Historical and political preoccupations in "La nouvelle revue française" under the editorship of Jean Paulhan, 1925 to 1940
Full text linkWithin the range of literary reviews in Twentieth-Century
France, none has a more highly-esteemed reputation than la Nouvelle
Revue Francaise, originally founded in 1909 by Andre Gide and his
friends. Resuming in 1919 in a world profoundly shaken by the
upheaval and consequences of the First World War, the NRF,
at first under Jacques Riviere and then, from 1925 (for the rest
of the Inter-War period), under the editorial control of
Jean Paulhan, re-established itself at the forefront of literary
and critical creativity.
Informed by much of the unpublished correspondence of Paulhan,
this thesis shows that the NRF was not exclusively literary. An
examination of Paulhan's role, and of his editorial policy
(Chapter One) precedes the identification of a number of themes.
Already sensitive to topical questions, the NRF debated the role
and responsibilities of the intellectuals (Chapter Two), whose
attitudes tended to become more politicized as they grew more
aware of the deficiencies of the Third Republic (Chapter Three).
Their preoccupations reflected major themes, in particular
Franco-German relations (Chapter Four), Franco-Soviet relations
(Chapter Five), and the Jewish question (Chapter Six). Of course
the writers involved with the NRF continued to consider political
and international issues in the light of their own preferences
and prejudices.; yet their reactions and interpretations show that
they were ever-more conscious of the crucial, historical importance
of the period. Indeed its nature was such that History forced the
NRF, eventually, into adopting a partisan position which was
Antifascist, anti-Munich, and which even prefigured the Resistance
(Chapter Seven)
A history of the French in London: liberty, equality, opportunity
Full text linkThis book examines, for the first time, the history of the social, cultural, political and economic presence of the French in London, and explores the multiple ways in which this presence has contributed to the life of the city.
The capital has often provided a place of refuge, from the Huguenots in the 17th century, through the period of the French Revolution, to various exile communities during the 19th century, and on to the Free French in the Second World War. It also considers the generation of French citizens who settled in post-war London, and goes on to provide insights into the contemporary French presence by assessing the motives and lives of French people seeking new opportunities in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. It analyses the impact that the French have had historically, and continue to have, on London life in the arts, gastronomy, business, industry and education, manifest in diverse places and institutions from the religious to the political via the educational, to the commercial and creative industries
