Four SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR AS MEDIATOR for FOREIGN Four SIMONE DE BEAUVOIR AS MEDIATOR FOR FOREIGN LITERATURE IN LES TEMPS MODERNES Stève Bessac-Vaure This chapter studies the role of Simone de Beauvoir in Les Temps Modernes, a French journal edited by Jean-Paul Sartre. Beauvoir played a pivotal role, being in charge of literary publications. This function allowed her to publish works of numerous foreign authors according to her existentialist conception of literature, a conception that mixes philosophy and fiction to promote human freedom. By favoring foreign existentialist literature, Beauvoir contributes to the development of a transnational literary movement. She is in stark opposition to another inter- national literary movement, socialist realism, whereas Sartre was a Communist fellow traveler. 1. Introduction According to Nicole Racine, while “female intellectuals were long left out of intellectual history” (2003, p. 341, translation mine), Simone de Beauvoir endures as one of the most renowned, analyzed French intellectuals. Howev- er, her role in Les Temps Modernes—a politico-cultural journal edited by Jean-Paul Sartre—remains underappreciated. At its inception, in 1945, Beau- voir was on the editorial board along with Raymond Aron, Colette Audry, René Etiemble, Michel Leiris, Albert Ollivier, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Jean Paulhan, Jean Pouillon, Pierre Uri, and Sartre. The intention of the journal was to enable readers—intellectuals and students alike—to understand the world by publishing literature and studies on international events. Contributors to Les Temps Modernes promoted dem- ocratic socialism with national independence, then called neutralism, a politi- cal movement that attracted numerous French intellectuals. In 1948–1949, neutralist intellectuals founded the Rassemblement Démocratique Révolu- tionnaire (RDR), which was a political failure. To have political influence on the proletariat, Sartre also chose to become a fellow traveler in 1951. Many contributors to this existentialist publication did not agree with Sartre’s choice to sympathize with the Communists, which is why the journal kept a neutralist policy during the time he was a fellow traveler . The majority of articles published in Les Temps Modernes defended a neutralist policy whereas the articles that alluded to Sartre’s fellow traveler affiliation were few. Because Sartre did not write many articles for Les Temps Modernes, his influ- ence on the readers weakened. After Aron and Paulhan left the journal, Beau- 58 STÈVE BESSAC-VAURE voir and Merleau-Ponty played central roles. However, Sartre was the only name that appeared on the publication, credited as the Editor. This begins to explain the under-appreciation of Beauvoir’s role. From 1945 to 1950, she often published her own writings, even contributing excerpts from The Se- cond Sex (2010). But after 1950, she published very little of her work in the journal, and from 1951 to 1956, Beauvoir wrote only four articles for Les Temps Modernes. Historians such as Anna Boschetti and Michel Winock seem to grant Beauvoir a strictly passive role. Winock details how Beauvoir took care of the journal’s administration: the “procedures related to obtaining rationing paper, the model and cover choices, and talks with Sartre and Merleau-Ponty” (1997, p. 551, translation mine; see also Boschetti, 1985). By her own admission, Beauvoir also took care of layout for Les Temps Modernes after Paulhan’s departure (Beauvoir, 1963, p. 1:91). However, Beauvoir was actually in charge of the journal alongside Merleau-Ponty. She described this period of her life to Nelson Algren in a letter of 1949: “So, here I am in Paris again. I don’t enjoy so much being there, but I have to take care of T. M. since Merleau-Ponty is going to New York and Mexico” (Beauvoir, 1997, p. 250). Apart from administrative tasks, Beauvoir led the literary department of Les Temps Modernes, a significant aspect, because she considered literature to be a way to discover the world, as she posited in “Littérature et métaphysique” (Literature and metaphysics) (1946). She introduced numerous foreign authors, in accordance with the journal’s choice to foster an interna- tional perspective, because existentialist philosophers believe the problem of the human condition is the same everywhere. How was Beauvoir, a writer, transformed into a “cultural mediator” for foreign literature? In the Cold War context and that of Sartre’s fellow travel- ing with the Communists, what decisive criteria influenced her publication preferences? In what ways did her practice as cultural mediator allow her to convey her existentialist philosophy, and how did she reconcile philosophy and literature? Based on an analysis of Les Temps Modernes over the period of 1952– 1956, Beauvoir’s correspondence with Algren, her essay on literature (1946), and her autobiographical works, I will discuss Beauvoir’s mediation in practice: its criteria, its channels, its beneficiaries. In the absence of polls, it is difficult to evaluate how readers perceived these literary choices, but her role undoubtedly allowed her to broadcast her philosophical-literary ideas, ideas that conflicted with the contemporary communist literature marked by socialist realism. 2. Simone de Beauvoir, a Literary Mediator In her memoirs, Beauvoir wrote, “I was working on my essay and keeping busy at Les Temps Modernes. Every time I opened a manuscript I had a sense of adventure. I read English and American books no one had heard of in .

    C HAPTER 3 1952 Paris: Waiting for Godot and the Great Quarrel En attendant, essayons de converser sans nous exalter, puisque nous sommes incapables de nous taire.1 In the meantime let us try and converse calmly, since we are incapable of keeping silent.2 —Estragon in Waiting for Godot 1952 Paris was not a silent place. Earlier, after the bombs fell on Europe, there was not exactly calm after the storm. Even though a renewed hope in peace briefly followed the end of the war, imme- diately after there was the overwhelming prospect of rebuilding Europe after the devastation it had endured.3 As I attempt to show, the nonlinear historical progression following WWII provided 1952 Paris with a situation rife with philosophical conflict. The philo- sophical (and, in a sense, political) debate that Camus and Sartre had in Les Temps modernes in mid-1952 was indicative of the his- torical moment, much like the philosophical conversations that Samuel Beckett engaged with in Waiting for Godot. I argue that Waiting for Godot explores the same (epistemological) dilemma that Merleau-Ponty says defined his era: being versus doing. Post-WWII France As Tony Judt argues, three problems were in the forefront in the first 18 months following the Allied victory: a lack of food, a M. Y.

  • The Reception of the Second Sex in Europe
    Feminisms and feminist movements The reception of The Second Sex in Europe Sylvie CHAPERON ABSTRACT From the date of its publication in France in May 1949 to the 2000s, the European reception of Simone de Beauvoir’s The Second Sex—of which the French component is well known—gave rise to many debates and critiques in literary and political circles as well as among feminists. Its contents indeed challenged the dominant sexual order, and served as an invitation for the liberation of morals and gender equality. Neither the work nor its reception can be separated from the rest of the author’s work, or from her life, travels, and political commitments. Until the mid-1960s, the critical reception was closely linked to the international diffusion of French existentialism as well as the political and cultural logic of the Cold War. Feminist debates dominated from the 1960s to the 1980s, before the development of Beauvoirian studies led to a scholarly reevaluation of the book. In The Second Sex, which was published by Gallimard in 1949, Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) directly attacked the dominant sexual order: she called for the liberalization of contraception and abortion, rehabilitated feminine homosexuality, emphasized the violence of sexual relations, and dispelled the myths of the maternal instinct, femininity, and maternity. The French reception of the lengthy essay was highly polemical. When one of the chapters appeared in the journal Les Temps Modernes in May 1949, François Mauriac (1885-1970) sparked a controversy in the literary supplement of the newspaper Figaro. He was indignant that the “literature of Saint- Germain-des-Prés” had reached the “limits of the abject” with the text entitled “Sexual Initiation of the young woman,” and encouraged Christian youth to react.

  • Samuel Beckett in Context Edited by Anthony Uhlmann Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-01703-0 - Samuel Beckett in Context Edited by Anthony Uhlmann Frontmatter More information Spec SD1 Date 26-july SAMUEL BECKEtt IN CONTEXT When Samuel Beckett first came to international prominence with the success of Waiting for Godot, many critics believed the play was divorced from any recognisable context. The two tramps, and the master and servant they encounter, seemed to represent no one and everyone. Today, critics challenge the assumption that Beckett aimed to break definitively with context, highlighting images, allusions and motifs that tether Beckett’s writings to real people, places and issues in his life. This wide-ranging collection of essays from thirty-seven renowned Beckett scholars reveals how extensively Beckett entered into dialogue with important literary traditions and the realities of his time. Drawing on his major works, as well as on a range of letters and theoretical notebooks, the essays are designed to complement each other, building a broad overview that will allow students and scholars to come away with a better sense of Beckett’s life, writings and legacy. Anthony Uhlmann is a Professor of Literature and the Director of the Writing and Society Research Centre at the University of Western Sydney. He is the author of a number of works on Samuel Beckett, including Beckett and Poststructuralism (1999) and Samuel Beckett and the Philosophical Image (2006). © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-01703-0 - Samuel

  • Michel Winock Did Sartre Always Get It Wrong?
    1 Michel Winock Did Sartre Always Get it Wrong? The balance sheet looks damning. He has been accused of having been passive under the Occupation, of having compromised himself with totalitarianism, and of being a demagogue for young gauchistes. And yet he could sometimes display lucidity and courage. This is his political itinerary. ‘I have never wanted to be involved in politics and I have never voted.’ Jean- Paul Sartre wrote those words on 3 October 1939. He had just been called up into the auxiliary meteorological service and would spend almost the entire ‘phoney war’ in Alsace. With a lot of spare time on his hands, he began to write a diary which, although incomplete (the complete text has never been found), was published posthumously under the title Carnets de la drôle de guerre.1 In it, he makes a detailed self-analysis and the text sheds light on his political development. His outspoken abstentionism is based upon his strong conviction that he must construct his life in complete freedom: ‘I was obsessed with an ideal of being a great man that I had borrowed from romanticism.’ Even as a child, he had felt the need to become ‘a great writer.’ Years went by. He attended the Ecole Normale Supérieure, 1 Jean-Paul Sartre, Carnets de la drôle de guerre. Septembre 1939 – mars 1940, Paris: Gallimard, 1995. 2 came first in the agrégation de philosophie and became a schoolteacher in Le Havre, but always expected to win literary glory. Whilst studying and teaching philosophy, he made a name for himself with La Nausée (Nausea), the novel he published in 1938, a collection of short stories, Le Mur (The Wall), published in 1939, and articles in the Nouvelle Revue Française.

  • Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980)
    Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980) Jean-Paul-Charles-Aymard Sartre was born on June 21, 1905 in Paris. His father died when Sartre was only a year old, and so he went to live with his maternal grandfather, Carl Schweitzer. As a boy, Sartre was small and cross-eyed, and he would search for playmates in the Luxembourg Gardens of Paris. He attended the Lycée (Government supported secondary school) Henri IV in Paris and after the remarriage of his mother, the lycée in La Rochelle. From there he went to the École Normale Supérieure, graduating in 1929. Sartre had a life-long companionship with Simone de Beauvoir but because of their resistance to bourgeois values, they never married. During his years in graduate school, Sartre met many great writers of the time, including Raymond Aron, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Simone Weil, Jean Hippolyte and Claude Lévi-Strauss. Sartre taught at the lycées of Le Havre, Laon and Paris from 1931 to 1945. He began writing his first novel, La Nausée (Nausea , 1938), while teaching at Le Havre, influenced at the time by the philosophy of Edmund Husserl and his Phenomenological method. It is a story of life without purpose, in which the protagonist, Antoine Roquetin, discovers an obscene excessiveness of the world around him, inducing in his own solitude experiences of a totalizing, psychological nausea. Sartre portrays a horrific rationality and fixity of the banal nature of bourgeois culture, which he compares to an impressive solidity of stones on the seashore. While the publication of his early, largely psychological studies, L’Imagination (1936), Esquisse d’une théorie des émotions (Outline of a Theory of the Emotions ), 1939, and L’Imaginaire: Psychologie Phénoménologique de l’Imagination (The Psychology of Imagination ), 1940, did not garner much attention, Nausea and the collection of stories Le Mur (Intimacy , 1938), swiftly brought him recognition.

Deininger, M.A., Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2009 This dissertation provides a framework in which to consider how collective memory, national identity, and literature insist on a political vision of the nation. The works in question are examples of the enduring impact of pivotal events on the French literary tradition. This study takes a diachronic approach to studying literature written during moments of crisis in France. It examines works dealing with the Revolutionary Terror (1793-1794), the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871), and World War II’s drôle de guerre (1940). The writers chosen for this dissertation all use the rhetoric of literature as a way to think through the crisis and imagine ways to respond to it. In particular, this study explores how fear, power, and indoctrination are used to represent ideals of French national identity and the chaos surrounding earth-shattering events.
