Abstract

The article deals with the question of identitèmes, especially those containing the word “France”. The time frame studied, the Interwar period, is a fertile one for this type of production, due to the new geopolitical positioning of France after the Great War. From this perspective, the article studies the links between the roman national and language creation. The author analyzes sociological changes in order to explain how interwar identitèmes, such as “Douce France”, were able to fuel identity conflicts that are still active today.
