Claude Carloman de Rulhière
Claude Carloman de Rulhière is a poet and French historian born the June 12th 1735 and dead the January 30th 1791.
By accompanying the baron de Breteuil with Saint-Pétersbourg, as embassy secretary, in 1760, it observed, to recall it later in all its details the revolution of 1762, the way by which Catherine II of Russia arrived at the throne while passing on the corpse of her husband. On its return, his/her friends pressed it to write its accounts, and it is more particularly, with the authorities of the Comtesse of Egmont which it yielded. However, the court of Russia fearing of the compromising revelations, made him ask to soften certain facts. He refused, but promised that the work appears only after the death of Catherine II. It is thanks to the reading of fragments of this work, that Rulhière, Historiographe with the Foreign affairs and secretary of the commands of Sir, count de Provence, entered to the French Academy in 1787.
Its curious resources came from the government of the fountain of Samaritaine in Paris. The report/ratio was raised enough by it, which contributes to explain its malevolent attitude towards the Révolution which removed its revenues to him. He died in the embarrassment in 1791.
