description | In this article, Ford Madox Ford’s writings about Provençal culinary practices are considered in the perspective of the nationalist ideas, which had become popular in France at the turn of the 20th century. A comparison between Ford and French writers such as Maurice Barrès and Charles Maurras leads to the emergence of different conceptions of the land and helps understand the former’s attachment to Provence, as well as his humanity and his generosity. This article also discusses right-wing attitudes to the land in Great Britain during the Twenties and Thirties. |
