  Alexandre Hardy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hardy's plays were written for the stage, not to be read; and it was in the interest of the company that they should not be printed and thus fall into the common stock.
Hardy wrote quickly, often adapting plays from French, foreign and classical sources (Ovid, Lucian, Plutarch, Xenophon, Quintus Curtius Rufus, Josephus, Miguel de Cervantes, Jorge de Montemayor, Boccaccio, François de Rosset).
Hardy's verse style is sometimes convoluted and awkward and he shows a certain love of rare or erudite words (both of these stylistic habits would be condemned by François de Malherbe in the same period); for these reasons later critics have called Hardy unreadable.

 The Theatre In France - Alexandre Hardy, Rotrou, And The French Stage Prior To The Adoption Of Classical Tragedy
Hardy is reckoned to have composed an average number of twenty plays a, year, for a period of thirty years, which brings the sum-total of his productions to six hundred.
In fine, Alexandre Hardy was brought by force of circumstances to serve as the transition between the art of the Middle Ages and the Classical School.
As a dramatic writer properly so-called, the role of Alexandre Hardy is by no means clear or well-defined, for, as a matter of fact, he did not compose a single tragedy that was of interest to the spectators, nor did he create one original tragic type.

 Hardy, Thomas - ENCYCLOPEDIA - The History Channel UK
Hardy could not afford to pursue a scholarly career as he wished and was apprenticed to John Hicks, a local church architect.
Hardy's novels are all set against the bleak and forbidding Dorset landscape (referred to as Wessex in the novels), whose physical harshness echoes that of an indifferent, if not malevolent, universe.
Hardy's vision reflects a world in which Victorian complacencies were dying but its moralism was not, and in which science had eliminated the comforting certainties of religion.

 Antoine de Montchrestien - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Together with Robert Garnier and Alexandre Hardy, Montchrestien is one of the founders of 17th century French drama.
Montchrestien's tragedies are "regular"; they are in five acts, in verse and use a chorus; battles and shocking events occur off stage and are reported by messengers.
He was fond of laments, the use of stichomythia and gnomic or sententious lines (often indicated in his published plays by the use of marginal quotation marks).

 SPLICEDwire | "Thomas In Love (Thomas est amoureux)" review (2001) Pierre-Paul Renders, Benoit Verhaert, Aylin Yay, ...
The other is Eva (Aylin Yay), a troubled exotic beauty whom Thomas fixates on while surfing for prostitutes -- sanctioned as a form of therapy by the insurance that pays his bills -- as an act of defiance toward his shrink.
Unaccustomed to repeated, long term interaction with any real woman other than his well-meaning mother (Micheline Hardy) who hassles him several times a week, Thomas badly mishandles his pursuit of both women, eventually becoming desperately smitten by Eva's visible melancholy.
His rushed declarations of love are met with a challenge to leave his apartment and rescue her from her life of prostitution (an "alternative sentence" she chose after being convicted of a crime).

 dOc DVD Review: Thomas in Love (Thomas est amoureux) (2000)
The look of the film adds to its surreal qualities, since we are actually watching a video screen throughout the entire film, complete with the distorted field of vision one expects from computer-top video cameras, and this detached presence really adds to the presentation.
The acting is excellent, from Thomas' annoying mother (Micheline Hardy), to the women he meets online.
It is difficult to convey how different this film is, with a feel unlike anything I have seen before, though the claustrophobic sense begins to grow after a while.

 influences on tully
From his grandfather, the colorful "Old Hughie," Tully had learned the value of a good story well told.
From his father, also Jim Tully, he had inherited a love of reading (everything from Gustave Flaubert and Thomas Hardy to Alexandre Dumas and Sir Walter Scott).
A nun at that Catholic orphanage where he spent six lonely childhood years had "taught him how to modulate his voice and speak words correctly" (encouraging him to read Dickens, Shakespeare, and Hugo).
