Resistance in France During World War II

8415 SW 80th St. Ocala, Florida
(352) 861-9751

Overview

In the past ten years, countless pieces of fiction have been published that take place in France during the Second World War (The Nightingale, The Alice Network, All the Light We Cannot See, The Paris Library, and so on). Many of these books focus on the heroic efforts of the French Resistance to rid the country of the Nazis. But the story of the Resistance is so much more complex than these books can convey.

Join this discussion to talk about the different forms of resistance, who resisted and why, what kinds of struggles they faced, and how the extreme-right played a surprising role in some of France's largest resistance networks. This presenter will be teaching from a remote location.
