Vichy Syndrome History and Memory in France Since 1944

From the Liberation purges to the Barbie trial, France has struggled with the memory of the Vichy experience: a memory of defeat, occupation, and repression. In this provocative study, Henry Rousso examines how this proud nation--a nation where reality and myth commingle to confound understanding--has dealt with les ann & eacutees noires. Specifally, he studies what the French have chosen to remember and what have chosen to conceal.Rousso, Henry is the author of 'Vichy Syndrome History and Memory in France Since 1944', published 1994 under ISBN 9780674935396 and ISBN 067493539X.
