# Louis Alphonse Daniel Nicolas

> Louis Alphonse Daniel Nicolas (1864–1939)—better known by his pen name A. L. M. Nicolas—was a Persian-born French historian and scholar of Oriental studies who is best known today for his early work on Shaykhism and Bábism. Although primarily remembered for his academic contributions, Nicolas worked as an interpreter and diplomat with the French Consular Service in Persia for most of his life. Nicolas was among the first Western orientalist to devote substantial attention to the life and teachings of the revolutionary Persian religious figure known as the Báb, and his work continues to serve as an important source for the study of the early history of Shaykhism, Bábism and the Baháʼí Faith.
