Ethnologue, résistante et déportée, médiatrice pendant la guerre d'Algérie, Germaine Tillion est devenue en France un symbole de résistance et de justice C'est à cette trajectoire que l'auteur s'intéresse, interprétant la vie de cette figure du XXe siècle en la situant dans son contexte historique et historiographique. Ainsi, Germaine Tillion, une femme-mémoire n'est pas une biographie conventionnelle. D'un point de vue chronologique, le livre ne couvre pas l'ensemble de la vie de Germaine Tillion ; il commence en décembre 1934, lors du départ de Germaine Tillion et Thérèse Rivière, deux jeunes ethnologues, dans la région des Aurès en Algérie, et s'achève avec la fin de la guerre d'Algérie en 1962. On ne trouvera pas ici d'analyse familiale ou psychologique de l'histoire de Germaine Tillion. Il s'agit plutôt de montrer un parcours, une trajectoire d'engagement, avec ses méandres et ses contradictions, au sein d'un siècle tourmenté. Enfin, l'auteur s'attache à analyser la médiatisation contemporaine de Germaine Tillion, tentant de comprendre en quoi ce phénomène s'intègre dans un long travail de mémoire collective.

This study is a biography of the once famous and bestselling Flemish poet Alice Nahon (1896-1933). Her rise to fame began shortly after the publication of her first volume of poems, Vondelingkens, in 1920. At the same time she was mythologized by her entourage (first and foremost by her father, who was also her publisher). Nahon herself - although sometimes a bit reluctantly - also contributed to her own muth, which depicted her as a sickly, melancholic, half-saintly young woman who wrote simple, touching and sincere poetry. However, that she was not a 'saint', as her entourage would have us believe, became apparent following the publications of, among other, Eric Defoort (1991) and Ria van den Brandt (1996). Nonetheless it was clear that more and thorough research was needed to straighten out some facts. Based on such research, this book shows that Alice Nahon was far from a saint. She was a woman, who after having needlessly spent more than seven years in sanatoriums, grabbed her freedom and went in search of happiness. The story of her life is one of literary success and financial distress, of numerous love affairs and permanent health problems, of living to the full and dying young.
