He was one of the illustrators of the books written by Émile Driant under the pen name of "Danrit".{{sfn|Roest|Feij|2008|p=29}} He also published political cartoons and illustrated books by Théodore Cahu and others. CartoonsPaul de Sémant became an editor of La Bombe magazine, which supported General Boulanger to the consternation of the government, who feared Boulanger was planning a coup-d'etat.{{sfn|Goldstein|1989|p=240}} Some of Sémant's works were published in the magazine. On 7 April 1889 the Bombe published his cartoon Trop dure, trop haute, supporting Boulanger.{{sfn|Pocard|Davy|Chauffier|1891|p=308}} On 2 June 1889 the Bombe published his L'Arme au pied in which he commented on the close relationship between prime minister Francesco Crispi of Italy and the Emperor of Germany.{{sfn|Grand-Carteret|1891|p=304}} On 14 July 1889 his cartoon La Prise de la Bastille again depicted Boulanger in heroic posture.{{sfn|Pocard|Davy|Chauffier|1891|p=309}} On 28 July 1889 La Bombe published an open letter from Paul de Sémant complaining of illegal harassment of the journal's vendors and seizures of issues by police.{{sfn|Goldstein|1989|p=240}} The 15 September 1889 issue of the Bombe was seized for a cartoon Vive Boulanger. Later that month, his cartoon A bas Ferry, vive Boulanger caused the magazine to again be seized because of injuries to the ministers Constans and Yves Guyot.{{sfn|Pocard|Davy|Chauffier|1891|p=315}} NovelsPaul de Sémant began the series of African adventures of his hero "Gaëtan Faradel" with one that described the Trans-continental Nord-Sud-Africain, a railway project that had been advocated by the press.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=340}} The stories alternate between the views of Africa as a place where wealth can be gained through colonial exploitation and the more romantic "hidden treasure" theme in the tradition of The Count of Monte Cristo or Treasure Island.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=141}} Faradel and his friends destroy a troop of elephants and gain a great haul of ivory, they find a gold mine, and so on. They take these treasures with no thought of rights of the Africans to whom the resources belong.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=141}} His Les merveilleuses aventures de Dache, perruquier des zouaves is written for a younger audience than Faradel, but is also largely set in Africa, where the hero has series of adventures that are sometimes comical, sometime morally edifying.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=161}} The hero, Dache, is orphaned at the age of one and adopted by a regiment of Zouaves who have saved his life. His adventures include fighting the Russians in the Crimea, the Austrians at the battle of Magenta and the Prussian in 1870. However, most of the book concerns the colonial campaigns in North Africa, then closer to the equator in 1856-57, where he becomes ruler of an African tribe.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=162}} The book presents the nationalities whom Dache meets - German, English or African - in standard stereotypes of his day. The Africans in particular are treated almost as cartoon characters.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=162}} The daily life of an African village is described in idyllic terms. The people simply gather the fruits and crops that grow wild or with little cultivation, raise cattle, sheep and pigs, and supplement their diet by hunting gazelles and antelopes. Ivory lets them purchase whatever else they need.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=163}} Paul de Sémant considered that Africa had no indigenous culture, and therefore it was right for France to forcibly impose civilization and moral values.{{sfn|Seillan|2006|p=293}} BibliographyText and illustrations by Paul de Sémant{{refbegin}}
