  Charles Victor Cherbuliez - LoveToKnow 1911
CHARLES VICTOR CHERBULIEZ (1829-1899), French novelist and miscellaneous writer, was born on the 19th of July 1829, at Geneva, where his father, Andre Cherbuliez (1795-1874), was a classical professor at the university.
He was descended from a family of Protestant refugees, and many years later Victor Cherbuliez resumed his French nationality, taking advantage of an act passed in the early days of the Revolution.
He did not possess the sombre power or the intensely analytical skill of some of his later contemporaries, but his books are distinguished by a freshness and honesty, fortified by cosmopolitan knowledge and lightened by unobtrusive humour, which fully account for their wide popularity in many countries besides his own.

 THE LAKE OF GENEVA
Switzerland itself gives many names, from the great Jean Jacques to the much-loved romancist Töpffer and his confrère Victor Cherbuliez--" this young conqueror, this young wizard of erudition and charm," as Henri Frédéric Amiel wrote of him more than forty years ago in the famous journal.
For a moment I was puzzled, for I remembered somewhat vaguely having read in the Confessions or elsewhere that Rousseau had recorded his happiest memories as connected with the Isle of Saint-Pierre.
Joël Cherbuliez, one of the heads of the great Paris and Geneva publishing firm of the Cherbuliez, was (possibly is a still surviving) brother of the famous novelist and art-writer Victor Cherbuliez, the most eminent modern Swiss.

 SparkNotes: Daisy Miller: Chapter 3
In a letter to Winterbourne asking him to come and visit her in Rome, Mrs.
Costello passes on some gossip about Daisy and, in the same paragraph, asks Winterbourne to bring her a copy of Victor Cherbuliez’s Paule Méré, a novel that bears a striking resemblance to Daisy Miller in several ways.
Like James’s novel, Paule Méré takes its title from the name of its heroine and concerns a spirited, independent-minded young woman whose unchaperoned excursions with a man excite the censure of European society and make her an object of scandal.
