Georges Grassal de Choffat or Hugues Rebell (27 October 1867 in Nantes – 6 March 1905 in Paris) was a French author. He wrote against Christianity and professed paganism while remaining a Catholic. An exponent of Friedrich Nietzsche, he was associated with the right-wing nationalist group Шаблон:Lang.[1]
Rebell wrote a number of pornographic works under the group pseudonym "Jean de Villiot",[2] a prolific contributor to early 20th century French spanking literature, published by Charles Carrington.[3][4]
Rebell is often dismissed as a failed author of pornography, remembered for only one title, Шаблон:Lang (1902),[5] which won the Prix Nocturne in 1966. He was also a poet, whose Шаблон:Lang, dedicated to his friend René Boylesve, inspired André Gide in Шаблон:Lang. He was also known as a polemicist of royalty because of his Шаблон:Lang (1894), which treated the three aristocracies based on family name, money, and talent.
He wrote articles for the journals La Cocarde and Le Soleil, which were included in a collection of writings published in 1994 under the title De mon balcon.[6] He wrote a defence of Oscar Wilde in the August issue of the literary magazine Mercure de France in 1895.
