TI - When the "limb" branches away from the tree: the case of French Canadian literature (19341948)
AB - Robert Charbonneau, director of La Nouvelle Relève, journalist and writer, at the end of the Second World War, faces off with, to his dismay, many renown French authors, triggering a real quarrel. The various assertions of Parisian intellectuals encourage the editor of L’Arbre (The Tree) to start a work of resistance. With traces of "refusal" and insubordination, his articles address the literary issue from the practical, concrete and policy points of view, taking into consideration the editorial apparatus in its entirety. The man thus resists atypically because he defends the creation of the authors of his country, by adopting the concept of the Americanism of their origin. By his actions, he demonstrates that the French-Canadian production has a double culture: educational francization and de facto Americanism, putting aside the colonial conception of culture and cultural supremacy of France.
