Interesting discussion of French history and culture

Hi everyone, this is my first post on here - happy to join the community!

I wanted to share a link, about France in the 1960s. A professor of intellectual history picks the five books which he feels sums up the mood in the country searching for a fresh political alternative. So the list includes Sartre, Foucault, Godard etc. ( I didn't know Godard wasn't French, but Swiss).

The site also has a lot of other content about France this week - like classic French novels and Charles de Gualle.

Thanks
