Add to basketDeux volumes - - - Louis Ernest Hamel, né le 2 juillet 1826 à Paris où il est mort le 6 janvier 1898, est un avocat, écrivain, historien et homme politique français. Il est surtout connu pour cette biographie de Maximilien de Robespierre. Son oeuvre abondante, qui comprend une Histoire de Saint-Just, une Histoire de Robespierre, Thermidor, un Précis de l'histoire de la Révolution, La République sous le Directoire et le Consulat, Le Premier Empire, La Restauration et Le Second Empire, lui vaut d'être nommé vice-président, président puis président honoraire de la Société des gens de lettres. Professant des idées républicaines et démocratiques et manifestant sa sympathie à l'égard des révolutionnaires, il se heurte à la censure du gouvernement de Napoléon III, qui fait saisir et mettre au pilon son Histoire de Saint-Just (1859) - rééditée à Bruxelles en 1860 - et menace de poursuites son Histoire de Robespierre (1865). Se lançant dans le journalisme, il écrit dans plusieurs journaux d'opposition: le Courrier du dimanche, le Siècle, L'Opinion nationale, la Presse libre, la Réforme ou la Revue contemporaine. Le 27 octobre 1876, il fonde avec Louis Blanc l'Homme libre, journal dont il devient directeur politique en 18773 et qui disparaît au bout de quelques mois. Candidat lors d'une élection sénatoriale partielle organisée en Seine-et-Oise le 10 janvier 1892 après le décès d'Hippolyte Maze, c'est Alphonse Chodron de Courcel qui l'emporte dès le premier tour de scrutin par 722 voix sur 1 325 votants. Après cet échec, il est élu le 9 octobre suivant en remplacement de Léon Journault, sénateur de Seine-et-Oise, avec 746 voix sur 1 347 suffrages exprimés. Inscrit aux groupes de l'Union républicaine et de la Gauche républicaine puis au groupe républicain radical, il intervient au Sénat dans des domaines très divers et participe aux travaux de nombreuses commissions. En particulier, il préside la commission artistique et littéraire. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hamel published two books about French institutions in 1848-1849.
