A political history of writing in France during the interwar
period and under the Occupation. Rubinstein argues that the
prevalent leftist depiction of the ENS-the training ground "par
excellence" of the French intellectual-is symptomatically
inaccurate in its repression of the role of writing in the
construction of the political subject. Through a deconstructive
reading of the ENS as text, Rubinstein resituates the ENS's
intellectual discourse within the literary politics of the right.
"Normalien" discourse is seen to articulate analogous concepts of
superiority, hierarchy, and exclusion. This twinning of principles
of political and textual authority is developed through analyses of
publishing networks of the thirties and the post-war trial
sentencing of intellectuals.
