Portrait souvenir. A program produced by Roger Stéphane and Roland Darbois, directed by Jacques Demeure. Program broadcast on RTF on 13.05.1963. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speakers: Julien Gracq Dominique Aury Henri Guillemin Claude Roy Louis-Martin Chauffier ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roger Stéphane offers a portrait of Chateaubriand, "a man more faithful to the image of loyalty than to loyalty itself". Excerpts from the work are read by François Chaumette, on images of the places described by the author: Saint Malo, Combourg, La vallée aux loups. Julien Gracq, Dominique Aury, Louis-Martin Chauffier analyze the importance of the places: Brittany, the United States, England; themes of the Revolution, religion, diplomacy, the Academy, the fight against Napoleon. The views of Henri Guillemin and Claude Roy diverge on the reality of the events described by the "master of the subjective discovery of the world": "you have to read I read when he writes I saw".
