In 1891 he produced at the Théâtre Français ''Une Famille'', followed at the Vaudeville in 1894 by ''Le Prince d'Aurec'', a satire on the nobility, afterward renamed ''Les Descendants''.
He had a great success with ''Le Duel'' (Comédie-Française 1905), a powerful psychological study of the relations of two brothers, which was turned into a movie—''The Duel''—on which he was a co-writer. It was translated into English by Louis N. Parker and performed in New York in 1906 at the Hudson Theatre.
Lavedan was admitted to the Académie française in 1898. Provided by Wikipedia
