A Battle for Humor: Satire and Censorship in Le Bayard
View through CrossRef
Research on humorous and satiric publications during wartime is scarce, and studies of World War I humorous publications suggest that such publications emphasized patriotic material supporting the war and ridiculing the enemy. This study of a French weekly satiric publication, Le Bavard, indicates that, at least in France, the conventional assumption needs to be reassessed. Despite heavy censorship, Le Bavard criticized French politicians and lampooned government leadership. The protest-minded approach of Le Bavard may be attributed to its association with leftist politics.
