Bruant, Aristide <\/span>(Louis, Armand, Aristide Bruand dit), chansonnier, cabaretier et \u00e9diteur fran\u00e7ais, n\u00e9 \u00e0 Courtenay (Loiret) le 6 mai 1851*, d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 Paris11 f\u00e9vrier 1925*.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Issu d\u2019un milieu ais\u00e9, Aristide Bruand suivit ses \u00e9tudes au lyc\u00e9e de Sens, qu\u2019il quitta apr\u00e8s divers revers de fortune de sa famille. Il vint alors \u00e0 Paris pour travailler chez un avou\u00e9. \u00c0 dix-sept ans il apprit le m\u00e9tier d\u2019ouvrier-joaillier rue Vieille-du-Temple. Lorsque la guerre \u00e9clata, il d\u00e9cida de retourner dans le Loiret et s\u2019engagea comme franc-tireur. D\u00e8s la d\u00e9faite, il revint \u00e0 Paris mais le travail \u00e9tant rare dans la capitale, il v\u00e9g\u00e9ta quelques temps, puis reprit son ancien m\u00e9tier chez diff\u00e9rents artisans joailliers avant d\u2019entrer \u00e0 la Compagnie des Chemins de fer du Nord en 1875. C\u2019est \u00e0 cette \u00e9poque qu\u2019il commen\u00e7a \u00e0 \u00e9crire des chansons de caf\u00e9-concert qu\u2019il se mit peu \u00e0 peu \u00e0 interpr\u00e9ter lui-m\u00eame. Pour ce faire, il prit le nom d\u2019Aristide Bruant et se produisit avec un certain succ\u00e8s sur les sc\u00e8nes de La Scala, du XIX<\/span>e<\/sup> Si\u00e8cle, de L\u2019\u00c9poque, de L\u2019Horloge, des Folies Saint-Martin… En habile gestionnaire, Bruant \u00e9dita lui-m\u00eame, d\u00e8s le d\u00e9but de sa carri\u00e8re, ses petits formats. Il monta vers 1883 \u00e0 Montmartre pour se produire au cabaret du Chat noir de Rodolphe Salis, situ\u00e9 84 boulevard Rochechouart. Il y resta jusqu\u2019en 1885, date du d\u00e9m\u00e9nagement du cabaret pour la rue de Laval. Bruant reprit la petite salle du boulevard Rochechouard et fonda son propre cabaret Le Mirliton. C\u2019est dans cet endroit qu\u2019il cr\u00e9a le personnage du Bruant \u00ab grande gueule \u00bb, qu\u2019il inventa son costume immortalis\u00e9 par les affiches de Toulouse-Lautrec, et qu\u2019il commen\u00e7a \u00e0 \u00e9crire des chansons de barri\u00e8res et de marlous qui firent sa r\u00e9putation. Parall\u00e8lement au cabaret Le Mirliton, il fonda un journal du m\u00eame nom, o\u00f9 furent publi\u00e9es nombre de ses chansons.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Antis\u00e9mite notoire, Bruant fonda une seconde publication, La Lanterne de Bruant, <\/i>dans laquelle il pu d\u00e9verser sa bile contre les juifs, dans des chansons aux textes on ne peut plus explicites : \u00ab Les Youtres \u00bb, \u00ab Le Pendu r\u00e9calcitrant \u00bb, \u00ab Youpinerie \u00bb, ou plus directement contre Dreyfus dans \u00ab Pour le Drapeau \u00bb : \u00ab Qu\u2019on les fusille, les Judas, \/\u2008Les bandits, les f\u00e9lons, les tra\u00eetres \/ Qui vendent le sol des anc\u00eatres \/\u2008Et le sang des petits soldats ; \/\u2008Qu\u2019on les fusille et qu\u2019on le crie \/ \u00c0 tous ceux qui donnent leur peau \/ Pour la d\u00e9fense du Drapeau, \/ Et pour l\u2019honneur de la Patrie \u00bb.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pendant l’Affaire, \u00c9mile Zola ne fut bien s\u00fbr pas \u00e9pargn\u00e9 avec : \u00ab L\u2019Auto-Moblot \u00bb, \u00ab La M\u00e9daille militaire \u00bb, \u00ab Lettre \u00e0 \u00c9mile Zola \u00bb, \u00ab Interview \u00bb…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span> \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Le 8 mai 1898, Aristide Bruant, soutenu par Fran\u00e7ois Copp\u00e9e<\/a>, se pr\u00e9senta aux \u00e9lections l\u00e9gislatives dans le quartier Belleville-Saint-Fargeau en tant que candidat \u00ab de protestation, nettement r\u00e9publicaine, socialiste et patriote \u00bb. \u00ab Tous les ennemis de la f\u00e9odalit\u00e9 capitaliste \u00bb, d\u00e9clarait-il, \u00ab et de la juiverie cosmopolite, v\u00e9ritable Syndicat de Trahison organis\u00e9 contre la France, voteront pour le po\u00e8te humanitaire, pour le glorieux chantre de Belleville \u00bb… Il ne r\u00e9unira que 504 voix.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Auteur prolixe, il signa une quinzaine de romans (Fleur de pav\u00e9, La Loupiote, Aux Bat\u2019d\u2019Af\u2019, Le Bagne des gosses, Nini Casque d\u2019or…<\/i>), pour lesquels il tint rarement la plume. Travaillaient \u00e0 son service, quelques n\u00e8gres : Michel Morphy, Arthur Bern\u00e8de… pour l\u2019\u00e9criture d\u2019une monumentale \u00ab saga \u00bb (2400 pages) intitul\u00e9e Les Bas fonds de Paris <\/i>; L\u00e9on de Bercy pour son dictionnaire, L’argot au xx<\/span>e<\/sup> si\u00e8cle<\/i>. Comment ne pas penser alors, qu\u2019il se fit \u00e9galement \u00ab aider \u00bb (par Jules Jouy ?) pour l\u2019\u00e9criture de ses chansons et monologues r\u00e9unis en quatre volumes : Dans la rue <\/i>et Sur la route <\/i>(volumes illustr\u00e9s par Steinlen, Borgex et Poulbot).<\/span>
\nIl fit jouer six pi\u00e8ces de th\u00e9\u00e2tre dont Les Types de Bruant, tableau populaire en un acte, <\/i>en 1902, au Concert de l\u2019\u00c9poque (que Bruant racheta, tout comme Le Lapin Agile de Montmartre). Il vendit le cabaret et le journal Le Mirliton, <\/i>ainsi que sa maison d\u2019\u00e9dition (\u00e0 Salabert), et se retira alors dans son ch\u00e2teau de Naintr\u00e9 o\u00f9 il v\u00e9cut en bon bourgeois.
\nContre de cons\u00e9quents cachets, il se produisit encore aux Ambassadeurs, \u00e0 L\u2019Eldorado et r\u00e9apparut sur la sc\u00e8ne du Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de L\u2019Empire en fin d\u2019ann\u00e9e 1924. Ce fut sa derni\u00e8re prestation ; Bruant mourut quelques semaines plus tard d\u2019une angine de poitrine, le 13 f\u00e9vrier 1925 \u00e0 Courtenay.<\/p>\n
