Alfred of Delays (1880-1925), writer, economist and Journaliste French. Wire of the sociologist Gabriel Delays.

It is especially known for the publication of two " enquêtes" with Henri Massis under the pseudonym of Agathon: the spirit of the news Sorbonne (1911) and young people of today (1913). These two works have the originality to resort to the method of the Sondage to try to establish the causes of the decline of the Culture Classique which the authors note. It is also accordingly Réactionnaire which they wonder about the young person Génération of pre-war period when, according to Agathon, a decline of the attachment to the Tradition S and the Religion is observed.

These investigations assert patronage of Charles Maurras and of the French Action and fall under the climate of the tensions succeeding the Affaire Dreyfus which sees being born a rise from the Nationalisme S and a dissatisfaction vis-a-vis measurements of Laïcisation of the State.
