AI Enhanced

This web page represents a digital archive catalog from Gallica, the digital library of the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF), displaying the chronological distribution of a historical publication spanning from 1934 to 1954. The page serves as a bibliographic index showing the availability of digitized issues across a 21-year period, with a comprehensive total of 7,139 individual issues archived and accessible online. The data reveals fascinating insights into the publication patterns and historical context of this periodical during a tumultuous period in French and world history. The collection spans the pre-World War II years (1934-1939), the war period (1940-1945), and the post-war reconstruction era (1946-1954). Notably, the publication maintained remarkable consistency, typically producing between 300-366 issues annually, suggesting it was likely a daily or near-daily publication. The lowest output occurs in 1945 with only 288 issues, possibly reflecting the disruptions of the war's end and liberation period, while 1952 shows the highest count with 366 issues, indicating a return to full operational capacity in the post-war years. From a historical and cultural perspective, this archive represents an invaluable primary source for researchers studying mid-20th century French society, politics, and daily life. The continuous publication through the German occupation (1940-1944) and the immediate post-liberation period makes this collection particularly significant for understanding French media during wartime, collaboration, resistance, and reconstruction periods. The systematic digitization and cataloging by the BnF demonstrates the institution's commitment to preserving and providing access to France's documentary heritage. The catalog's technical presentation, with its precise issue counts and year-by-year breakdown, reflects modern digital archival standards that facilitate scholarly research and public access. This type of detailed bibliographic organization allows researchers to identify specific time periods, track publication gaps that might indicate historical disruptions, and understand the scope of available primary source material. The Gallica platform's ARK (Archival Resource Key) identifier system ensures permanent access to this collection, making it a reliable resource for academic citation and long-term preservation of French cultural memory.
