Claude-Henri, comte de Saint-Simon, was born into a French aristocratic family and received a scientific education. After the age of 40 he began to write extensively on political, industrial and religious topics. His Christian-influenced socialist views were not very influential during his lifetime, but but gained many adherents (known as Saint-Simonians) during the period 1828-1832 before the movement was banned by the French government as a dangerous sect. Today, Saint-Simon is considered the father of French socialism.
