9e art - le podcast de la Cité Internationale de la Bande Dessinée et de l'Image d'Angoulême

Jean Dytar est un auteur à part, qui se réinvente à chaque album pour mieux interroger le fond et la forme du neuvième art, et la manière dont l'un nourrit l'autre. Dans son dernier livre, Les Sentiers d'Anahuac, il s'associe à l'historien Romain Bertrand. Ensemble, ils racontent comment les derniers Aztèques se sont battus pour coucher par écrit et préserver leurs traditions au cœur de la conquête menée par les conquistadors. Un récit passionnant qui questionne le rôle des sources dans l'écriture de l'histoire, mais aussi la circulation de l'information et la notion de « fake news ». Jean Dytar n'en est pas à son coup d'essai. Dans #J'accuse, il imaginait l'affaire Dreyfus à l'ère des réseaux sociaux, tandis que Florida revenait sur la désastreuse tentative d'implantation d'une colonie huguenote française en Floride. L'occasion de recevoir Jean Dytar dans ce podcast pour parler d'histoire, de bande dessinée, de représentations, d'appropriation culturelle, et bien sûr de création. L'auteur se prête également à notre questionnaire de Proust, version bande dessinée. Bonne écoute !Photo © Chloé Vollmer-LoHébergé par Audiomeans.

Hoy les presento una biografía de Anatole France (seudónimo de Jacques-Anatole-François Thibault, 1844-1924), novelista, poeta, periodista y crítico francés galardonado con el Premio Nobel de Literatura en 1921. France representa el epítome del hombre de letras francés clásico: elegante, irónico, escéptico y humanista, heredero de la tradición volteriana y diderotiana. Su obra combina refinamiento estilístico, simpatía humana profunda y un temperamento verdaderamente galo, como señaló el Comité Nobel. Su vida refleja las transiciones del Segundo Imperio a la Tercera República, el affaire Dreyfus, el anticlericalismo y el pesimismo postbélico; filosóficamente, encarna el escepticismo racionalista contra dogmas; psicológicamente, explora la ironía como defensa ante la absurdidad humana y la fragilidad del yo."Crónicas Lunares di Sun" es un podcast cultural presentado por Irving Sun, que abarca una variedad de temas, desde la literatura y análisis de libros hasta discusiones sobre actualidad y personajes históricos.

When it comes to the condition of Jews in Christian Europe, France was long known as the haven and heartland of integration and of toleration. And yet when things seemed to be going well for Jews in Western Europe and North America generally and France especially, the infamous fin de siècle Dreyfus affair brought to the surface some of the worst kinds of bigotry and animus--like contemporaneous Russian pogroms a premonition of the deadly looming revival of ethnic or religious divisions that had seemed a thing of the past. Our guest today, historian Maurice Samuels, author of many fine books on French history (Inventing the Israelite: Jewish Fiction in Nineteenth-Century France (2010), and The Right to Difference: French Universalism and the Jews (2016))and director of the Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism has written a crackerjack new book. Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair, (Yale 2024) has written a wonderful account of Dreyfus himself and how should we understand what that turmoil has ot tell us how Jews then (and perhaps today) coexisted with a mainstream secular Christian society either by way of assimilation or (not quite the same thing) by peaceful integration that preserved cultural distinctions. The discussion ranges widely, setting the scene in the prior centuries when Jews settled all over France, and then were accorded unusual rights by the universalist vision of the French Revolution. Maurie also explains why succeeding generations in France included the ascension not only of Leon Blum the Jewish socialist (and inventor of the weekend!) who improbably led anti-fascist France during in the 1930's--but also the other Jews who followed him as political leaders in France, right up to the present-day. From Hannah Arendt's Origins of Totalitarianism (1951) forward, Maurie shows, intellectuals have missed the significance of the way Dreyfus and his family integrated without assimilating. The conversation culminating in Maurie introducing John to the fascinating "Franco-French War" about what that coexistence should look like: assimilation which presumes the disappearance of a distinctive Jewish cultural identity, or integration which posits the peaceful coexistence of French citizens of various religions and cultures. Mentioned in the episode Karl Marx, "On the Jewish Question" (1844) George Eliot's (perhaps philosemitic) Daniel Deronda (1876) Why does Yale have a Hebrew motto, אורים ותומים (light and perfection)? The Haitian Revolution in its triumphs and tribulations is an analogy that helps explain jewish Emancipation--and also in some ways a tragic counterexample. The horrifying Great Replacement Theory we have heard so much about in America (eg in Charlottesville in 2017) began in France; Maurie has some thoughts about that. Michael Burns, Dreyfus: A Family Affair. America's racial "one drop" rule. Pierre Birnbaum, Leon Blum: Prime Minister, Socialist, Zionist (Yale, 2015) Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time.

Après l'affaire Dreyfus, la France apparaît comme l'Etat qui défend ses citoyens juifs. L'image d'exemplarité de la France après l'affaire Dreyfus s'accompagne aussi de profondes divisions au sein de la société française qui laissent leur empreinte et pour longtemps. Le 4 juin 1936, Léon Blum prend la tête du gouvernement. Il est socialiste, juif et les antisémites n'ont pas attendu son élection pour faire la démonstration de leur hostilité. Alors que les élections se préparent, il avait été victime d'une agression violente et spontanée dès le mois de février. Tal Brutman est historien, il est l'auteur de La France antijuive de 1936 (Éditions des Equateurs). Avec lui, on explore la centralité de la France dans le renouvellement de l'antisémitisme dans les années 1930.

An angry crowd hurled abuse and antisemitic slurs at Captain Alfred Dreyfus on 5th January, 1895, as he stood in the courtyard of the École Militaire in Paris to have his insignia torn away and his sword ceremonially snapped. He had been falsely convicted of treason. The case against him rested almost entirely on a memorandum - the bordereau - found torn up in a German embassy waste-paper basket. Investigators claimed the handwriting resembled Dreyfus's, and his trial was held behind closed doors, shielding the weakness of their case.  Dreyfus was sent to Devil's Island in French Guiana, where he was kept in near-total isolation, confined to a small hut, shackled at night, poorly fed, and forbidden meaningful human contact.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how evidence quietly emerged pointing to the real author of the bordereau: Major Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy; discover how public outrage finally broke through after Émile Zola's famous open letter, “J'Accuse…!”; and consider how smears about Dreyfus's sexuality were also used against him…  Further Reading: • ‘The Dreyfus affair: 100 years on' (BBC News, 2006): https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/5166904.stm • ‘The Dreyfus Affair: The Scandal And Anti-Semitism That Divided France' (HistoryExtra, 2022): https://www.historyextra.com/period/modern/dreyfus-affair-what-happened-france-scandal-anti-semitism/ • ‘J'ACCUSE - Trailer' (Gaumont, 2019): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iwqFo1B7nM #Scandal #France #Jewish #Racism #1800s Love the show?

This episode explores An Officer and a Spy (J'accuse in French), Roman Polanski's 2019 film about the Dreyfus Affair in France. The Dreyfus Affair is one of most significant events in late 19th/early 20th century, an event whose implications reverberated for decades in France and around the world. The Dreyfus Affair centered around the military trial of Captain Alfred Dreyfus on charges of treason. Wrongly convicted based on secret evidence and false information, Dreyfus's case would become a cause célèbres and synonymous with a miscarriage of justice. It also exposed and exacerbated tensions within French society while underscoring deep and pervasive levels of antisemitism.  Based on Robert Harris's 2013 novel of the same name, An Officer and a Spy focuses on the role of George Picquart, the military officer who helps uncover the truth behind Dreyfus's wrongful conviction, and Picquart's complex relationship with Dreyfus himself. Hewing closely to historical fact, the film highlights critical issues around law, truth, and justice, at the heart of the Dreyfus affair and why it remains so relevant today. Timestamps:0:00     Introduction 3:02      An overview of the Dreyfus case and key players 5:54.     Georges Picquart 13:14.    The struggle to overturn Dreyfus's conviction 17:54     Tensions over the Dreyfus affair and a lack of accountability 20:48    The “evidence” in the Dreyfus case 25:38     How the Dreyfus affair divided French society 30:16     Other films about the Dreyfus affair 33:54     The controversy around Roman Polanski as director 39:21      Legacies of the Dreyfus affair 45:13      The role of Colonel Henry Further reading: Begley, Louis, Why the Dreyfus Affair Matters (2009) Bredin, Jean‑Denis, The Affair: The Case of Alfred Dreyfus (1986) Doherty, Thomas, “From Méliès to Polanski: The Dreyfus Affair on Film,” Cineaste (2020) Harris, Robert, An Officer and a Spy (2013) Read, Piers Paul, The Dreyfus Affair: The Scandal That Tore France in Two (2013) Samuels, Maurice, Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair (2024) Zola, Émile, The Dreyfus Affair: J'Accuse and Other Writings (1998)  Law on Film is created and produced by Jonathan Hafetz.

On January 5, 1895, Captain Alfred Dreyfus's cries of innocence were drowned out by a mob shouting “Death to Judas!” In Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair (Yale UP, 2024), Maurice Samuels gives readers new insight into Dreyfus himself—the man at the center of the affair. He tells the story of Dreyfus's early life in Paris, his promising career as a French officer, the false accusation leading to his imprisonment on Devil's Island, the fight to prove his innocence that divided the French nation, and his life of quiet obscurity after World War I.Samuels's striking perspective is enriched by a newly available archive of more than three thousand documents and objects donated by the Dreyfus family. Unlike many historians, Samuels argues that Dreyfus was not an “assimilated” Jew. Rather, he epitomized a new model of Jewish identity made possible by the French Revolution, when France became the first European nation to grant Jews full legal equality. This book analyzes Dreyfus's complex relationship to Judaism and to antisemitism over the course of his life—a story that, as global antisemitism rises, echoes still. It also shows the profound effect of the Dreyfus Affair on the lives of Jews around the world. Maurice Samuels is the Betty Jane Anlyan Professor of French and director of the Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism at Yale University. He is the author most recently of The Betrayal of the Duchess: The Scandal That Unmade the Bourbon Monarchy and Made France Modern. He lives in Branford, CT. Geraldine Gudefin is a modern Jewish historian researching Jewish migrations, family life, and legal pluralism.

On January 5, 1895, Captain Alfred Dreyfus's cries of innocence were drowned out by a mob shouting “Death to Judas!” In Alfred Dreyfus: The Man at the Center of the Affair (Yale UP, 2024), Maurice Samuels gives readers new insight into Dreyfus himself—the man at the center of the affair. He tells the story of Dreyfus's early life in Paris, his promising career as a French officer, the false accusation leading to his imprisonment on Devil's Island, the fight to prove his innocence that divided the French nation, and his life of quiet obscurity after World War I.Samuels's striking perspective is enriched by a newly available archive of more than three thousand documents and objects donated by the Dreyfus family. Unlike many historians, Samuels argues that Dreyfus was not an “assimilated” Jew. Rather, he epitomized a new model of Jewish identity made possible by the French Revolution, when France became the first European nation to grant Jews full legal equality. This book analyzes Dreyfus's complex relationship to Judaism and to antisemitism over the course of his life—a story that, as global antisemitism rises, echoes still. It also shows the profound effect of the Dreyfus Affair on the lives of Jews around the world. Maurice Samuels is the Betty Jane Anlyan Professor of French and director of the Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism at Yale University. He is the author most recently of The Betrayal of the Duchess: The Scandal That Unmade the Bourbon Monarchy and Made France Modern. He lives in Branford, CT. Geraldine Gudefin is a modern Jewish historian researching Jewish migrations, family life, and legal pluralism. She is currently a Visiting Scholar at the Centre for Asian Legal Studies at the National University of Singapore, and is completing a book titled An Impossible Divorce? East European Jews and the Limits of Legal Pluralism in France, 1900-1939. Mentioned in the podcast: Léon Blum, Souvenirs sur l'Affaire (1935; Gallimard, 1981).

In this episode of the Join Us in France Travel Podcast, titled “Sarah Bernhardt with Elyse Rivin,” host Annie Sargent explores the fascinating life of France's most famous actress. Sarah Bernhardt wasn't just a performer — she was a global icon, an artist, and one of the most daring women of her time. Listen to this episode ad-free Born in Paris in 1844, Sarah rose from humble beginnings to dominate the French stage and the world's imagination. She acted at the Comédie-Française, starred in productions across Europe and America, and brought passion, emotion, and intensity to every role. Her talent was unmatched, her lifestyle eccentric, and her personality unforgettable. In this lively conversation, Elyse Rivin explains how Bernhardt became the first true international celebrity. They discuss her collaborations with Victor Hugo, her friendship with Alphonse Mucha, and her larger-than-life persona that helped define the Belle Époque in Paris. Annie and Elyse also explore where you can still trace Sarah Bernhardt's legacy today — at the Théâtre du Châtelet, the Petit Palais, or her tomb at Père Lachaise Cemetery. You'll hear how she inspired generations of artists and became a symbol of creativity, independence, and fearless ambition. In the magazine segment, Annie talks about tipping in France and the revival of bouillon restaurants, those classic Paris eateries known for affordable French comfort food and lively atmosphere.

Patrick Weil, historien et chercheur au CNRS, revient dans cet extrait sur un épisode clé de l'histoire de France : la séparation de l'Église et de l'État. Dans un contexte politique et géopolitique tendu aujourd'hui, où la place du religieux dans le débat public est plus que jamais questionnée, il m'a semblé essentiel de remettre en lumière ce moment charnière.Le terme de laicité est très utilisé mais pour servir des propos qui sont en décalage avec le sujet initial.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de la manière dont l'Église s'est mêlée des affaires politiques françaises à la fin du XIXe siècle, en soutenant des causes monarchistes ou en s'opposant ouvertement à la République, jusqu'à provoquer un tournant historique. J'ai questionné Patrick Weil sur le rôle décisif d'Aristide Briand et de Clémenceau, sur la crise des inventaires, mais aussi sur la stratégie politique mise en place pour préserver la paix civile tout en affirmant fermement la laïcité.Cet échange met en lumière une leçon essentielle : la loi de 1905 n'est pas née d'un affrontement brutal, mais d'une volonté de compromis éclairé, pour garantir la liberté de culte tout en protégeant l'espace public des pressions religieuses. Une réflexion toujours aussi brûlante aujourd'hui.5 citations marquantes« Aucun chandelier ne vaut une vie humaine. » – Clémenceau« Le pape voulait faire des martyrs, il ne fallait pas lui en donner l'occasion. »« La loi de 1905, c'est la liberté pour tous, sans domination d'aucun. »« L'Église appelait depuis ses chaires à voter contre les républicains. »« Comment le pape peut-il ordonner au président de la République où voyager ? »10 questions posées dans l'interviewComment l'Église a-t-elle réagi à la volonté de séparation d'avec l'État ?Pourquoi a-t-on voulu séparer la religion de l'État en France ?Quelle était la place de l'Église dans la République avant 1905 ?Quelles conséquences a eu le soutien de l'Église à la monarchie ?Quel rôle l'Église a-t-elle joué dans l'affaire Dreyfus ?Comment a été élaborée la loi de séparation de 1905 ?Quelle a été la réaction du Vatican à cette loi ?Pourquoi y a-t-il eu des violences lors des inventaires ?Quelle stratégie Aristide Briand et Clémenceau ont-ils choisie ?En quoi cette crise nous éclaire-t-elle sur notre rapport actuel à la laïcité ?Timestamps clés (optimisé YouTube)00:00 – Introduction de l'épisode par Grégory Pouy00:28 – Le mélange religion/État sous l'Ancien Régime et Napoléon02:18 – L'implication politique de l'Église jusqu'à l'affaire Dreyfus03:15 – Les prémices de la loi de 1905 avec Aristide Briand04:06 – L'incident diplomatique déclencheur avec le pape05:19 – Réaction de l'Église de France et opposition du Vatican06:14 – Briand et Clémenceau : une mise en œuvre politique risquée07:53 – L'hésitation face à la déchéance de nationalité des évêques08:48 – Offensives contre l'école publique et ripostes légales Suggestion d'épisode à écouter : #207 Comprendre la tension autour de la laïcité avec Patrick Weil (https://audmns.com/oavleuD)Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Écoutez la suite de l'histoire d'Emile Zola, homme et intellectuel engagé, racontée par l'historienne Virginie Girod. Dans les années 1880, Emile Zola durcit ses positions politiques tout comme sa plume à l'encontre du Second Empire avec son roman Germinal. Il se pose également en fervent dreyfusard. Le 13 janvier 1898, le journal "L'Aurore" publie le célèbre manifeste de Zola "J'accuse" dans lequel il prend la défense du capitaine Dreyfus accusé de trahison. Un texte qui lui vaudra un procès en diffamation et un exil à Londres … Emile Zola va constater qu'il n'est jamais bon de prendre position dans une affaire si controversée.

When it originally was released, it couldn't find an American distributor (and likewise was shunned by streaming services), a consequence of the MeToo moment meeting Polanski's criminal past—in 1978 he fled to Europe after being indicted for the rape of a 13 year-old girl in the United States. Polanski's past is particularly relevant for his film about the falsely accused Jewish officer in the French military, to whom, in publicity materials circulated when An Officer and a Spy came out in Europe in 2019, the director explicitly compared himself.Of course, we couldn't possibly have had on any other guest than John Ganz to help us understand the politics of the Dreyfus affair, both in 1895 and 2025, and what to make of Polanski's cinematic rendering of it. Topics include: Polanski's life and crimes; Hannah Arendt's treatment of the Dreyfus affair in The Origins of Totalitarianism; anti-semitism in 19th and early 20th century France; the way Polanski largely ignores the political convulsions caused by the Dreyfus affair, instead handling it more as a crime procedural, and why he might have done so; and more.Sources:John Ganz, "Reading, Watching," Unpopular Front, Aug 10, 2025— "Gramscians vs Sorelians," Unpopular Front, Jan 23, 2021— "The Third Republic and Today," Unpopular Front, Jan 27, 2021— "The Century of Rubbish," Unpopular Front, Feb 2, 2021— "From Republic to Reaction," Unpopular Front, Feb 4, 2021David Bell, "An Officer and a Spy," H-France, March 2021Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)

Today in Politics on Trial David tells the tale of the Dreyfus Affair that split France down the middle at the turn of the last century and revealed the grip of a whole host of conspiracy theories. Across a series of courts martial, libel trials, treason trials and parliamentary commissions, the story of a letter found in a wastebin turned into a saga about who really controlled the country. Was it the Jews? The Jesuits? The Freemasons? The army? The Germans? Or nobody at all? Why did Alfred Dreyfus find himself at the centre of it all? And what does all this madness tell us about the paranoid state of American politics today?

Everything Everywhere Daily History Podcast

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, France was shaken by a crisis that shook French society. An army officer was wrongly convicted in a sham trial. Then over the next several years, the French military doubled down, refusing to acknowledge what they had done, and punished everyone who attempted to prove them wrong, and even letting the guilty party go. The long-term results of the controversy changed France in ways that can still be felt today.
