''Gringoire'' ((:ɡʁɛ̃ɡwaʁ)) was a political and literary weekly newspaper in France, founded in 1928 by Horace de Carbuccia (son-in-law of Jean Chiappe, the prefect of police involved in the Stavisky Affair), Georges Suarez and Joseph Kessel.〔Myriam Anissimov, ''Romain Gary, Le Caméléon'', éditions Folio, 2006, chapitre 19, p. 145.〕 It was one of the great inter-war weekly French papers, following a formula started by ''Candide'', and taken up not only by ''Gringoire'' but also by the left-wing papers ''Vendredi'' and ''Marianne''. The style involved according significant space to politics, having a high-quality literature page, having ''grand reportages'' and ''grand feuilletons'' (in this case with Pierre Drieu La Rochelle and Francis Carco), satirical cartoons (the main illustrator of ''Gringoire'' was Roger Roy), and a simple presentation. ==From the centre-right to right-wing nationalism== At the outset ''Gringoire'' was a pamphlet, the principal trait of a paper called a ''macédoine'', a term coined by Carbuccia himself. Marxism and the left in general were its favourite targets. Initially, however, it was not a paper of the extreme-right; it was content to represent the right-wing fringe of the ''Union nationale'' led by Raymond Poincaré, with a veteran-like style which it retained throughout. After 6 February 1934, following the general trend toward radicalisation, ''Gringoire'' became antiparliamentarian. The influence of Action française made itself felt. In October 1935, ''Gringoire'' declared itself against the international sanctions imposed on Italy following its invasion of Abyssinia. For a long time the paper had showed itself favourable to Italian fascism, as well as to the Salazar regime in Portugal. It also developed an increasingly marked Anglophobia. Henri Béraud, the paper's editor, published in the 11 October 1935 issue an article titled "Do we have to reduce England to slavery?". From 1930 the paper, at first Germanophobe and nationalist, slid towards a clear hostility to war, and even to any military intervention in Europe. An example is the novelist Romain Gary who published two novels in ''Gringoire'': "The Storm" (15 February 1935) and "A Small Woman" (24 May 1935), under his real name Roman Kacew. When the journal, "having turned strongly to the right, then to the extreme-right" introduced fascist and anti-semitic ideas, Gary stopped sending his writings despite the significant compensation he received, of 1000 francs per 6-column page.〔Myriam Anissimov, ''Romain Gary, Le Caméléon'', éditions Folio, 2006, chap. 19, p. 145 and p. 147).〕 In his essay on W.B. Yeats, George Orwell cites the predominance of advertising by clairvoyants in Gringoire as an example of the affinity of mysticism with right-wing politics. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gringoire (newspaper)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
