Jacques Lacarrière
Jacques Lacarrière (2 December 1925 - 17 September 2005) was a French writer. He studied moral philosophy, classical literature and Hindu philosophy and literature. Professionally, he was also a prominent critic, journalist, and essayist.
A passionate admirer of ancient Greece and its mythology, his essay L'été grec (Greek Summer) was an immense popular success, as were his following classical works Maria of Egypt and Dictionnaire amoureux de la Grèce (Dictionary for one who loves Greece). Of interest to ethnographers and ecologists is his Chemin faisant: Mille kilomètres à pied à travers la France.
Lacarrière's 1973 literary essay, Les Gnostiques, is also well-respected for its insights into the early Christian religious phenomenon of gnosticism.
For the whole of his work, he was awarded le Grand Prix de l'Académie française (the Great Prize of the French Academy.)
He died in Paris on 17 September 2005, following complications from orthopedic surgery.

Han har oversatt klassisk gresk litteratur også, og bla.a skrevet en bok som heter "Wisdom of ancient Greece".
