Marie Durand
Marie Durand (1711-1776) was a Huguenot heroine of the 18th Century who was imprisoned 38 years for her faith in the Tower of Constance in Aigue-Mortes (near Montpellier) in Southern France. French Protestant believers had suffered pursuit and persecution ever since 1685 when King Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes. The Edict of Nantes, passed in 1598, had given the Huguenots the right to freely practice their faith. But with its revocation 87 years later, intense persecution began.
Submission
February 2016
Dear Friends,
François is a professor of French literature at the Sorbonne who specializes in 19th century Symbolism. He is bored and a social recluse. Politically two parties have emerged as finalists for the 2020 presidential elections, the Nativist Front National and the Islamic Brotherhood. Fearing the worst, his Jewish girlfriend Myriam leaves him to live in Israel.
