Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À l’été 1940, des millions de Français se mettent à écrire, à leurs maires, sous-préfets et préfets, mais aussi à des organismes internationaux et jusqu’au pape, pour savoir ce que sont devenus leur père, leur époux, leurs enfants. En six semaines à peine, entre le 13 mai et le 22 juin 1940, la défaite militaire se transforme en débâcle et la captivité concerne désormais presque deux millions de soldats détenus par les Allemands en territoire français. Captivité transitoire, première étape d’un emprisonnement long, parfois douloureux, dans le Reich, captivité fondatrice aussi et mémoire oubliée de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Au nord de la Loire comme le long de l’Atlantique, la France se couvre de camps de prisonniers, les Frontstalags. Véritable défi logistique, social et politique, la captivité devient un enjeu central, pour les familles qui attendent, pour le régime de Vichy qui cherche à affirmer sa souveraineté comme pour les autorités allemandes qui imposent leur ordre de vainqueur, mais aussi pour les instances internationales, du Comité international de la Croix-Rouge à l’ambassade des États-Unis, en passant par le Vatican. Donner à voir, faire ressentir, amener à comprendre ce qu’a été une captivité française en France, celle de 1940 : tel est l’objectif de cet ouvrage collectif qui varie les échelles et les points de vue pour proposer une histoire au carrefour de la défaite, de l’Occupation et de la Collaboration – un essai qui, à partir d’archives françaises et étrangères ainsi que de nombreux documents iconographiques, mêle relations internationales et quotidien à hauteur d’homme.

Download or read book Hostages of Empire written by Sarah Ann Frank and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hostages of Empire combines a social history of colonial prisoner-of-war experiences with a broader analysis of their role in Vichy’s political tensions with the country’s German occupiers. The colonial prisoners of war came from across the French Empire, they fought in the Battle for France in 1940, and they were captured by the German Army. Unlike their French counterparts, who were taken to Germany, the colonial POWs were interned in camps called Frontstalags throughout occupied France. This decision to keep colonial POWs in France defined not only their experience of captivity but also how the French and German authorities reacted to them. Hostages of Empire examines how the entanglement of French national pride after the 1940 defeat and the need for increased imperial control shaped the experiences of 85,000 soldiers in German captivity. Sarah Ann Frank analyzes the nature of Vichy’s imperial commitments and collaboration with its German occupiers and argues that the Vichy regime actively improved conditions of captivity for colonial prisoners in an attempt to secure their present and future loyalty. This French “magnanimity” toward the colonial prisoners was part of a broader framework of racial difference and hierarchy. As such, the relatively dignified treatment of colonial prisoners must be viewed as a paradox in light of Vichy and Free French racism in the colonies and the Vichy regime’s complicity in the Holocaust. Hostages of Empire seeks to reconcile two previously rather distinct histories: that of metropolitan France and that of the French colonies during World War II.

Download or read book Resistance and Liberation written by Douglas Porch and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-31 with total page 833 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Resistance and Liberation, Douglas Porch continues his epic history of France at war. Emerging from the debâcle of 1940, France faced the quandary of how to rebuild military power, protect the empire, and resuscitate its global influence. While Charles de Gaulle rejected the armistice and launched his offshore crusade to reclaim French honor within the Allied camp, defeatists at Vichy embraced cooperation with the victorious Axis. The book charts the emerging dynamics of la France libre and the Alliance, Vichy collaboration, and the swelling resistance to the Axis occupation. From the campaigns in Tunisia and Italy to Liberation, Douglas Porch traces how de Gaulle sought to forge a French army and prevent civil war. He captures the experiences of ordinary French men and women caught up in war and defeat, the choices they made, the trials they endured, and how this has shaped France's memory of those traumatic years.

Download or read book Reinventing French Aid written by Laure Humbert and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laure Humbert explores how humanitarian aid in occupied Germany was influenced by French politics of national recovery and Cold War rivalries. She examines the everyday encounters between French officials, members of new international organizations, relief workers, defeated Germans and Displaced Persons, who remained in the territory of the French zone prior to their repatriation or emigration. By rendering relief workers and Displaced Persons visible, she sheds lights on their role in shaping relief practices and addresses the neglected issue of the gendering of rehabilitation. In doing so, Humbert highlights different cultures of rehabilitation, in part rooted in pre-war ideas about 'overcoming' poverty and war-induced injuries and, crucially, she unearths the active and bottom-up nature of the restoration of France's prestige. Not only were relief workers concerned about the image of France circulating in DP camps, but they also drew DP artists into the orbit of French cultural diplomacy in Germany.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extremely rare (possibly the only) book-length account of a Soviet penal unit in World War II Gritty, intense style conveys the brutality of war on the Eastern Front Composed of convicts--soldiers who conducted "unauthorized retreats," former Soviet POWs deemed untrustworthy, and Gulag prisoners--the Red Army's penal units received the most difficult, dangerous assignments, such as breaking through the enemy's defenses. So punishing was life in these units that officers in regular formations threatened to send recalcitrant troops to penal battalions. Alexander Pyl'cyn led his penal unit through the Soviets' massive offensive in the summer of 1944, the Vistula-Oder operation into eastern Germany, and the bitter assault on Berlin in 1945. He survived the war, but 80 percent of his men did not.
