  • Marxism and the French Left

    Studies on Labour and Politics in France, 1830-1981

    by Tony Judt ...

    The Croix de Feu and the Parti Social Français, 1927-1945

  • Far-Right Politics in Europe

    by Jean-Yves Camus, Nicolas Lebourg ...
    Translated by Jane Marie Todd ...
    In Europe today, staunchly nationalist parties such as France’s National Front and the Austrian Freedom Party are identified as far-right movements, though supporters seldom embrace that label.

  • Historical Dictionary of French Literature

    by John Flower ...
    Series series Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts
    Almost all of us know French literature, even if we don’t know French, because it is probably the second largest and certainly the most translated into English. And, even if we don’t read, we would have seen film and television versions (think Count of Monte-Cristo) and even a musical rendition (Les Mis). So this is a particularly interesting volume in the literature series, since it covers French ... Read more
