  • L’Étrange défaite
    Marc Bloch
    Ces pages seront-elles jamais publiées ? Je ne sais. Il est probable, en tout cas, que, de longtemps, elles ne pourront être connues, sinon sous le manteau, en dehors de mon entourage immédiat. Je me suis cependant décidé à les écrire. L’effort sera rude : combien il me semblerait plus commode de céder aux conseils de la fatigue et du découragement! Mais un témoignage ne vaut ...

  • Apologie pour l’histoire ou Métier d’historien
    Marc Bloch
    Papa, explique moi donc à quoi sert l’histoire. Ainsi un jeune garçon qui me touche de près interrogeait, il y a peu d’années, un père historien. Du livre qu’on va lire, j’aimerais pouvoir dire qu’il est ma réponse. Car je n’imagine pas, pour un écrivain, de plus belle louange que de savoir parler, du même ton, aux doctes et aux écoliers. Mais une simplicité si haute est le ...

  • Les caractères originaux de l’Histoire rurale française
    Marc Bloch
    Ce serait jouer à d’aimables hôtes un très vilain tour que de rejeter sur eux une respon-sabilité dont l’auteur seul doit supporter le poids. Je puis bien dire cependant que si l’Institut pour l’Étude Comparative des Civilisations ne m’avait fait l’honneur, à l’automne dernier, de me demander quelques conférences, ce livre n’eût probablement jamais été écrit. Un historien aver...
