Truth and Untruth Louis-Ferdinand Céline's Voyage Au Bout De La Nuit and the Memory of the Great War 1914-1918 Truth and Untruth Louis-Ferdinand Céline’s Voyage au bout de la nuit and the Memory of the Great War 1914-1918 Thomas Michael Patrick Quinn School of Applied Language and Intercultural Studies Thesis submitted to Dublin City University in candidacy for the degree of PhD Supervisors Professor Leslie Davis, School of Applied Language and Intercultural Studies, Dublin City University and Dr David Denby, School of Applied Language and Intercultural Studies, Dublin City University June 2002 DECLARATION I hereby certify that this material, which I now submit for assessment on the programme of study leading to the award of PhD is entirely my own work and has not been taken from the work of others save and to the extent that such work has been cited and acknowledged withm the text of my own work Signed ID No 98970232 Candidate Date 25 June 2002 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Research of this scale and duration could not be undertaken without a substantial level of financial support. I therefore wish to begin by acknowledging the financial assistance of two research bodies whose support for this thesis was an indispensable part of bringing it to a successful conclusion, in this respect I would like, first of all, to acknowledge the Irish Research Council for the Humanities and Social Sciences who awarded me a generous three-year Government of Ireland Scholarship. In addition, the Council also awarded me a Travel Bursary enabling me to travel to Paris for one month in November 1999.1 also wish to acknowledge and thank the Research Committee at Dublin City University (DCU) who provided me with a three-year Research Bursary. This Bursary, awarded at the very outset of my research, allowed me to embark on and maintain my research activity and was absolutely critical in enabling me to make a firm commitment to my research project. At this point, I would also like to thank the members of the Research Committee of the School of Applied Languages and Intercultural Studies (SALIS) at DCU for their commitment, support and encouragement throughout my research. In the course of my research I have been in contact with many experts not just in the field of Céline studies but also in relation to the Great War and the memory of the Great War. In the field of Céline studies, my thanks go to François Gibault, Frédéric Vitoux and Ian Noble, all of whom agreed to be interviewed by me, and all of whom showed me great hospitality, as well as warm interest in my research project. In relation to the Great War, I have corresponded with historians Niall Ferguson, John Home, Richard Holmes and Jay Winter, all of whom responded freely to my questions. Indeed, John Home of Trinity College Dublin, took the time to meet with me twice to discuss my research. The historian to whom I am most indebted, however, is Jean Bastier. author of an important study on Céline in the Great War, and who answered many questions both about Céline and about the Great War. My thanks to him and to all. In reliilion tu trauma, my reading was complemented by the commentary and insights of Lieutenant Colonel Colman Goggin, Head Psychiatrist with the Irish Army, now 4 retired, and of trauma specialist Yvonne McKeon, both of whom I met on several occasions My thanks to them both I visited many libraries in the course of my research The Manuscript Department of the Bibhotheque nationale de France (BnF) provided me with access to the Voyage au bout de la nuit manuscript acquired in May 2001 At the BnF’s Tolbiac site, I was also able to consult many audio-visual documents on both Celine and the Great War in the keeping of the BnF and of the Institut national de Vaudio-visuel (INA) In addition, the Institut mémoires de Vedition contemporaine (IMEC) allowed me access to their significant Céline collection The Service historique de I ’armee de terre (SHAT) at Vincennes, Pans, kindly allowed me to examine the Historique of Celine’s regiment during the Great War as well as the hand-written daily record of the regiment’s progress The staff of SHAT always responded courteously and generously to my correspondence and requests for information Finally, the Cinematheque Française was helpful in arranging for a private viewing of Leon Poirier’s film Verdun at their premises in the Fort de St -Cyr My thanks to the staff and management of all these establishments I also wish to thank the staff and management of DCU library on whom I greatly depended In particular, I wish to thank Mags Lehane of Inter-Library Loans at DCU who was patient and helpful to a fault It is, indeed, impossible to acknowledge all who have contributed in one way or another over a period of three years to the development of my research Many friends listened and encouraged with both interest and patience not just to accounts of my research but to the account of my experience of doing research, sometimes difficult and painful Two persons, however, deserve special acknowledgement, Dr Niamh Chapelle of SALIS, who listened, encouraged, supported and understood, and Alva Moloney, whose enthusiasm for endless conversations about Celine greatly sustained this writer on his own journey to the end of the night The importance of support and guidance to anyone embarking on a major thesis cannot be overstated In this respect, the figure of my supervisor and fellow Celinian, Professor Leslie Davis of Dublin City University looms large His warmth, kindness 5 and the unfailing reassurance of his personal presence will not need emphasis for any who know him This acknowledgement of his role in my research is accompanied by my warmest thanks and appreciation I also wish to thank Dr David Denby, Senior Lecturer m French at DCU who, following Professor Davis’s resignation due to illness, took over supervision of the thesis in its final stages and who guided it safely to harbour Many thanks Last but not least, I wish to acknowledge the unfailing presence and support on every level of my wife, Joan Moore Without whom nothing would be possible or even imaginable 6 This thesis is dedicated to Professor Leslie Davis who knows the secret of turning base metal into gold i TABLE OF CONTENTS Page 14 Introduction The Great War and Voyage au bout de la nuit -

Introduction “[I]n the arrogance of our conviction that we would have done better than he did in a single case, we exempt ourselves from any duty to pay attention to the many cases where he shows himself to be better than us.” 1 — Murray Kempton, New York Newsday , November 27, 1983 EDWARD MOORE KENNEDY AND I share the same first name; we also share the somewhat uncommon nickname of Ted for Edward. And for the first two decades of my life, that was roughly the extent of my knowledge about the man who has been my state’s senior senator for my entire life, all but seven years of my mother’s life, and more than half of my grandmother’s life. Kennedy has been a member of the Senate for so long (45 of his 75 years) that it seems he could have been born in the cloakroom, though he was actually born in Boston on February 22, 1932, the youngest child of Joseph Patrick and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy.

  • Pop Culture Politics Student Life and the Like Summer 2009
    DECONSTRUCTIONPop Culture Politics Student Life and the like Summer 2009 A Few Parting Words... Our last issue of Deconstruction. Ever. As freshmen four years ago, we never thought this day would arrive. The end comes with a melancholic jumble of both sadness and relief. As Publicity Director and Cultural Editor (as well as Writ- ers/ Copy Editors/ Artists/ Readers/ Supporters/ Overall DEcon Lovers) it is hard to believe that we will never again be a part of such an eclectic publication with a staff just as eclectic and wonderful. While the poignancy of the final is- sue is overwhelming, we are relieved that we will never again have to scramble to pull articles together, pull a cover out of thin air or have to see the inside of the Morris Library Mac Lab… Relieved that we are able to graduate on May 30th and leave the future of DEcon in capable hands. This final issue of DEcon almost didn’t happen. The overwhelming stress of classes, exams, jobs etc. really gripped us all, however, we knew that ending our time here at UD without a final issue just wasn’t right. Thanks to a select few, we were able to pull this compilation together and present it to you. We want to thank you all for being loyal readers and supporters these past couple of years and hope that you will continue to read, contribute and enjoy Deconstruction after we are gone. Consider this issue as toast to the future, though foggy and unpredictable it may seem. As daunting as it sounds, we all will be moving on, leaving the Blue Hen nest Delaware has so kindly provided for us and bravely taking flight into the real world.

  • The American Legion – Department of Oregon
    Department of Oregon History of 1921 The Department of Oregon The American Legion History of 1921 The 100th Anniversary of The American Legion 1919-2019 The Department of Oregon PO Box 1730 Wilsonville, OR. 97070-1730 503.685.5006 www.orlegion.org This document was produced on behalf of the Department’s 17,000 members, the wartime veterans of the 20th and 21st centuries, who can be found in 117 posts in communities across our great state. Compiled and edited by Eugene G. Hellickson Department Commander 2017 – 2018 Version 1921.1.1 2 THE RED POPPY FOR MEMORIAL DAY “Poppies in the wheat fields and the pleasant hills of France Reddening in the summer breeze that bid them not and dance.” So sang the soldier poet of the A.E.F.F. that blazing summer of 1918 when an unleashed American army was writing the Oureq and Vesle into our history. He sang of the poppies because it was through machinegun raked fields of them that the doughboys were charging; he sang of them because the doughboys were wearing them in their helmets as they roared ahead. Not all of us were along the Oureq and the Vesle that summer, taking German strong points with poppies in our helments, but every American can wear his poppy this Memorial Day, when the poppy, as the offical memorial flower of the American Legion, will blossom in hundreds of thousands of loyal lapels. The American who wears the poppy on Memorial Day is showing that he has not forgotten; for he wears it to remember – “Poppies in the wheat fields; how still beside them lie Scattered forms that stir not when the star shells burst on high; Bently bending o’er them beneath the moon’s soft glance “Poppies in the Wheat fields; how still ransomed hills of France.” The Red Poppy is the Offical Memorial Flower.
