Sexual Crime, Religion and Masculinity in fin-de-siècle France: The Flamidien Affair : Genders and Sexualities in History
Autor Timothy Verhoevenen Limba Engleză Paperback – feb 2019
This
book
explores
a
vital
though
long-neglected
clash
between
republicans
and
Catholics
that
rocked
fin-de-siècle
France.
At
its
heart
was
a
mysterious
and
shocking
crime.
In
Lille
in
1899,
the
body
of
twelve-year-old
Gaston
Foveaux
was
discovered
in
a
school
run
by
a
Catholic
congregation,
the
Frères
des
Écoles
Chrétiennes.
When
his
teacher,
Frère
Flamidien,
was
charged
with
sexual
assault
and
murder,
a
local
crime
became
a
national
scandal.
The
Flamidien
Affair
shows
that
masculinity
was
a
critical
site
of
contest
in
the
War
of
Two
Frances
pitting
republicans
against
Catholics.
For
republicans,
Flamidien’s
vow
of
chastity
as
well
as
his
overwrought
behaviour
during
the
investigation
made
him
the
target
of
suspicion;
Catholics
in
turn
constructed
a
rival
vision
of
masculinity
to
exonerate
the
accused
brother.
Both
sides
drew
on
the
Dreyfus
Affair
to
make
their
case.

“Verhoeven … showcase the continuing need for scholars to more fully integrate gender into their work, but also the need for historians of gender and sexuality to pay closer attention to religion. I highly recommend this book not only to gender historians, but also to anyone interested in the political and cultural history of the early French Third Republic.” (Andrew Israel Ross, French History, April 02, 2019)
