Pierre Marion de Salins

17.. – 17..

We know almost nothing about Pierre Marion de Salins, whom Pierre M. Conlon calls "Jean Pierre Marion" in his chronological bibliography (Le Siècle des Lumières, tome XXXI, Index des auteurs F - M, 1761-1789. Paris: Droz, 2008, p. 364). He may be Pierre Marion de Saint-Cyr, ennobled in 1730 by an office of secretary of the king, or one of his descendants (R. de Lurion, Nobiliaire de Franche-Comté. Besançon: 1890, p. 491)? In addition to L'Heureuse pêche, two other titles are attributed to him: Le Bouquet, ou l'heureux pêcheur performed in Liège in 1770 (the catalog of the Library of M. de Soleinne says that it is the same play, with a few added couplets) and Histoire véritable performed under the title, Le Mariage rompu et amour malheureux, followed by Une bâtardise injuste, tragi-comédie en prose, divisée en cinq actes (Besançon, 1764).
