While popular music and the mass media in France are firmly established areas of enquiry, there have been relatively few academic studies of the youth and popular music press. This book focuses on Salut les copains (Hi Buddies/Mates) (1962-76), which achieved a circulation of a million copies within its first year, at its peak sold around twice as many magazines as its nearest competitors, and has now become synonymous with the development of youth culture in 1960s France. In the few existing accounts of Salut les copains cultural commentators have tended to view the magazine as a neutral, apolitical vehicle for French yé-yé pop stars. However, this full-length study reveals how written texts in Salut les copains (editorial, letters and advertising) both supported and challenged dominant ideologies concerning culture, the nation, youth and gender during the turbulent 1960s and 1970s.
As Hitler's victorious armies approached Paris, panic gripped the city and the roads heading south filled with millions of French citizens, fleeing for their lives, with scant supplies and often no destination in mind. All hoped, as famed author Simone de Beauvoir wrote in her diary, "not to be taken like a rat in Occupied Paris."

Biografie van de Franse staatsman (1841-1929)
Die Herz-Jesu-Verehrung besaß im Ersten Weltkrieg ein hohes Mobilisierungspotential. In Deutschland und in Frankreich fanden 1915 große Feiern statt, welche diesen transnationalen Kult mit nationalen Siegesvorstellungen verknüpften. Claudia Schlagers kulturhistorische Studie analysiert die Verbindungen zwischen Kriegserfahrung und Religion sowie den Wandel der Herz-Jesu-Verehrung zum Christkönigskult nach 1918. Mit ihrem Fokus auf den Todeserfahrungen des Ersten Weltkriegs bietet sie einen Schlüssel zum Verständnis der Konjunkturen und Krisen von Religion als Sinnstiftungsagentur.
Cet ouvrage, recueil des actes du colloque qui s’est tenu à St-Remy-la-Calonne (Meuse) le 16 mai 2014, fait suite à celui précédemment intitulé Les images de la Grande Guerre à l’épreuve du temps, consacré à l’iconographie de la Première Guerre mondiale sous diverses formes (filmiques, photographiques, de presse, picturales, archéologiques…). Ce nouvel opus a pour objectif d’examiner les lignes de front, visages marqués de la Première Guerre mondiale, des meurtrissures des corps à la trace des combats, tout ce qui fait mémoire par-delà les strates du temps et les abîmes de l’oubli. Entre patrimonialisation et mise en valeur, cent ans après, la ligne de front, paysage insolite, continue de nous interpeler.
