Marcel Jacques Amand Romain Boulenger[1] (Paris, 9 September 1873 – Chantilly, Oise, 21 May 1932) was a French novelist and fencer who competed in fencing in the late 19th century and early 20th century.
Writings[]
As an author he is primarily known for his pastiches and his many faux "autobiographies" of imaginary persons. Two examples are Souvenirs du marquis de Floranges (1811-1834) (1923), and Le Duc de Morny, prince franc̦ais (1925).[2]
Olympics[]
He participated in Fencing at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris and won the bronze medal in the foil.[3] He was defeated by fellow French fencer Henri Masson in the semi-final. Twelve years later he participated in the art competition at the Summer Olympics in Stockholm.[4]
