NINE3T RENAULT PON SUPPLYING AID TO GERMANS Paris, Sept. 25.-tBUP)-News-I papers reported to-day that industrialist Louis Renault was arrested' ,Saturday and taken to the Palais ; de Justice on charges of "com- merce with the enemy," including having manufactured and sold to Germany between 1940 and 7.943 some 6,185,000,000 francs' worth of materials. Renault's counsel, Maurice Ribet, pleaded- that some time before the Franco-German armistice in June, 1940, Renault went to the United States to study construction of tanks. "It was there I learned of our defeat, and when I returned my 'factories already were in the hands of the Germans," Renault pleaded. "As War Minister Gen. Maxim E. Weygand had given industrialists orders to continue production I obeyed, believing I would thus spare numbers of French workers from forced labour in Germany and furthermore would prevent the enemy from laying hands on our materials." Held With Director French newspapers for some time have been demanding Ren- 'hult's arrest and Saturday morning it was erroneously reported that he had fled to Spain. Renault is in Fresnes prison out- side Paris, together with the director-general of his factories, De Per- recage, who faces similar charges. Others remanded on similar charges included bhe banker Worms, industrialist Gabriel Leroy- Ladurie, tooth charged with, the manufacture of submarines, and three leading directors of the French petroleum combine and the Bank of France and the Nether- lands.

Speaking Through the Body
DE LA DOULEUR À L’IVRESSE: VISIONS OF WAR AND RESISTANCE Corina Dueñas A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures (French). Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Dominique Fisher Reader: Martine Antle Reader: Hassan Melehy Reader: José M. Polo de Bernabé Reader: Donald Reid © 2007 Corina Dueñas ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT CORINA DUEÑAS: De la douleur à l’ivresse: Visions of War and Resistance (Under the direction of Dominique Fisher) This dissertation explores the notion of gendered resistance acts and writing through close readings of the personal narratives of three French women who experienced life in France during the Second World War. The works of Claire Chevrillon (Code Name Christiane Clouet: A Woman in the French Resistance), Marguerite Duras (La Douleur), and Lucie Aubrac (Ils partiront dans l’ivresse) challenge traditional definitions of resistance, as well as the notion that war, resistance and the writing of such can be systematically categorized according to the male/female dichotomy. These authors depict the day-to-day struggle of ordinary people caught in war, their daily resistance, and their ordinary as well as extraordinary heroism. In doing so, they debunk the stereotypes of war, resistance and heroism that are based on traditional military models of masculinity. Their narratives offer a more comprehensive view of wartime France than was previously depicted by Charles de Gaulle and post-war historians, thereby adding to the present debate of what constitutes history and historiography.

27 PERSONAL HISTORY Robert T. Odeman
PERSONAL HISTORY Franco Cesana Date of Birth: September 20, 1931 Place of Birth: Bologna, Italy Franco was born to a Jewish family living in the northern Italian city of Bologna. Even though a fascist leader, Benito Mussolini, came to power in Italy in 1922, Bologna’s Jews continued to live in safety. Like many Italian Jews, Franco’s family was well integrated in Italian society. Franco attended public elementary school. 1933–39: When Franco was seven, Mussolini enforced “racial” laws against the Jews: Franco was expelled from school and went instead to a Jewish school hastily organized in makeshift quarters in one of Bologna’s synagogues. Franco could not understand why he had to leave his friends just because he was Jewish. His father died in 1939, and he moved with his mother and older brother, Lelio, to Turin, where he began religious school. 1 ushmm.org 1940–44: Mussolini was overthrown in July 1943. Two months later, German forces occupied Italy and gained control of the north, the part where Franco’s family and most of Italy’s Jews lived. The Italians had been protecting the Jews, but now Germany controlled Italy. The Cesana family went into hiding in the mountains. To evade the Germans, they moved from hut to hut. Lelio joined the Justice and Liberty partisan group. Though only 12, Franco joined as well, proud that so many Jews were fighting in the Italian resistance. Franco was shot by Germans while on a scouting mission in the mountains. His body was returned to his mother on his 13th birthday.

1 Paula Kaufmann and Berrie Asscher
PAULA KAUFMANN AND BERRIE ASSCHER: TWO STORIES OF YOUNG JEWISH RESCUERS WHO OPERATED IN THE DUTCH WESTERWEEL UNDERGROUND GROUP WHICH INCLUDED JEWS AND NON-JEWS CHANA ARNON JERUSALEM JRJ COMMITTEE Paula Kaufman obtained a position as secretary to the director of the construction department of the Gestapo in Paris, January, ‘44. Paula, born in Drabowa, Poland, in 1920, had lived in Vienna with her parents from infancy; German was her language. After the Anschluss she fled and moved to the Netherlands where she was employed in different cities. When the war broke out, she moved from Amsterdam to Haarlem, living with a Dutch family, the Gerritsens. Frans Gerritsen and his wife, Hanny, active in the underground and part of the Westerweel Group, were parents to twins born in August, 1942, and could use a nanny. At the Gerritsen home she participated in the forging of documents together with Frans who was an expert. Sometime during 1944 Paula was able to escape to Paris where she knew of an apartment used by the Dutch resistance group who had escaped earlier. A few days after she arrived, part of the group was arrested, the equipment used by them for espionage being confiscated by the SD. "At the beginning of 1943, the Armee Juive (one of the prominent French Jewish Resistance groups, armed. CA) had been mapping out an escape route to Spain mainly intended for young people who wanted to join the Allied Forces or reach Palestine. Passage to the border zone, in the meantime, had been banned by the Germans for a breadth of approximately100KM.

They formed the empirical basis for our report, Prisons and Terrorism: Extremist Offender Management in 10 European Countries (London: ICSR, 2020), which was published in July 2020 and is available from www.icsr.info. Our aim was to identify trade-offs and dilemmas but also principles and best practices that may help governments and policymakers spot new ideas and avoid costly and counterproductive mistakes. In doing so, we commissioned local experts to write papers on the situation in their respective countries. To make sure that findings from the different case studies could be compared, each author was asked to address the same topics and questions (Appendix I), drawing on government statistics, reports, interviews with various stakeholders, and their own, previously published research.

DARK YEARS, DARK FILMS, LONG SHADOWS: THE OCCUPATION, NOIR, AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN FRENCH FILM AND CRITICISM A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Zachary Kendell Gooch January 2014 © 2014 Zachary Kendell Gooch DARK YEARS, DARK FILMS, LONG SHADOWS: THE OCCUPATION, NOIR, AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN FRENCH FILM AND CRITICISM Zachary Kendell Gooch, Ph.D. Cornell University 2014 Although the term arises in French film criticism, “noir” has long been associated with American cinema and a certain, recognizable type of visual and thematic style. Through a return to the French critics of the late 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s this dissertation defamiliarizes and redefines noir’s value to film and French studies by demonstrating its negatively constitutive role in the negotiation of French national identity and the central place of the Occupation in any discussion of French noir. By locating noir within criticism and performing close readings of the critical archive, which includes figures as diverse as Georges Sadoul and André Bazin, Lucien Rebatet and François Truffaut, I argue that noir critical discourse is defined by a tension between the category’s ever-changing value and the efforts of those who deploy it to fix the meaning of the nation before, during, and after the Occupation through careful omissions of the historical, collective memory. Because noir is central to debates on how the nation should and, more precisely, should not be represented, I also resist conventional, generic approaches to advance that individual films noirs are secondary to noir critical discourse.

This thesis addresses a gap in the scholarly literature concerning both the structure of the movement and the contribution of women to the communist resistance. While women are now included in the majority of general histories, the historiography has tended to understate the participation of female resisters. Women, however, were extensively involved as members of the communist resistance movement. This thesis allows us to gain an understanding of women as key contributors to the functioning of resistance networks. This study argues that women were integral to the success of the communist resistance movement. Detailed investigation of female communist resisters enables us to develop a deeper understanding of the emergence of resistance and how it was sustained.
