Marguerite de Lubert

Marguerite de Lubert or Marie-Madeleine de Lubert (17 December 1702, Paris – 20 August 1785, Argentan) was a French woman of letters.

Life

Marie-Madeleine, sometimes called Marguerite de Lubert, whose life is little known, is the author of wonderful folk tales. She was the daughter of Louis de Lubert, president of the Third Chamber of the Inquiry of Parliament, amateur musician (violin) and founder on 10 January 1722 of one of the first amateur orchestras in Paris, the Academy of Mellophiletes.

She corresponded with Voltaire, and sent him a play of verses in 1732.[1]
