Law Books
Here are some comments on partisan responses that have been made to me in NR of 6 January. Angela Koster you write "the wonder and the sense of injustice felt by reading the words of Jacques Sergeant." One should not exaggerate, but still I expect that one shows me that I was wrong to denounce this practice punishable under the code of ethics. For ages, Gerard Simmat borrows shame in books. Gilles Laville can testify with photos plagiarized in his book on Chasseneuil. Thierry Thomas in response to Jacques Marsac speaks of "virtuoso of the scan or copy and paste the Stakhanovite." All this fuss over a member of the Society of Authors of Poitou-Charentes is disorder. You write: "Check the papers is becoming increasingly difficult." In this case, it was quite easy for me to ask permission, especially since Ms. Marks Caplane had already met and that the interview went well, in a good climate. For me such a request would not result in a refusal, just a very legitimate need to cite sources and that the legend is well consistent with the document. Besides Richard Christian part of the "Society of Authors of Poitou-Charentes" uses in his book "the air war 1939-1945 in Vienna" (page 32) a picture of my book "The Country Loudunais." But he notes his sources and especially do not deform the caption "Loudun, bombing of the station, June 18, 1940" (Ed. Alan Sutton). It's still more correct!. It is an obligation to search for sources and especially not to the legends wrong. Jean-Paul remembers Dubout Simmat Gerard advised him to consult the directory of Commons at the time when we were running out of legend and text for the book "Memory in Images" Sutton Publishing. "You put the name of the mayor, the teacher and so on. ". This is not surprising that we find in his law books many fanciful legends. For example it is noted below the photo of the book on page 78 Loudunais "the card representing the outstanding bowlers to Lyonnaises Chauleries in the courtyard of the hotel Arnault, published in early 1920." I went there with Jacques Albert and we were able to report the identification of the authors was incorrect. The hotel Arnault was about 300 m, opposite the hotel Bellan. In fact, players pose in front of balls coffee Baranger. We never played the ball to Lyon Chauleries. It is wrong to write that this map was published "in the early 1920". This is a map of 1910 the photographer Loudunais Dando-Berry. In 1920, he left that city and then held his shop to Bordeaux. Its scope was rather the Charente-Maritime. In the same book on page 116 and in the book "Remember the Vienna" on page 49 is very poorly explained! In fact, the Free-Poitou was created after the release of Poitiers, September 6, 1944, replacing the Central and Western newspaper, newspaper employee said. "Regional Daily Independent, writing and administration are located then at 7, rue Victor-Hugo in Poitiers." There was a sheet that circulated under the mantle during the occupation by Louis Renard (resistant) had called the Free Poitou but it was not a newspaper published every day as I know. So we can not say as claimed Gerard Simmat the Poitou Free newspaper was founded during the war. Gerard Simmat attributed to the Bruneau-Rossignol paternity log Loudun on 1 May 1836. Sorry it's still wrong! The printer-Bruneau Rossignol created at that time the newspaper of the Borough of Loudun. His successor Ernest MAZEREAU founded August 15, 1858, the Journal of Loudun the last issue appeared on Sunday 1 August 1937. Page 115 of Loudun and page 50 of his book Remembering the Vienna, it says "The city will be officially released September 3, 1944, with the guerrillas to Scévolles." The truth is that the guerrillas entered the town on September 1 to 18 hours. There was no one in the German city. There is absolutely no fighting. On Sunday, September 3 was the Liberation Day. Jacques Marzac, I do not know me so denigrates outrageous. I leave him responsible for his words but I will add that to a teacher, it's not very proud of him. He writes about the graphic material, "Old photograph that person be considered as being strictly personal." This statement is stupid on his part, because it's been 108 years old this year that the photograph is in the family. I emphasize that this is a photograph, not a postcard, to my knowledge, has never been published and represents a threshing scene with my great-mother and my grandparents. About this family photograph, Gerard Simmat, the "king of the scan," after having scanned, used in the book on "Loudunais" on page 171 and in his book on page 73. But to perhaps a bit of zeal, he is Church Street and in the 1930s!. In fact, my grandmother noted on back of photo: Champou, June 26, 1904
