Clement Clarke Moore

Clement Clarke Moore

**Clement Clarke Moore** (1779–1863) était un professeur américain de littérature orientale et grecque, ainsi que de théologie, à la General Theological Seminary de New York. Il est surtout célèbre pour avoir écrit *The Night Before Christmas* (initialement *A Visit from St. Nicholas*), un poème qui a profondément marqué l’imaginaire collectif autour de la figure de **Santa Claus**. Publié anonymement en 1823, ce texte est devenu un pilier des traditions de Noël aux États-Unis et dans le monde. Moore a écrit ce poème comme un cadeau pour ses six enfants, sans imaginer qu’il deviendrait un classique intemporel.

ebook cover of Twas the Night Before Christmas, by Clement Clarke Moore
Saga Egmont | 1 December 2021

First published anonymously in 1823, ''Twas The Night Before Christmas' has played a vital role in the tradition of Christmas. The jolly, red-cheeked, gift-bearing Santa Claus that we know (and love) today originates from Clement Clarke Moore's poem. He originally wrote it to share only with his own children on Christmas Eve. This jovial poem is wonderful for all fans of Santa Claus and the presents he delivers, young or old! Clement Clarke Moore (1779-1863) was an American writer, teacher, and poet. A highly religious man, he attended Columbia University and went on to write about a variety of subjects, including poetry, historical biographies, and translations from French. His most notable work was certainly 'A Visit From St Nicholas' which was originally written as a Christmas Eve gift to his children, and quickly gained fame, being known today as 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.
