Angèle Jacq

Angèle Jacq (born 1937, Landudal) is a former farmer who has become a bank employee. From 1995, she began writing historical novels located in Brittany.

In 2003, her literary work earned her the collar of the Order of the Ermine, bestowed by the Institut culturel de Bretagne. She also is a committed advocate of the Breton language, of which she is a speaker. She has taken a stand against the destruction of the collective memory of the Bretons and for a popular education detached from the State.
