Dominique Aubier, née Marie-Louise Labiste, (7 May 1922 – 2 December 2014) was a French author.

Life

[edit]

Born in Cuers, France, she studied in Nizza and served in the French Resistance in 1944. Aubier lived in Spain for 30 years before returning to France.

Career

[edit]

Aubier wrote forty books over a fifty-year span, including six novels and two books about Spanish bullfighting, Fiesta in Sevilla[1] and Fiesta in Pamplona.[2] Many of her books had esoteric themes, including a book about Indian Cinema and its symbolism, and several controversial books about Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quixote alleged cabalistic encoding.[3] Dismissed by Cervantes scholars, Jean Canavaggio (emeritus Professor of Spanish Literature at the University of Paris X-Nanterre, Goncourt Price of the biography for his book "Cervantès"),[4] one of the greatest experts on Cervantes,[5] considered it a hoax.[6]
