  • Allez Viens Poupoule Septembre 1902. Après Être
    ALLEZ VIENS POUPOULE Septembre 1902. Après être passé par la scène de la Scala, le célèbre music-hall parisien du boulevard de Strasbourg où il interprète son répertoire Montmartrois, Félix Mayol enregistre son premier disque chez Zon O Phone. Son titre : Viens Poupoule. Cet ancien matelot de la Marine nationale arrivé huit ans plus tôt à la capitale pour chanter dans les cabarets se produi- sait déjà, adolescent, dans sa ville de Toulon sous le nom de « Petit Ludovic ». À trente ans, il est désormais une star reconnue, et reconnaissable, grâce au brin de muguet qu’il porte à la boutonnière et à la houppe qui trône au-dessus de sa tête. Mais c’est avec Komm Karlineken, un air créé par l’Allemand Adolf Spahn en 1898, que Mayol deviendra riche et très célèbre. Cet air, Mayol l’entend sur la scène de la Scala, interprété en conclusion de son tour de chant par un artiste venu d’outre-Rhin. Enthousiaste, il demande à son ami, le parolier Alexandre Trébitsch, de l’adapter. Mais le gros problème est de remplacer le prénom Karlineken par un prénom, ou un surnom : Lisette, Ninette, Poulette, rien ne vient, ou plutôt, rien ne va… jusqu’au jour où, à la sortie du cabaret, il entend un homme lancer à son épouse : « Allez, viens Poupoule »… 15 SI LE CURÉ N’AVAIT paS ÉTÉ LÀ Mars 1914. Costume de troufion sur le dos, Bach se présente sur la scène du café-concert l’Eldorado de Paris et chante devant les soldats en permission la nouvelle chan- son de son répertoire : c’est un succès ! Face à un public composé essentiellement de jeunes militaires partant à la guerre, La Madelon et, il faut bien le dire, son hilarante interprétation à la fois burlesque et théâtrale font mouche.

Bertozzi/Musée de Bastia Portrait de Napoléon III Alfred Charles Ferdinand Decaen (1820-1902) d’après Franz-Xaver Winterhalter (1805-1873) Entre 1860 et 1861 Huile sur toile 242 x 158 cm Musée de Bastia MEC.56.13.191 CORSICA IMPERIALE Napoléon III et la Corse (1851-1870) 6 juillet - 21 décembre 2019 La mise en place du second Empire, permettant le retour d’un Bonaparte à la tête de l’Etat, constitue, sous divers aspects, un tournant majeur pour le devenir de la Corse, région périphérique mais hautement symbolique pour le régime impérial. Dans une île en proie à d’importantes difficultés économiques, le neveu de Napoléon Ier incarne l’espoir et la modernité. Son arrivée au pouvoir, conjuguée à l’attachement populaire au souvenir napoléonien et à l’illustre dynastie, ouvre aux représentants de grandes familles insulaires de nouvelles perspectives d’ascension sociale. Avec l’installation du régime de Napoléon III, la Corse va saisir l’opportunité de s’exprimer par le biais de consultations, se matérialisant sous la forme de rapports, états, lettres impériales et comptes-rendus de conseils…, mais également sous la plume de personnalités, agronomes ou notables corses, qui font entendre leurs voix. Ces dernières, s’efforçant de sensibiliser les autorités nationales impériales à la grande misère qui y sévit et la possibilité d’y remédier avec grand profit, ne cessent de plaider la cause de l’île en faisant valoir l’énorme potentiel dont elle dispose. Cet appel, entendu depuis la capitale, se concrétise par une volonté, affirmée par le pouvoir, d’ouvrir la Corse au progrès et des moyens seront donnés pour y lancer un véritable développement économique.

  • Preliminary Study Summary
    MAISON DE L’HISTOIRE DE FRANCE COMITÉ D’ORIENTATION SCIENTIFIQUE Juin 2011 PRELIMINARY STUDY SUMMARY The time has come to provide everyone with a cultural venue offering exhibitions, information and debate about France’s past: a Maison where people will be able to examine the cross-ferti - lisation of a word – “History” – and a name – “France” – whose social identity is changing rapidly in the early years of the 21 st century. This Centre will be none of the following: a training ground for French national identity, a cosy national feel-good venue, a parallel university, a forum, or a pulpit. Nor will it be a pageant of diversities and pluralities that masks the singular and continuous nature of this country. With its metaphorical doors and windows wide open, it will encourage the greatest possible number of people to familiarize themselves with documents, “footprints”, images, sounds, writings and ideas. It embodies the cultural ambition of fostering the diffusion and transmission of historical knowledge in order to question better how we live together, in the past and in the future and to understand and help others understand in order to gain access, through a culture of history, to some truths about oneself, other peoples, and the world at large. ///////// PRELIMINARY STUDY SUMMARY The Maison will be a place where everyone will be able to find the tools they need to gain an understanding, along with opportunities to probe the history of France. It is to be a “cultural institution created to present to the widest possible audience, in

Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Acknowledgements This thesis is dedicated to the late Professor Colin Platt (1934-2015), and those who go on being inspired by him and take heart from his encouragement. Without Colin Platt, this thesis would never have begun. Without the support of those in the present it would not have been completed. Thanks are due to my supervisor Professor Andrew Thompson for his thoroughness and insightful comments that have sharpened and focussed this work. Staffs at the University of Exeter Library, the British Library, the National Archives, the London Metropolitan Archives, City of London and the Archives Départementales La Corse du Sud have been particularly helpful at guiding me through the various systems, processes and care of resources to enable this thesis to benefit from a rich variety of sources. They are largely an unsung body of people but vital to researchers. Finally, I have taken advantage of the good nature of my husband, Graham, for proof reading numerous drafts and for accompanying me on our research visits to Corsica, although exploring Ajaccio whilst I spent hours in the archives was no great hardship.
