Goncourt is a station of the Paris Métro, named after the Rue des Goncourt. The street was named after the writer Edmond de Goncourt (1822-1896), of the naturalist school, and his brother Jules (1830-1870), who collaborated on novels such as, Madame Gervaisais and Germinie Lacerteux. Edmond de Goncourt then wrote by himself works such as, La fille Élisa and Hokusai. Under his will, he created the Académie Goncourt which has awarded since 1903 the Prix Goncourt, the most prestigious prize in French language literature, given to the author of "the best imaginary prose work of the year".
