Denonced in October 1941 as a leftist agitator by the Vichy police, the poet René Char took refuge in the southern zone, where, from early 1942 onwards, he was active in the Resistance.
It was in the Basses-Alpes, and under the name of Captain Alexandre, that he led his fight against the Hitlerian darkness for the duration of the war. Refusing any publication in “this time of damned algebra... these notes were written in tension, anger, fear, emulation, disgust, cunning, stealthy recollection, the illusion of the future, friendship, love ... They mark the resistance of humanism aware of its duties, discreet about its virtues, wishing to reserve the inaccessible to be freely roamed by the imagination of its suns, and decided to pay the price for it. A fire of dry grass might just as easily been their publisher...”.
In April 1946, Gallimard published the Feuillets d’Hypnos.
