| Summary: | This article is devoted to the paradoxical role that Le Nouvel Observateur and its editor-in-chief played in the construction of a Gaullian myth between 1964 and 1970. This weekly newspaper was, however, partly built against General de Gaulle: the founder of the Fifth Republic therefore appeared in it, logically enough, as an increasingly rejected figure until his departure from power. But in Jean Daniel’s editorials, behind the sometimes very strong condemnations, there is actually a barely concealed admiration for the President. This unmentionable Gaullism often led him to contradict or even oppose the ideas defended by the magazine he had co-founded. During these six years, Le Nouvel Observateur has thus offered the image of a complex, polyphonic editorial object, with an elusive identity, since tensions constantly appear between the political orientation desired by the newspaper and the articles of its first editor. |
