Tribune Féminine



Tribune Féminine: Jeanne Laurence, Feminism and the French Resistance (1944 – 1948)



Project Overview





This project has three parts:

1. I translated over 100 Tribunes Féminines articles from French to English.

2. I made a documentary film as a visual narrative of Tribunes Féminines in the story of Jeanne Laurence’s life.

3. I wrote a research essay to contextualize Tribunes Féminines in French feminism and World War II.



1. Translations



French to English





The Tribune Féminine newspaper articles are the primary source and basis for the project. Please contact me if you are interested in the original articles and translations. I would like to make them available to scholars and researchers. The original articles and translations are also available at the Gould Academy library.

3. Research Essay



TRIBUNE FÉMININE: Jeanne Laurence, the French Resistance and Feminism (1944 – 1948)





For the final part of the project, I wrote a research essay to contextualize Tribune Féminine in the tumult of World War II and French feminism. The period 1944 – 1948 was a critical time for women and for France. Political and social change were intertwined as World War II came to an end and France entered a period of post-war rebuilding.
