Fruits d’une discipline militante et littéraire, ces carnets, livrés à la lecture sans médiation ni correction a posteriori, font alterner analyses politiques, témoignages et réflexions personnelles. L’ensemble propose les éléments d’une contre-histoire des années capitales du XXe siècle. Et on y retrouve à la fois les qualités d’écrivain de Victor Serge (finesse des portraits, description inspirée des villes et des paysages traversés) et l’originalité de ses analyses politiques (permanence de l’espérance socialiste malgré l’isolement et la défaite). De Bruxelles à Mexico, en passant par Paris et Marseille, Serge porte un regard lucide sur une période particulièrement dramatique : alors qu’il était « minuit dans le siècle », il fait la preuve qu’on peut ne jamais abdiquer devant la force brute ni renoncer à l’espérance socialiste.

Available for the first time, Victor Serge's intimate account of the last decade of his life gives a vivid look into the Franco-Russian revolutionary's life, from his liberation from Stalin's Russia to his "Mexico Years," when he wrote his greatest works. In 1936, Victor Serge—poet, novelist, and revolutionary—left the Soviet Union for Paris, the rare opponent of Stalin to escape the Terror. In 1940, after the Nazis marched into Paris, Serge fled France for Mexico, where he would spend the rest of his life. His years in Mexico were marked by isolation, poverty, peril, and grief; his Notebooks, however, brim with resilience, curiosity, outrage, a passionate love of life, and superb writing. Serge paints haunting portraits of Osip Mandelstam, Stefan Zweig, and “the Old Man” Trotsky; argues with André Breton; and, awaiting his wife’s delayed arrival from Europe, writes her passionate love letters. He describes the sweep of the Mexican landscape, visits an erupting volcano, and immerses himself in the country’s history and culture. He looks back on his life and the fate of the Revolution. He broods on the course of the war and the world to come after. In the darkest of circumstances, he responds imaginatively, thinks critically, feels deeply, and finds reason to hope. Serge’s Notebooks were discovered in 2010 and appear here for the first time in their entirety in English. They are a a message in a bottle from one of the great spirits, and great writers, of our shipwrecked time.

Escritos en francés, estos Diarios de un revolucionario —que ahora publicamos por primera vez en español— abarcan en gran parte la etapa mexicana, aunque también incluyen fragmentos de la segunda mitad de los años treinta. Poseen un enorme valor, no solamente porque ofrecen una suerte de bitácora de la vida del escritor y revolucionario francorusobelga, sino porque contienen una mina de reflexiones utilísimas acerca de la Unión Soviética, la disidencia, la evolución de la guerra, la vida cultural y política de México, así como sobre la precaria situación de los refugiados antitotalitarios, grupo del cual nuestro autor formaba parte, además de numerosos ejercicios de introspección psicológica y literaria.

Victor Serge (1890–1947) played many parts, as he recounted in his indelible Memoirs of a Revolutionary. The son of anti-czarist exiles in Brussels, Serge was a young anarchist in Paris; a syndicalist rebel in Barcelona; a Bolshevik in Petrograd; a Comintern agent in Central Europe; a comrade of Trotsky’s; a friend of writers like Andrei Bely, Boris Pilnyak, and André Breton; a prisoner of Stalin; a dissident Marxist in exile in Mexico... Like Serge’s extraordinary novels, A Blaze in a Desert: Selected Poems bears witness to decades of revolutionary upheavals in Europe and the advent of totalitarian rule; many of the poems were written during the “immense shipwreck” of Stalin’s ascendancy. In poems datelined Petrograd, Orenburg, Paris, Marseille, the Caribbean, and Mexico, Serge composed elegies for the fallen—as well as prospective elegies for the living who, like him, endured prison, exile, and bitter disappointment in the revolutions of the first half of the twentieth century: Night falls, the boat pulls in, stop singing. Exile relights its captive lamps on the shore of time. Throughout A Blaze in a Desert, Serge draws on the heritage of late- and post-Symbolist writers like Verhaeren, Rictus, Apollinaire, Blok, and Bely—themselves authors of messages of a more general resistance by the human spirit—to express the anguish of the failure of the Russian Revolution and to search out glimmers of hope in the ruins of the Second World War. A Blaze in a Desert comprises Victor Serge’s sole published book of poetry, Resistance (1938), his unpublished manuscript Messages (1946), and his last poem, “Hands” (1947).

Early in World War II, thousands of refugees traveled from France to Vichy-controlled Martinique, en route to safer shores in North, Central, and South America. While awaiting transfer, the exiles formed influential ties--with one another and with local black dissidents. As Eric T. Jennings shows, what began as expulsion became a kind of rescue.

'A beautiful book about the best minds of a generation and the devastation of war - an outrageous voyage from the past that speaks eloquently to our present' Deborah Levy March 1941. A converted cargo ship, the Paul-Lemerle, left Marseille on a voyage to the Caribbean, fleeing Vichy France and the devastation of the war. The ship was filled with immigrants from the East, exiled Spanish Republicans, Jews, stateless persons and decadent artists. Among them were Claude Lévi-Strauss, the painter Wifredo Lam, the writers Anna Seghers and André Breton, and the Russian revolutionary Victor Serge. Can we know the taste of pineapple from listening to travellers' tales? asks Bosc in the follow-up to his bestselling debut. Can we ever feel the sensation of history? Mixing the documentary techniques of history, the imaginative leaps of fiction and the cool analysis of the essay, Bosc takes us from Marseille to Casablanca to Martinique and on to New York, to tell an evocative story of migration, cultural crisis and the intellectual cost of the rise of fascism.

This book recuperates the important history that Haitian thought around Vodou possession has had in French critical theory. The author takes the period of the 1930s and ‘40s, as the centerfold of a more complex network of relations that places Haiti as one of the pivots of a more expanded intellectual conversation around “possession,” which links anthropology, literature, psychoanalysis, human rights, and visual arts in France, Haiti, and the United States. Benedicty argues that Haiti as the anthropological other serves as a kick-starter to an entire French-based theoretical apparatus (Breton, Leiris, Bataille, de Certeau, Foucault, and Butler), but once up and running, its role as catalyst is forgotten and the multiple iterations of the anthropological other are cast back into the net of Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s “Savage slot.” The book offers the reader unfamiliar with Haiti a comprehensive interdisciplinary study of twentieth and early twenty-first century Haitian thought, including a detailed timeline of important moments in the intellectual history that connects Haiti to France and the United States. The first part of the book is about global dispossessions in the first decades of the twentieth century; the second part points to how the narratives of ‘Haiti’ are intimately linked to a Franco-U.S.-American discursive space, constructed over the course of the twentieth century, a discursive order that has conflated the representation of ‘Haiti’ with an understanding of Vodou primarily as an occult religion, and not as a philosophical system. The third and fourth parts of the book examine how the novels of René Depestre, Jean-Claude Fignolé, and Kettly Mars have revisited the notion of possession since the fall of the Duvalier dictatorships.

Etude historique et critique de la perception des événements survenus en France, depuis le Front populaire de 1936 jusqu'à la libération et le plan Marshall en 1947, par les lecteurs de magazines et de grands quotidiens américains. Quatrième de couverture: S'appuyant sur des réseaux de correspondants expérimentés, les journaux et agences de presse américains ont couvert et commenté l'actualité française des années 1930 et 1940, marquées par la défaite et l'occupation du pays. L'auteur se propose d'étudier la perception immédiate de ces événements dramatiques par les lecteurs des magazines et des grands quotidiens, entre 1936, année du Front populaire et de la première réélection de Roosevelt, et 1947, celle du plan Marshall. Regards croisés et jeux de miroirs façonnent une nouvelle image de la France aux yeux des Américains et contribuent, en retour, à la construction de leur propre identité : le Front populaire est un "New Deal à la Blum", l'océan Atlantique une "ligne Maginot". Dans les systèmes de représentations, le traumatisme de la "chute" de juin 1940 laisse une trace durable. À travers un parcours de douze ans, il s'agit donc de répondre à deux questions étroitement liées l'une à l'autre : en quoi l'image de la France dans la presse américaine a-t-elle changé entre 1936 et 1947 ? Que révèlent ses métamorphoses sur les Américains, qui passent dans le même temps du repli isolationniste aux responsabilités de l'après-guerre ? Cet ouvrage, qui restitue le discours pluriel et parfois contradictoire de la presse, nous fait ainsi entrer au coeur de la fabrique d'images et de stéréotypes sur la France et les Français
