Biography

Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian (6 March 1755 – 13 September 1794) was a French poet, novelist and fabulist. He is best known for writing the poem Plaisir d'amour as part of his novel, Célestine, which was later set to the music composed by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini. The song received popularity after composer Hector Berlioz arranged it for orchestra. Additionally, the song formed the basis of Elvis Presley's iconic hit Can't Help Falling in Love (1961). Throughout his lifetime, de Florian was well known for his fables, which have been reprinted numerous times, as well as his plays.
