Marianne (French pronunciation: [maʁjan]) was a weekly Paris-based French illustrated magazine that appeared in France, between 1932 and 1940.[1][2][3]

History

edit

Marianne was founded on 26 October 1932 by Gaston Gallimard and edited under director Emmanuel Berl,[4][5] until 1937.[6] It began being published under the umbrella corporation ZED, which had been established in 1928.[7] The magazine was sold in January 1937,[2] to Raymond Patenôtre and relaunched by André Cornu[8][9] in 1938.[10] It described itself as the Grand hebdomadaire littéraire illustré ("Great illustrated literary weekly").[2]

Marianne was said to be a 'Paris Liberal Weekly' publication,[11] and a "weekly of French interests and ideas."[12]

When it was relaunched in 1938, Patenôtre let it remain politically slightly left of centre.[13] Among the notable contributors was Léon Werth, who regularly contributed to the magazine.[14]

Marianne was noted also for its anti-Nazi illustrations between 1938 and 1940,[13][15][16][17] including by Jacob Kjeldgaard, Danish journalist photographer.[18] Publication of Marianne was suspended by the Nazi-collaborating Vichy France regime[19][20][21] on 4 September 1940.[12] The Vichy France regime had already begun censoring[22] portions of it, at least from 14 August of that year.[23]
