It was really fun (and unsual -- in a good way!) to record an episod of Garlic and Pearl with Muriel Zagha about the history of Institut français du Royaume-Uni In the episod we touched on: -French migrants to the UK -French governenesses, women and adult education in the early 20th century -art deco architecture and French art in the UK -London and the French resistance during WW2 (with a necessary dose of antigaullism through a discussion of Denis Saurat, the first intellectual to have rallied Charles de Gaulle) -The WW1 and Belgian origin of the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle de Londres You can find the episod on the usual platforms, including here https://lnkd.in/eHmbWCmB Thanks ever so much for having me Muriel!
