea of decentralization.[1] At the same time, he contributed to Maurice Barrès' La Cocarde.
He was one of the first editors of the Revue d'Action française before his premature death at the age of forty in Pierrefeu-du-Var.
