465historical_info = flavor_fra.8.historical_info Cardinal de Richelieu, being a liberal patron of literature, created the l'Academie Française in 1636 in order to promote French language and literary pursuits. Although the scientific part of the academy never matched the literary one in fame, it did make a number of important scientific discoveries in the eighteenth century.
