Notes to Chapter 1: The Resistance in the Panthéon

1. The events are described in Rousso (1991), 82ff, and discussed in context in Chapter 12 below. 2. The full text of the speech is in Laure Moulin (1969), 9–16. A recording by French radio is available on audiotape. 3. Peyrefitte (1997) II, 566. 4. For full details see below, Chapters 9–12. 5. The only accounts in English are Piquet-Wicks (1957), describing his own contact with Moulin, and Foot (1978), giving a good account of his role and the atmosphere of the time. The recent book by Marnham (2000) contains much unsubstantiated speculation, most of it reverting to the discredited ‘crypto-Communist’ view. 6. The history of this tradition is best described in Pilbeam (1995), or almost any of the books of Maurice Agulhon. There is a summary of some issues on republican continuity in my 1994 article. 7. This speculation is systematically collected in Péan (1998), and reproduced in Marnham (2000). 8. These issues are covered below in Chapter 12. 9. See Chapter 5 below. 10. See Chapter 7 below. 11. Cordier (1983), 11.

Notes to Chapter 2: A Republican Upbringing, 1899–1919

1. Speech of 16 October 1932 in Finistère, in FLM 17864, 94; speech at Chartres of 3 April 1939, in Jean Moulin (1947), 120. The statement to the British is in PRO FO/898/198 – ‘Interview with M Moulins [sic] Most Secret 4.11.41’. 2. A detailed account of Moulin’s ancestry and early life is in CI, 307–425, which can be supplemented from the dissertation of Pascal Simon (1987), and Laure Moulin (1969) (hereafter LM). 3. LM, 164; Simon (1987), 29f. 4. Bernstein (1982) I, 38; Headings (1949), 82. 5. CI, 341–2. 6.

1. Jackson (1998 article), 222. 2. For a full description see Soucy (1995). 3. See Bernstein (1982), 94f; Nordmann (1974), 236f; and du Réau (1993), 68f. 4. Quoted in Nordmann (1974), 240. 5. CI, 448; on this and more generally on the events described. 6. Campbell (1958), 90–6. 7. Simon (dissertation, 1987), 35. 8. There is a reasonable English account in Chapman (1955) as well as some good points in Zeldin (1973), 530–4 and 601–4. For a fuller version see Siwek- Pouydesseau (1969), and for biographies, Bargeton (1994). 9. Quoted in CI, 391–2. 10. LM, 81. 11. Ibid., 90. 12.

His account is summarised in Marnham (2000). Antoinette Sachs (later known as Sasse) recently deposited papers in the Musée Jean Moulin in . 18. Milliat (article, 1977). 19. LM, 127. Many of his speeches are kept at FLM 17864, 1–76. Early speeches are scribbled on the backs of office memos and leaflets, but increasingly they are carefully constructed, eventually typed and even printed. 20. The details are set out in Siân Reynolds (1996), 18f, with references to the extensive literature. 21. FLM 17864, 36–7, 40, 158. CI, 510–11. (Cordier gives a different date for the ‘mothers’ speech, citing another source.) 22. Leger (1934), 127–8; and letter of 2 April 1928 to Antonin Moulin quoted in CI, 811. 23. Letter from Pierre Cot to Henri Michel of 23 October 1963, in AJ 72/233. 24. The fullest source is the anonymous Hommage à Pierre Cot (1979), and the Briand statement is quoted there (p. 30) by Phillip Noel Baker. Péan (1998), 31f. adds more, based on a then uncompleted thèse d’état by Sabine Jansen Notes 215

entitled Pierre Cot, un itinéraire politique (1895–1977). Mlle Jansen, who tells me that she does not agree with Péan’s argument of a later break between Cot and Moulin, has published some relevant articles, detailed in the bibliography. 25. The statements are quoted from Nordmann (1974), 230; Ingram (1991), 38–9; and Cot (1944), 27. 26. Calef (1980), 28. 27. Ibid., 30; and Ford (1993), 164–9. 28. CI, 831, 577. 29. Speech in Géroudet (1990), 537–8. 30. Given at Châteaulin on 11 November 1927: the quoted passage is in FLM 17864, 78. Moulin is said to have joined a ‘Friends of Aristide Briand’ organisation. 31. FLM 17864, 172, has a press cutting with this headline. 32. On this see below, p. 45. 33. For an interesting account, see Binion (1960), 310f. 34. The speech is in FLM 17864, 97, quoted CI, 826–7, 564–5. 35. This is explained in Paul-Boncour (1945) II, 267, and was an early indication of a movement on the left away from pacifist attitudes, soon followed by Moulin and others. 36. Ibid., 272; Larmour (1964), 125; Jackson (1985), 65–6; Binion (1960). 37. CI, 575. 38. Ibid., 830. 39. Péan (1998), 44f; 191f speculates on what might have happened. 40. These details can be traced in the Documents Diplomatiques Français 1932–1939, 1st Series, vol. IV, 308, 569–72; and Cot (1944) I, 66. For an account of the trip by a sympathetic journalist, see Tabouis (1942), 175–7. 41. Calef (1980), 43–4; Louis Joxe (1981), 197. 42. For an interesting account of some of these issues see Siân Reynolds (1996), 65ff. 43. This is best outlined in Chapman (1991), 31–5. See also Pascal Vennesson, ‘Institutions and Airpower: The Making of the French Air Force’, in John Gooch (1995).

Notes to Chapter 4: Fascism and Anti-Fascism, 1934–6

1. The main accounts used here are Bernstein (1975) and Le Clère (1967), both drawing heavily on the National Assembly Committee of Enquiry later in the year. There was also a post-war enquiry covering the period from 1933 to 1945. Good accounts in English, though dated, remain the articles by Warner (1958) and Beloff (article, 1950). There is more in Bankwitz (1967), 181–96, and du Réau (1993), 116–35. 2. CI, 751–4; Paul-Boncour (1945) II, 307; du Réau (1993), 129. 3. This account was given to Daladier by de La Roque ten years later in a German concentration camp – see Daladier (1995), 260. 4. LM, 137. See also Le Clère (1967), 146f; and Bernstein (1975), 159–63. 5. Bankwitz (1967), 188, quoting the 1934 National Assembly Report. See also statements made by Daladier and Lebrun to the post-war enquiry in the Pro- ceedings I, 12–13 (21 mai 1947) and IV, 950–1 (27 mai 1948). 216 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

6. Letter to his parents of 12 February 1934, quoted in CI, 616. A similar view is argued in Larmour (1964), 143–5, that ‘Daladier was afraid’, but also mis- takenly arguing that his resignation was against the advice of Cot and others. 7. Louis Joxe (1981), 197. 8. A. E. Moulin (1937). 9. CI, 627–9; CII, 78–80, 520–41; LM, 129. 10. Tristan Corbière (1935), Armor avec Huit Eaux-Fortes de Romanin. See also CI, 581, 672, with some examples in Lugand (1993), 68, 69, and Institut Jean Moulin (1994), 29–31. 11. CI, 636 and 754–7, for this, which in context indicates abiding fear of military intervention after 6 February. 12. CI, 639–42, 849. 13. See also Jackson (1988), 22f.

Notes to Chapter 5: The , 1936–8

1. Calef (1980), 94. The photograph is reproduced in Zeitonu (1993), 15, and there is a profuse letter of thanks to Moulin from the Generalitat de Catalunya in FLM 17863, 106. 2. Quoted in Institut Jean Moulin (1994), 40, from Moulin’s Riom tribunal statement on 5 May 1941. 3. Elly Herman in Vaïsse (1993), 193f. In that volume, see also the article by Martin Caedel, especially 182–3. For Moulin’s involvement see Calef (1980), 106f. 4. See the discussion on Wolton (1993), and associated literature below in Chapter 12. 5. CII, 509–15. For a full and reasonably objective account of the life and activities of Dolivet, see Péan (1998). 6. Calef (1980), 110. 7. Much of this is well described in Julian Jackson (1988). Also valuable are Renouvin and Rémond (1981); Lefranc (1974); Kergoat (1986); Bayac (1972); and Bodin and Touchard (1972). Older sources in English include James Joll’s article (1966) and Joel Colton’s biography of Blum, largely reissued in 1987. 8. Quotations in Simone Weil (1951), 169–70; and Jackson (1988), 92. 9. Vinen (1991), 37. Statements to the Riom court are quoted in CII, 24–6, and 653. 10. Chapman (1991), 37, 66–9, 78–84, 93, including earlier concessions by Déat and others. Moulin’s own later account given to the conseil général at Rodez is quoted in CII, 21. Marnham (2000), 77, repeats the show-trial version. 11. The vast literature on French involvement in the is con- veniently summarised in Jackson (1988), 203f. There are useful accounts in Hunt’s article in Alexander and Graham (1989), 38–49; Glyn Stone’s in Richardson and Stone (1994), 203f; and that of Thomas (1996), 89f. Further detail is in Colton (1987), 234f, much of it based on the very clear 1947 account by Blum in Assemblée Nationale (1951) I, 215f. There is an older account arguing for an active British role in Thomas (1965). 12. Hunt, in Alexander and Graham (1989), 47; Sharrock (1988), 168–9. Notes 217

13. Colton (1987), 234–5. 14. Péan (1998), 133f; Moch (1976), 132; Cot (1944), 350–1; Calef (1980), 107; Howson (1998), 50. There is an account by Cusin in Anon. (1979), Hommage à Pierre Cot. 15. Bayac (1972), 287. 16. Cot (1944), 351–6; Pierre Cot, ‘Ce que fut la non-intervention relâchée’, in Le Monde, 21 November 1975. 17. On Moulin as recruiter see Gisclon (1986), 59–61. See also Cate (1995), 234–5; and Schiff (1994), 276–85. Most recently, Howson (1998), 257–9 con- cludes that, despite later exaggerations, Malraux played a role in supplying planes. 18. Some historians minimise the material impact of the policy and understate the difficulty of carrying it out in the teeth of opposition, including direct sabotage from the extreme right. See Kergoat (1986), 198; M. Thomas (1996), 95. Cot (1944), 355–6 tells the moving story of Spanish anti-fascist soldiers in wartime exile in the USA who walked ten miles in the snow to shake his hand. 19. Letter from Cot to Laure Moulin of 19 June 1945, quoted in CII, 655, also quoting Pierre Cot on ‘Jean Moulin, patriote et républicain’, in Action, 15 June 1945. 20. Péan (1998), 141f; LM, 157. 21. These issues are extensively discussed, for example in Young’s article (1974) and his book (1978); together with Chapman (1991); Alexander (1992); Thomas (article, 1996); and Blatt (1998). Recent French work includes Vivier (1997), and Chadeau (1987). 22. Chapman (1991), 39f; Cointet (1998), 128. 23. Ducloux (1958), 51. 24. Lacaze (1992), 130, 279. 25. Bankwitz (1967), 249f; Alexander (1992), 296–9; Jordan (1992), 3, 145–52, 263–6; Thomas (1995), 59, 150. See also Buffotot’s article (1982), 547–51. 26. Cot (1939), 237–8; CII, 13, 653–4. 27. See Chapman (1991), 101–48; Alexander in Vaïsse (1993), 286–300; and Lis- sarrague (article, 1977), 100. On Moulin’s personal role see Calef (1980), 98. 28. This is the general conclusion of the definitive Frank (1982), summarised in his article (1983) in L’Histoire. 29. Cot (1944), 403; Thomas (1996), 152–3. 30. Cot (1939), 267–8; CII, 114–15, 541–7, printing the Memorandum of General Vuillemin. 31. Cot (1944), 399f; Assemblée Nationale (1951) Enquiry II, 300–2; Alexander (1992), 162f; Chapman (1991), 231–2. 32. There are many such to be found in FLM 17863, at 49, 113, 130, 176, 187, often about Moulin’s aviation populaire efforts. See also LM, 147f. 33. Thomas (1996), 148–53, etc., Cot (1941), ‘The Defeat of the French Air Force’, in Foreign Affairs, XIX, 798; Alexander (1992), 156–7. Moulin’s full deposition is in CIII, 1199–202. 34. The best account in English is Reynolds (1996), 65–82 including references. See also Fanon (article, 1982). For British aviation and the far right, see Griffiths (1983), 137–41. 218 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

35. Cointet (1998), 129, on the contribution of Déat, which is implausibly linked to fascist inspiration. CII, 66–72, 672 and 519–20 reproduces the article by Moulin entitled ‘L’Aviation Populaire, Comment elle est organisée’, which appeared in Vu, 1 November 1936, 32. Other points are covered in LM, 154; Cot (1939), and (1944) II, 269–71. 36. Quotations from Renouvin and Rémond (1981), 369; Chapman (1991), 129–30. See also Facon (1997), 163. 37. LM, 151. 38. FLM 17863, 38, 53; CII, 101. 39. This is brilliantly captured in Azéma (1984), 1–28. 40. Details can be found in Soucy (1995), 104f. 41. This is the description in the Dépêche de l’Aveyron of 24 March 1937, in FLM 17864, 192. 42. There is a printed version of his speech in ibid., 124–5. 43. This may well be the occasion of ‘most sincere thanks’ hand-written by Inte- rior Minister Dormoy in ibid., 17863, 104. 44. This was asserted in a letter written by Cot to Henri Michel, which is in AJ 72/233. See also Calef (1980), 118.

Notes to Chapter 6: The Youngest Prefect, 1938–9

1. Much of this is in FLM 17864, 149f. 2. Addressing the conseil général of Eure et Loire, CII, 60. 3. Alexandre Adler (1998) ‘Le vrai enigme Jean Moulin’, Le Monde, 11 December makes this point decisively in rejecting the ‘communist agent’ myths. 4. CII, 125f, covers all this, and all the quotations are from there unless stated. See also Calef (1980), 125. 5. Levisse-Touzé (1999), 27. 6. See Dubreuil in Rémond and Bourdin (1978), 77–94. 7. Meunier (1998), 40, says he denounced Munich, but Meunier was writing more than fifty years later. However, Moulin did not in any way dissent from the opinions of Pierre Cot. 8. CII, 125f. All quotations are translated from there unless stated. 9. One might have expected more, but he sent picture postcards of the Cathe- dral – FLM 17863, 30. 10. Gabory (1989), 314; Lord Byron, Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, chapter 3, stanza 57. 11. For example, in PC, 119–20. 12. Marceau commemoration in September 1946 – FLM 17863, 166. 13. Ory, in Rémond et Bourdin (1978). Zay wanted to revive the Popular Front spirit, but it was too late for that. 14. These reports of 4 and 27 May in the Departmental Archives are quoted in CII, 203, 210, 674. 15. Levisse-Touzé (1999), 16; LM, 179–81. 16. Rossi-Landi (1971), 164; and Le Populaire, of 24 August 1939, for the two latter statements. 17. Zay (1942), 69; for Cot and others, CII, 228, and CI, 18. Notes 219

Notes to Chapter 7: War and the First Resistance, 1939–40

1. Karel Bartosek et al. (1969), 20, 36; Vicki Caron, in Blatt (1998), 126–70. 2. See CII, 234f, for these quotations and others below unless stated. Moulin’s letter is quoted from the Charente Archives Départementales (M1/242) by Émile Témaine, in Milza and Peschanski (1994), 26, and more fully in Geneviève Dreyfus-Armand (1999), 117–18. 3. Apart from CII, see the statements in PC, 23–6. Relevant letters are in FLM 17864, 230–305. 4. FLM 17864, 233. 5. Levisse-Touzé (1999), 27. 6. Pomaret (1968), 130–1; Bargeton (1994). 7. LM, 217, and many others date the photo to the following winter but Cordier (CII, 242) is certain that it was before he needed to cover the scars inflicted on his neck in June 1940. 8. The memorandum is quoted in C II, 243, 683, which then covers the sub- sequent actions. See also Calef (1980), 148; and more generally, Rioux et al. (1987). 9. CII, 249, 291. 10. The same General Weiss told the Riom tribunal that Cot was a ‘super- dictator’ and Jauneaud a ‘pretentious megalomaniac’. CII, 686, gives this and much more. 11. A photograph of a reception, in LM after p. 197, is vaguely dated 1940. Churchill’s aide Desmond Morton referred in October 1941 (PREM 3/184/9, 154) to a lunch with Gamelin attended by Moulin, which seems to have been on 4 November 1939. See Gilbert (1983), 73, and below. 12. A number of the general issues can be followed in Blatt (1998), and details on French reaction in Crémieux-Brilhac (1990). The most vivid account remains Bloch (1968). 13. Lacouture (1990) I, 184. 14. The manuscript, hidden by Laure Moulin during the war, is in three small writing pads at FLM 17865–7. Some sharp expressions and personal remarks were omitted from the published version, but the indefatigable Daniel Cordier reprints the full version in CII, 585ff. He also gives an interesting parallel account of some of the same events by the acting Mayor Maurice Vidon, from FLM 17868, 34–40. 15. For another view of the term, see Gallo (1980). 16. LM, 188f, includes an unreliable later account; CII, 278. 17. These events are recounted in Péan (1998), 227–8, 245–6, and are said to be based on the papers of Antionette Sachs. On the episode more generally, see Rimbaud (1984) and Azéma (1990). 18. The original is reproduced in Institut Jean Moulin (1994), 44. See also LM, 192. 19. The convoluted text of the letter is in FLM 17868, 25. Moulin’s account, in PC, begins at this point. 20. (1963), 410. 21. This statement was thought unpublishable even in 1947. It is not in PC, but is in CII, 599. There is more detail of the bombing in Vidon’s account, at FLM 17868, 34. 220 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

22. PC, 28. 23. CII, 560. 24. LM, 195. 25. Michel (1971), 44; CII, 298. 26. This can be seen in later references to Moulin in Vidon’s account. See also PC, 52, 38, which is the source for the following quotations unless stated. 27. Meunier (1998), 52. 28. CII, 919–20; and PC, passim. 29. LM, 200, quoting de Torquat. 30. PC, 77; and CII, 585–7, which gives five other accounts of the famous scene, including two German accounts and Vidon’s version in FLM, NAF 17868, 39. The variations are of little significance, though there may have been two different meetings with German officers. 31. This incident is in the original manuscript of PC, given in CII, 575, but not in the printed edition. 32. CII, 575–6; and PC, 81–3. 33. The only detailed account of what followed, including reported conversa- tions, is by Moulin himself in PC. The main outlines are, however, confirmed by other sources given in CII, 695–6. 34. LM, 210. 35. CII, 330–1, 696, and the sources cited there. 36. FLM 17868, 53; and CII, 693, 695, 717. On first resisters, Nougères I (2nd edn, 1982), 33. 37. CII, 418, 606. 38. LM, 212–13; and also CII, 481–2, 722. 39. Institut Jean Moulin (1994), 51; Baruch (1997), 225–7. Moulin’s account is in FO 898/198. 40. All quotations are in CII, 593–4, etc. 41. FLM 17868, 1; Roger Langeron (1946), 109–11; LM, 212. There is some spec- ulation that he might have begun his efforts to reach London during this trip. 42. FLM 17868, 4–15, reprinted in CII, 598f. 43. FLM 17868, 22–52, covers ‘Exactions and Violence committed by the Germans against the civilian population of Eure-et-Loir’, and more incidents are cited from Departmental Archives in CII, 357ff, and 701–2. Moulin’s analysis of the Hague Convention is in CII 594–8. 44. These are outlined in PC, 148–9, omitting names and locations to be found in FLM, 17868, 30.

Notes to Chapter 8: From Resister to Resistance, 1940–1

1. These are later recollections of Meunier, in CIII, 74, 1345; and Dolivet, in Péan (1998), 302. 2. Calef (1980), 186, on the broadcast. Harold Nicolson (1970), 196, initially thought Labarthe ‘a more representative Frenchman than de Gaulle’. Péan (1998), 128, says he was a Soviet spy, though his errant eccentricity hardly made him much good. 3. The Cot story was apparently first told in Weil-Curie (1945). De Gaulle soon changed his mind, well before he met Moulin. Despite protests and resig- nations, he accepted Cot on American Gaullist bodies in July 1941, and in May 1942 in association with the French National Committee – De Gaulle, LNC IV, 272; and CIII, 817–19. 4. LM, 217f, and Calef (1980), 179f, on this period, with CIII, 73f. See also Péan (1998), 275f, which is frustratingly poorly documented. 5. Azéma (1990), 335–43; Langeron (1946), 192; Josse (1962 article). 6. Azéma (1990), 75, 79; Texcier (1945), 15; Blumenson (1977); Noguères et al.

Aglan (1999), 63f, Pineau (1983), 89; CIII, 99, 1347–8; LM, 216; Calef (1980), 191; Meunier (1998), 46, 63. HS6/421, 43, confirms that the contact was through Manhès while Moulin was in London. 9. Levy (1998), 45. The following account concentrates on the groups covered in Moulin’s October 1941 report and another that soon became important. The best general account in any language is Kedward (1978). I have added a little from AJ 72. 10. The manifesto was given enormous significance in the Cordier/Frenay dispute outlined below in Chapter 12, and discussed at inordinate length in CIII, 266–8, 944–1067, and 1286–335. Other issues are covered in Venner (1995), 157–60; AJ 72/46–8; CIII, 269; Frenay (1973), 32; and Granet and Michel (1957). 11. AJ 72/46, 48, 60, 64; Granet and Michel (1957); Douzou (1995); Veillon (1977); Levy (1998). There is an archive-based account in CIII, 1230–9. 12. Zeitoun (1993), 32. 13. CIII, 102, 1347; Calef (1980), 195. 14. CIII, 102, 874; Calef (1980), 190. On Krebs, see LM, 222; and Moulinas et al. (1993), 255. 15. Calef (1980), 192; LM, 234; Meunier (1998), 64; HS6/309, memo of 17 October 1941 on British contacts; FLM 17863, and Anon, 143, for the letters. 16. CIII (1979), 1199–202. 222 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

17. This world is described in Bénédite (1984); Fry (1997); and Calef (1980), 183f. For SOE contacts see Foot (1968), 180; CIII, 1385; and Piquet-Wicks (1957), 36–41. 18. Foot (1968), 2, 25, 120, including the assessment and quotation from Michel. See also LM; Péan (1998); and Piquet-Wicks (1957), 32–5. 19. The date is controversial because Frenay, in pursuit of his ‘crypto- Communist’ theory, later claimed it followed the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union (see CII, 111–13 and 1349, for another view). A vivid, if one-sided description is in Frenay (1973), 88–90. See also Chavance-Bertin (1990), 67–8, Noguères et al. (1967–81), II, 99; and Calef (1980), 191. 20. Péan (1998), 296f; Calef (1980), 184–5. 21. There are outlines in HS6/345 and 322, from which the quotations come. See also HS7/123 and CAB 102/650, 349f, summarised in Marcel Ruby (1990), 26f. On the miners, Taylor (2000), and her article (1997). 22. Pétain (1989), 164. 23. Noguères et al. (1967–81), II, 140. See CIII, 467–78, for what follows, includ- ing quotes unless stated. 24. Beevor (1981), 154–5; LM, 260; HS6/602. 25. De Gaulle (1955), 272. René Cassin took a similar view thirty years later (1975), 417, as did Meunier (1998), 67. Marks (1998), 328, and Calef (1980), 192, repeat this, though their chronology is clearly at fault. In fact the SOE was pressing from early October for his journey to be expedited (Passy I, 225). De Gaulle is vague on dates, and probably confused these events with the delays in returning Moulin in November and December. These certainly occurred, and due apology was offered, though Eden said they also were ‘only due to transport difficulties’: PRO HS6/311, memo of 22 December 1941 and letter of 20 January 1942, in de Gaulle (1955), 651. See also Foot (1978), 37. 26. I have used the version in Foot (1968), 489–98, translated back into French in LM, 244–56; and CIII, 1210–30, giving various French versions, showing changes from the original, such as the addition of the word ‘eventual’ to the title. I have incorporated these and other corrections, and added further points made in London in November (in PRO FO 898/198). CIII, 1230–9, reviews the historiography of the document, and there is a full contempo- rary summary in the SOE RF history at HS7/123/32–35. Marnham (2000), 133, espousing the ‘Communist agent’ myth, missed the circumstances and attitudes behind the report so he is alone, and quite misguided, in describ- ing the report as ‘a masterpiece of imprecision, overstatement, approxima- tions and bluff’. 27. A well-informed Polish account is quoted in CIII, 780–2, 1208–10. Differing resistance views from Forman from Liberté and d’Astier on behalf of Libéra- tion are discussed below. 28. Calef (1980), 193; Kedward (1978), 41–3. 29. Meunier (1998), 66. Péan (1998), 322, asserts that Antionette Sachs per- suaded him to change his plans because he had been ‘too long in the shadow of Pierre Cot’. 30. The main authority is now Crémieux-Brilhac (1996). Also useful are Gillois (1973) and Cointet (1990), with Kersaudy (1990) on Franco-British relations. There are various alternative viewpoints, such as Mengin (1966). Notes 223

PRO PREM 3, 120/2, partly quoted in Kersaudy (1990), 157f. There is more detail in FO 371/285845, which confirms that the Free French had already given much thought to the proposal. 39. This point was constantly emphasised by the British in the discussions in PRO FO 371/28584–5. 40. PRO FO 371/28214 gives the quoted memo dated 24 October 1941, just after Moulin’s release. See also Passy I, 218. In HS6/311 there is a bad-tempered debate on these matters. Buckmaster argues his case in HS7/121, 72. 41. Dalton (1957), 367, reflected in the founding statements in Stafford (1983), 215f, and West (1992), 20–1. 42. On this see, for example, Stafford (1997), 268; and Lord Gladwyn (1972), 103. 43. The quotes are from CAB 102/650/341 (29 August), and HS7/123, 6, and there is a similar statement on 15 April 1941 by Churchill’s factotum Desmond Morton in PRO HS6/325. See also Stafford (1983), 40, 77. 44. The head of the ‘F’ section, in Maurice Buckmaster (1958), 21, praised wartime co-operation, though he is more critical in HS7/121, from which the quote is taken. See also the history of ‘RF’ section in HS/7/123, Foot (1968), and Marcel Ruby (1990), 290. For a discussion of joint operations, see 3AG 2/375. 45. Martin Thomas (article, 2000), 64. 46. Morton is quoted from Cassin’s papers in CIII, 1396. On Cambon, CB, 190. The September quotations are in PRO FO 371/28214. 47. The quotations in HS6/311 give Dalton’s comments of October 1941. See HS6/316 for the memo of 31 July 1942 on ‘The Position of General de Gaulle and “Fighting France” vis-à-vis Resistance in France To-day’. 48. The first statement is in the Sutton interview in FO 898/198, and the other quotes are in CB, 247. For Cordier’s unsuccessful efforts to view the origi- nals, see CIII, 430–1, 934–42; and CC, 154, 895. 49. According to CB, 244, Moulin’s arrival ‘bouscule tout’. For a similar view, see the thesis of Charmley (1982), 3. 50. I am grateful to Wandsworth Local History Library and some current inhabi- tants for this information. 51. Ruby (1990), 74–9; CIII, 479. PRO HS6/318 says that 359 Frenchmen passed through between February and May 1941, 31.7% of the total. HS6/421 reports the March 1944 responses of Lucie Aubrac, who greatly impressed her interrogators. For a rejected protest, see Eden’s letter of 10 November 1941, in de Gaulle (1954), 627–8. 52. CIII, 770f, 1412, and the note to Captain Bienvenue of 21 October, in 3AG 2/172. See also Cornick (article, 1994), 335. 53. For French versions, see LM, 261–3; CIII, 480; and Calef (1980), 203. 224 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

54. Piquet-Wicks (1957), 41–2. The resident permit for ‘Joseph Mercier’ dated 25 October, in the Musée Jean Moulin in Paris, gives the hotel address. 55.

The fictional account of the interview in Decaux and Peyrefitte (1999), 71–80, plausibly has Moulin persuading the General. 58. Some of these meetings are described in Péan (1998), 384–9; but Passy I, 224f; Piquet-Wicks (1957), 42; and CIII, 841f, are more reliable. 59.

HS7/123, 1941, 36 gives a detailed summary. 67. CIII, 1263–6; CC, 144–6; Frenay (1976b), 124; Bourdet (1998), 185. See also Foot (1968), 181. 68. HS6/311 and 328 both contain copies in French; it is reproduced in CIII, 858, 1266–7. These files and HS6/602 cover the subsequent discussion and quotes. 69. The Eden letter, dated 22 January 1942, is in de Gaulle (1954), 651–2. 70. CIII, 888, 1279–85; and Noguères et al. (1967–81), II, 295. See 3AG 2/175 for the BCRA Report, cited in CIII, 1426. HS6/311 contains a letter from de Gaulle to Eden of 22 December, which is also in de Gaulle (1954), 646–7. This may be the letter de Gaulle thought he sent in October (see note 25 above). 71. Frenay (1973), 122. LM, 268, on Labarthe. Frenay (1977), 63, maintains the opposite without any evidence. Péan (1998), 322f, makes much of Dolivet’s contact with SOE in April 1941 and his rejection because of Comintern links. However, he provides nothing in the way of documented sources involving Moulin. See also Chapter 12 below. 72. FLM 17863, 89f; LM, 269; CIII 904, 1427. 73. 3AG 2/178, cited in CIII, 899, 1426. 74. CIII, 892–4; de Gaulle D&M, 134; CB, 248. PRO PREM 3/184/9 records a similar debate in the British Cabinet where the Foreign and Intelligence Services argued that individual assassinations could be justified. 75. CIII 899–900, 906–13, 1426–8; 3AG 2/378 includes d’Astier’s memorandum. 76. De Gaulle (1955), 633–4; CB, 253. 77. Kersaudy (1990), ch. 7. 78. CIII, 889f, on all this. 79. De Gaulle (1955), 647–8. There is some doubt about the authenticity of the wording, especially because of the use of Moulin’s actual name, which does not accord with Laure’s recollection: LM, 267, and CIII, 915f. However, Moulin certainly made use of some such document in 1942. Notes 225

80. Henri Michel (1971), 49; CIII, 1429. 81. Claude Bourdet (1998), 183. 82. De Gaulle gave some emphasis to this in all versions of his memoirs. These quotes are from the English edition (1955), 281. 83. Péan (1998), 363f. 84. This issue is bedevilled by the disappearance of any Cot/Moulin correspon- dence that might exist from this period. However, Sabine Jansen, who has studied Cot more than anybody, sees no reason to dispute the view expressed here. See also CIII, 932f. 85. This term is from Guichard (1980), 129.

There are some slight variations in the account in PF, seen from the pilot’s viewpoint. For accounts in English see Schoenbrun (1981), 171–2, with detail on RAF landings in Verity (1998). 5. Bouveret et al. (1999), 96–7. 6. LM 270f. Some accounts say he saw his family in Montpellier. 7. Ibid., 278ff, is the best source on this and much of what follows.

The statement is in 3AG 2/377, 6, a much-quoted file, though the close coin- cidence of date should be noted.

Notes to Chapter 10: The National Resistance Council, May 1943

1. Moulin eschewed the word ‘national’ to avoid confusion with the French National Committee, but it was added after his death (CC, 313). 2. Baumel (1999), 171. 3. CC, 270–85; Rémy (1950), 204f; Passy III; Grenier (1970), 178–80. 4. CC, 279f; Grenier’s account is in Cordier (1983), 46–9. 5. De Gaulle LNC 1943, 511–12; Sweets (1976), 125. 6. This was done in particular through Philippe Roques, Mandel’s former press officer (CB, 342–5). 7. Despite the claims reproduced in Sherwood (1970), 281, there are many discussions about feasibility in HS6. See also Reynaud (1963), 454–5; and Daladier (1995). Notes 229

8. Queuille experienced delays like Moulin, and it took SOE agent Forest Yeo- Thomas much effort to contact the other Radical leaders – 3AG 2/400, 42; HS7/242. 9. Bidault (1967), 176; 3 AG 2/401/9. 10. Daladier (1995), 160; Piketty (1998). 11. See 3AG 2/400, 223, 401, 23. For more see CC, 908. 12. Marc Sadoun (1982), 145f.

See also Piketty (1998), 211f. 16. Rémy (1948), 238; Passy II, 74. 17. 3AG 2/377, 7; quotation in Sweets (1976), 154–5. 18. 3AG 2/401, 1; HS 7/123, 24. See also Michel (1971), 187–8. 19. Soustelle (1950), 150. 20. 3AG 2/181, 14 December 1942, quoted in CC, 219, 296–7. 21. 3AG 2/401, 223, and Soustelle (1950), 151, are clear on this point, despite the unsubstantiated claim in Marnham (2000), 177, that the delay was con- trived by Moulin. There is more in PF, 128, and it is clear from HS 7/124, 12, that there was ‘a passage of telegrams which, owing to delay and mutilation, must have been confusing to all parties’, as detailed in PF, 129. 22. 3AG 2/318; de Gaulle LNC 1943, 511–14; CC, 311–12. 23. HS 7/124 18, 36, 179–80, 7/247, 179; Morgan (1954), 63; d’Astier (1965), 97; Michel (1971), 152–3; LM, 405–6. 24. Verity (1998), 194; Meunier (1998), 96. 25. PF, and Verity (1998), 64–5. Frenay (1973), 246, dates a directing committee meeting to 21 February, which cannot be accurate. 26. Passy III, 62. 27. There are detailed reports by Moulin on wireless communication matters dated 19 February, and accounts of meetings held on 16 and 22 February, all in PF. 28. Closon (1998), 38; de Gaulle, Memoirs (1955) II, 95, document 134. I have retranslated this text from the French edition, 445–6. There is a slightly longer version given in other places, such as d’Astier (1965), 282–3. The only significant addition concerns the Arquebuse mission, discussed below. 29. Lacouture (1990) I, 438. CC, 308f, describes how the document was drafted, attributing considerable significance to Moulin’s own role. CC, 328–9, gives the evidence, and 3AG 2/1, 18 March 1943, contains the quoted letter. 30. 3AG 401 235f. Péan (1998), 457, on the other hand, claims that Moulin did not hear the news until his return to France. He also says that Manhès revealed his contacts, though that is not the view of Yeo-Thomas, despite his disagreements – Seaman (1997), 78. 31. Pineau (1961), 288–9. 32. Sweets (1976), 124; Passy III, 300–1. Henri Rousso, in Azéma and Bédarida (1993). 33. These developments in general are covered in H. R. Kedward (1993), 1–43. Opposition to the Relève is described in Soustelle (1950), 140–1, and the Montluçon events in Schoenbrun (1981), 246–7. See also Vistel (1970). 230 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

Frenay (1973), 237f, says he first heard of what became the maquis on New Year’s Eve. 34. D’Aragon (1977), 110. 35. HS 6/322, 329 and 316; HS 7/247176–8, 272; 7/124, 29. 36. Frenay (1973), 246f, which seems to give the wrong date. See also LM, 369; Bourdet (1998), 162; 3AG 2/401, 260, 22 March 1943; Vistel (1970), 608; Michel (1971), 176–9. 37. Passy III, 341–5; and Veillon and Wieviorka on ‘La Résistance’, in Azéma and Bédarida (1993), 65–90, give summaries. There is more in Calmette (1961) on OCM, Mutter (1944) and Granet (1964) on CDR, Wievorka (1995) on Défense de la France. There is a good subjective contemporary account by SOE agent Forest Yeo-Thomas in HS 6/614 and HS 7/247, 249–50, from which the quotes are taken. 38. Baumel (1999), 292; Calmette (1961), 67. 39. Soustelle (1947), 312. 40. This account is based on 3AG 2/42 and HS 5/614 and 7/245. There is much more in Passy III, Seaman (1997), Rémy (1948), 238f, and Hostache (1989), 19f. 41. This is suggested by Passy, developed by Péan (1998), 449f, and embellished in Marnham (2000), 175f. 42. This is essentially the view presented by Cordier in CC 365f, though he adds a surfeit of Machiavellian intrigue. He rather undermines his theory by providing a detailed summary of messages and responses, which indicate limitless scope for honest confusion and misunderstanding. The quote is in Baumel (1999), 296. 43. Villon (1989), 71. 44. Passy III, 230f; Michel (1971), 129. Frenay (1973), 203, says he agreed with Brossolette, but this was not a view that was widely shared. It is also inter- esting to notice that Passy took a less hostile view to Moulin in an interview in 1998 – Benamov (1999), 144–7. 45. CC, 303–5. Much of Brossolette’s report is in LM, 474–5. 46. Passy III, and Meunier (1998); Seaman (1997), 78, gives the view of Yeo- Thomas, reflecting Brossolette. 47. HS 7/124, 13, 247, 170. 48. Wieviorka (1995), 208f. 49. Passy III, 179–80; Calmette (1961), 148–52; LM, 384. 50. Passy III, 179–82, for one account, and Meunier (1998), 99, for another, much later but from a participant. Péan (1998), 466–7 repeats the third-hand allegation that Moulin dropped his trousers to display contempt for Brossolette. 51. Yeo-Thomas, in HS7/247, 248, and on the executive, ibid., 19. 52. HS7/247, 236. 53. There are vivid descriptions by Yeo-Thomas of these meetings, in HS6/14 and 7/124, briefly summarised in Chapman (1966), 39–40. Passy’s report of the 12 April meeting is in AG 3 2/42, largely reproduced in Passy III, and sum- marised in CC, 334f. See also LM, 404. 54. HS 7/247, 242. 55.

57. Michel (1971), 134. 58. Bidault (1967), 24, says that on his return from London, Moulin told him that he now had information that the invasion would not take place in 1943. Neither of them dared pass on this most unwelcome news. 59. Closon (1998), 80. 60. Levy (1998), 100, confirmed in HS7/124, 19; Vistel (1970), 83; Crémieux (1966), 108–9. 61.

Notes to Chapter 11: The Tragedy of Caluire – and After

1. Dominique Veillon on ‘Caluire’, at the Colloque Jean Moulin on 11 June 1999. She has also produced an excellent summary of the issues jointly with Jean-Pierre Azéma, in Azéma et al. (1994), 127–44. 232 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

2. Daniel Cordier, in CC, 433; Raymond Aubrac, in 72 AG/233, 20 October 1963; Garçon (1950), 86. 3. Baumel (1999), 313. 4. Azéma (1984), 143. 5. A more or less accurate chart of the ‘secret army’, said to have been shown personally to Hitler, is much reprinted, for example Bénouville (1949), 349. 6. A scribbled note to Lily Manhès is reproduced in Bouverel (1999), 118. See also LM, 431. Péan (1998), 471–4, interviewed Colette Pons in 1996, and adds more. 7. 3AG 2/401, 170f. 8. 3AG 2/377, 7; Mireille Albrecht (1986), 337. 9. Meunier (1998), 110; Closon (1998), 91. 10. LM, 381f, gives the message of 7 May from which the quote is taken. The SOE response is in PF, 5 June 1943, summarised in HS 7/247, 260–4. CC, 446–7, gives more of the French side of the discussion. 11. LM, 407–8; HS 7/124, 21. 12. From the numerous accounts of the following events I have generally fol- lowed CC, 430ff, and Noguères et al. (1967–81), III, 413ff, supplemented from LM except where stated. See also Dreyfus (1999). 13. To further complicate matters, Hardy claimed that he did not pick up the message, but was travelling to Paris for quite other reasons. 14. Caviglioni (article, 1989), 34. 15. Reproduced in CC, 444–5. 16. 3AG 2/181. 17. Benamou (1999), 29–30, from interviews of 1997 and 1999. Earlier interviews are reported in Noguères et al. (1967–81), III, and Schoenbrun (1981), 308. 18. Péan (1998), 546–9. 19. Lucie Aubrac (1997), 85; Raymond Aubrac (1996), 95. 20. Péan (1998), 552, for example. This evidence was dismissed by some because it came from a Gestapo agent. 21. They are exhaustively recorded in CC, and a few more can be found in LM, 476–83. 22. Bidault (1967), 24. 23. Doubt is cast on this much-repeated story (in Pineau (1961), 122–4) by Cordier, in CC, 471. Aglan (1999), 7, provides thin supporting evidence. 24. Guillin (1995), 272. 25. This is reproduced in Institut Jean Moulin (1994), 106. 26. LM, 14. 27. Noguères (1985), 225–31. The view that Aubrac was engaged in a triple bluff, acting on behalf of the Russians to get the Gestapo to kill their former agent Moulin, suggested in Marnham (2000), 246f, is, like all such diabolical con- spiracy theories, hard to disprove, and even harder to take seriously. More serious issues about the actions of the Aubracs are considered in Chapter 12. 28. Péan (1998), 539; Dreyfus (1996), 262–3; H6/421, 28 July 1943. 29. Noguères et al.

32. 3AG 2/181. 33. The obituary of Jarrot in The Times of 25 April 2000 mentions this, but see CI, 260–2. 34. CI, 264–8. 35. De Gaulle (1959a), 168; telegrams in 3AG 2/401 and 397, partly quoted in CB, 750. Passy III, 265, for his view. 36. This is covered in CB 751f. The view of Serreulles on the ‘affair of the rue de la Pompe’ is in AJ 72/45. He rather downplays its significance. The SOE assessment of Serreulles was ‘that his presence on the field was a menace to his unfortunate comrades’ (HS 7/124, 23). Ibid., 52, describes Bingen as ‘deplorable’, ‘however brave his death’. This is repeated in Marshall (1966), 53f, and Seaman (1997), 93f. CB, 761, gives a more positive (French) assessment. 37. LM, 411; Mengin (1966), 211. 38.

Notes to Chapter 12: A Contested Legacy, 1943–2000

1. Message of Laurent Fabius to the Colloque Jean Moulin, 10 June 1999. 2. For a brilliant description, see Pierre Nora (1996), 205–40. 3. On the freemasons, see Headings (1949) and Nordmann (1974), 336–7, Faucher (1986), 236–7, argues for his membership on the basis of attendance at one meeting in 1937. For the Radicals, Nicolet (1957), 101. Moulin’s name figured prominently on the web site of the Radical Socialist Party when it was celebrating its centenary in 1999. 4. De Gaulle, LNC VI, 200, 223, and PC, 13. 5. Levisse-Touzé (1999), 62; and FLM, 17868, 190–210. 6. Dalloz (1992), 88; Bidault (1950 article), 1–5; Calef (1960), 8; Farge (1946), 14–15. There is more from Bidault in 72 AJ/49, as also in Resistance (1967). 7. PC, 166–9; Le Monde, 20 August, 17 December 1946; Antoinette Sachs (pub- lished under her later name, Saxe) Le Monde Ilustré, 1 February 1947. 8. Le Monde, 23 January 1998, 14, on the ENA; and Bercellini and Wieviorkal (1995), 203–37, on the plaque at the Interior Ministry. 9. Pierre Cot, ‘Jean Moulin, patriote et républicain’, Action, 15 June 1945, partly reprinted in Benfredj (1990); and Passy’s volumes of 1947 and 1951, here referred to as Passy I, II and III. 3G 2/1–3 clearly shows that this is not the work of Passy alone. 10. For details see Mossuz (1970); Touchard (1977), 319–23; and Moreau (1998), 192f. 11. Alphandery (1999), 65–8. See also Hessel (1997), 152, and an interesting interview with him in Benamou (1999), 275–302. 12. For a list of these publications, see ‘Club Jean Moulin’ in the bibliography. 13. Peyrefitte (1997) II, 109. Georges Bidault was just as indignant, but from an anti-de Gaulle viewpoint. 234 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

14. For a full account see Rousso (1991), 82–97. There is more in Malraux (1968), 381–7. 15. Nora (1996), 565. Laure Moulin in Le Monde, 12 December 1964, gives her view. See above, Chapter 1, for more detail. 16. One lavishly illustrated account is to be found in Insitut Jean Moulin (1994). 17. Le Monde, 22 May 1981. 18. The catalogue for Lyons is Zeitoun (1993), and material available at Béziers can be seen in Lugand (1993). 19. This is covered in Chapter 10 above, and in Frenay’s publications discussed below. 20. Such a view is presented in Dreyfus (1990), 698–9. 21. The 1950 letter is in Passy III, 389–415, developed in Frenay (1976b), xii, 444–8. 22. Claude Bourdet, Le Monde, 26 April 1973. The historian Jean-Pierre Azéma (1983), in L’Histoire, April 1983, 102, concluded that ‘there is no Moulin affair’. 23. Johnson’s article (1999), 11. 24. Le Monde, 7 November 1989, has an indignant response from Chillina Frenay on behalf of her late husband, and a piece by Jean-Pierre Azéma pointing to the a-historical character of charges about early Pétainism. See also Figaro, 23 and 31 October 1989, and Henri Noguères in Le Monde, 15 November 1989, on the issue of length. Most of these articles are reprinted in CIII, 1312f. 25. This was the title of the paper given by Mme Vergez at the Colloque Jean Moulin on 11 June 1999. The Cordier volumes are referred to in this book as CI, CII, CIII and CC. 26. Bowyer (1985) and (1995) gives the background and Rousso (1991), 199–216, provides a somewhat heterodox account. There are fair narratives in de Hoyos (1984), Paris (1985), and Mérindol (1987); much of the balanced jour- nalism is reproduced in Gauthier (1988), and a lot more is collected at the IHTP. There is also a film of the trial, which can be seen at the Resistance Museum in Lyons. 27. Le Monde, 4 May 1987. 28. For a summary, see Faligot and Kauffer (1989), 496–507. Corgi Books pub- lished an example of Hardy’s fiction in 1958 as Bitter Victory. See also Hardy (1984), and CC, 717–85. A recent reiteration of the general view by a resis- tance leader very close to the event is given in Benamou (1999), 31, and the case for other possibilities is given in Marnham (2000), 233f. There is more detailed discussion on the events above in Chapter 11. 29. For this see Rousso (1991), 208–9, and Henri Noguères (1985), 20f. The view of Jean-Pierre Azéma is in L’Histoire, 55 April 1983, 98–102. 30. Wright (1987), 239–40. These opinions are essentially repeated in Andrew and Gordievsky (1990), 370–1, without any verifiable evidence. For one of many protests about this from a serious historian, see Crémieux-Brilhac (1996), 176. 31. Wolton (1998) contains more of this, as does Haynes and Klehr (1999), where lists of Venona transcripts about Cot are given, but only assertions that they went beyond publicly stated positions. Notes 235

32. Nicolson (1970), 196. Much of this is in Wolton (1993), embroidered by Péan (1998) and repeated in Marnham (2000). Straight (1983), 253–8, covers Dolivet’s extraordinary American career. 33. Giraud (1988), 108–44, 154–8, 267–8; (1989), 284ff; and Courtois (1998), 373. See also Vidal-Naquet (1993), 20–3. 34. Benfredj (1990), 108–44, 154–8, 267–8, crushingly refuted in Vidal-Naquet (1993), 18–19. 35. Thierry Wolton (1993) provoked numerous articles and a few books. A passionate and elegant refutation of Wolton’s augments and method is in Vidal-Naquet (1993), and another trenchant attack is in Conan and Rousso (1994), 209–36. Some support is in Figaro-Magazine, 6 February 1993, where Henri-Christian Giraud teamed up with the reformed Stalinist Annie Kriegel. Issues of the Nouvel Observateur of 17 and 25 February 1993 include contributions from François Furet as well as from historians with knowledge of the period including Jean-Pierre Azéma, François Bédarida, and the biographer Jean Lacouture. See also the Stéphane Courtois article (1993). 36. Vidal-Naquet (1993), 20, on the ‘homosexual link’, and 59f, on the ‘Spanish smoke screen’. 37. On the source, see Wolton in Figaro-Magazine, 6 February 1993, and Wolton (1993), 329, for the limited news from Chartres. For a historian’s counter- view see François Bédarida, ‘L’Histoire de la Résistance et l’affaire Jean Moulin’, in Cahiers de l’Institut de l’Histoire du Temps Présent, 27, June 1994, 160. Courtois (1993 article) comes to the same conclusion. 38. On this, see Stéphane Courtois (1993 article), 12, and Gilles Perrault, ‘Quand Trepper Mentait’, in Nouvel Observateur, 25 February 1993, 91. For a French translation of the full text, see Wolton (1993), 353–7. 39. There is a devastating critique in Conan and Rousso (1994), 222f. 40. In his debate with Vidal-Naquet in Le Monde, 26 November 1993. Marnham (2000), 246, has revived this now unsupported theory and asserts that it will one day be proved from unrevealed and unspecified documents. 41. On Kriegel, see Delwit and Dewael (1984). For Furet, see his article in Nouvel Observateur, 18 February 1973, and Vidal-Naquet (1998), 345. 42. Conan and Rousso (1994), 227; François Bédarida, ‘L’Histoire de la Résistance et l’affaire Jean Moulin’, in Cahiers de l’Institut de l’Histoire du Temps Présent, 27 June 1994, 158; and Crémieux-Brilhac, in Vidal Naquet (1993), 155–60, and in his book (1996), 244. 43. Bernstein et al. (1995), 70. 44. The earlier events are covered in Conan and Rousso (1994), and Froment (1994), 121f. For the background on Papon, see Poiret-Delpech (1998), and for his trial, see the reports of Jean-Michel Dumay in Le Monde, extensively detailed in his book (1998). The best summary in English is Nancy Wood’s 1999 article, reprinted in her book (1999), 113–42. 45. Libération published a supplement on 9 November 1997 giving an account of the ‘table ronde’. Measured accounts are given by the historian Antoine Prost (writing also ‘as a man and a citizen’) in Le Monde, 12 May 1997, on ‘Les historiens et les Aubrac: une question de trop’, and by Gilles Perrault on ‘Barbie, son Tartuffe et les Aubrac’, in Le Monde, 23 May 1997. 236 Jean Moulin, 1899–1943

46. The controversy is well summarised in an article as yet unpublished, by Hanna Diamond and Claire Gorrara, ‘Occupation Memories: French history and the Aubrac Affair in the 1990s’, kindly supplied by the authors. There is another summary in Guillon’s article (1999), and a rather less balanced account by Paul Webster on ‘Resistance Heroes tarnished by time’, in the Guardian, 10 July. For a spirited defence of the Aubracs, see Delpla (1998), expanding on his article ‘Quelle affaire Aubrac?’ in Le Monde of 9th May. 47. Le Monde, 4 April 1998. Chauvy continues to publish his views on an Inter- net site, www.csonline.net/moulince/moul-g.htm 48. Guillon article (1999), 92; Marnham (2000), 218f. 49. Johnson’s article (1999), 10. 50. Jacques Baynac (1998) and Pierre Péan (1998). There is a journalistic account of all this in L’Express, 19 November 1998, and a review displaying sympa- thy with the views of Baynac, by François-Georges Dreyfus (article, 1999). Cordier’s response is in CC, 860–74. 51. Péan (1999). The phrase appears as the heading of a review of the book in Le Figaro. Péan undermines his perceived veracity on p. 253 by attacking ‘punctilious historians’ who demand proof for every statement. 52. Alexandre Adler, ‘La vraie énigme Jean Moulin’, in Le Monde, 11 December 1998. There is also a good summary in Douglas Johnson’s article (1999). 53. Levisse-Touzé (1999). 54. For a review, see Marion Van Renterghem in Le Monde, 11 September 1999. 55. Decaux and Peyrefitte (1999), and Bouveret et al. (1999). 56. On a day just as cold, but with many fewer histrionics from President Chirac than Malraux had bestowed on Moulin. See Harris (article, 1998), 53–5. Bibliography
