This book is about how people behaved during the German occupation
of France during the Second World War, and more specifically about
how individuals from differeent social and political backgrounds
recorded and reflected on their experiences during and after these
tragic events. The book focuses in particular on the concepts of
treason and sacrifice, as they affected the behaviour of
individuals and groups and their relationship to the nation state.
An introductory overview, discussing problems of representation,
moral issues and the nature of collaboration and resistance, is
followed by contextualised case-studies in the areas of politics,
daily life, civil administration, paramilitary action, literature
and film. The figures examined are chosen not only because of their
representative or even iconic nature but also because most of them
left a record expressing their own vision of the occupation. This
is very much an interdisciplinary study, linking political,
historical, moral and cultural ideas.
