François René de Chateaubriand (1768-1848) French writer, politician, diplomat and historian. Known as the “Father of Romanticism” of French literature, his most famous work was Génie du christianisme (Genius of Christianity). He defended the Catholic faith, which was attacked during the French Revolution. And did I mention that he has a steak named after him?
