Biography

Born as Marie-Marguerite de Maison-Forte, she took the name Brun in 1730 when she married the subdelegate of Besançon, who later became the King's Prosecutor to the financial office of Besançon.[2]

She regularly invited writers at her home. In 1753, she released Essay d'un dictionnaire franc-comtois (a dictionary of the Franc-Comtois language) with Mr. Petit-Benoist.[3]

In 1773, she earned an honourable mention in the Académie Française prize contest for her poem L'Amour maternel.[4] In 1774, she published another poem, L'Amour des François pour leur roi.[5]
