Le Chant des Partisans

Product Information

Chacun sait… ce qu’il fait, Ami, si tu tombes : la quatrième strophe résume les risques encourus par les résistants qui en sont conscients, les sacrifices pour sauver le pays. Le Chant des Partisans ou Chant de la Libération, parfois surnommé La Marseillaise de la Libération, est l’ hymne de la Résistance française créé en 1943 par Joseph Kessel et son neveu Maurice Druon, sur une musique composée par Anna Marly de 1941, pendant l’Occupation allemande et lors de l’unification de la Résistance intérieure française par Jean Moulin, durant de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale. Douglas Martin reported for the New York Times that Zaret "loosely translated" the French lyrics, [1] and in his book Passion and Ambivalence: Colonialism, Nationalism, and International Law, author Nathaniel Berman compares excerpts of d'Astier's original French lyrics alongside, what he calls Zaret's English "‍(mis)translation", and notes that "the two versions reflect very different views"; that Zaret's English suggests that the partisans will "come from the shadows", while the French " nous rentrerons dans l'ombre", he states as "we will return to the shadow" (emphasis in quote) in English, suggests that the partisans – the Resistance – are "an artifact of the imperialism that dominates [them]", and that "reconciliation of society with its shadows is an illusion". [21] The Partisan on YouTube – Joan Baez – Come from the Shadows album version – provided to YouTube by Universal Music Group Marly's songs, singing and whistling on Radio Londres, were an inspiration to the French Resistance and earned her the credit " troubadour of the Resistance" from General de Gaulle, leader of the French Free Forces. [g 1] D'Astier was to become a Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur (English: Knight of the Legion of Honour), Compagnon de la Libération (English: Companion of the Liberation) and awarded the Croix de Guerre 1939–1945. [4] In Paris, 1945, Raoul Breton published the "La Complainte du partisan" sheet music with lyrics by d'Astier credited to Bernard, [12] his Resistance code name.

It was in London, in 1943, while Marly ran a hostel for French exiles, [8] that she wrote the anti-fascist anthem [9] "La Complainte du partisan", with lyrics by d'Astier, [10] going on to perform it and her other songs on Radio Londres (English: Radio London), the French Resistance radio operated by the Free French Forces, through the British Broadcasting Corporation. [g 1] [11] It was at this time that she also wrote "The March of the Partisans", with English lyrics by the Russian ambassador's daughter, Louba Krassine. The French exiles, Joseph Kessel and Maurice Druon, also resident in London, translated it into French for play on Radio Londres and it became " Le Chant des Partisans" (English: "Song of the Partisans"), an unofficial French anthem towards the end of the war.
