Extractions: Home Your account Current issue Archives ... That Sweet Enemy: The French and the British from the Sun King to the Present by Robert and Isabelle Tombs Knopf, 782 pp., $40.00 In January, a government document was discovered in the British national archives which, according to the Guardian aj_server = 'http://rotator.adjuggler.com/servlet/ajrotator/'; aj_tagver = '1.0'; aj_zone = 'nyrb'; aj_adspot = '147551'; aj_page = '0'; aj_dim ='147520'; aj_ch = ''; aj_ct = ''; aj_kw = ''; aj_pv = true; aj_click = ''; If the French were more sensitive, it was not just because Mollet had been the supplicant, but because his approach tapped into a sempiternal French response to Albion. Since Britain first challenged French power over three centuries ago, the two countries have, despite occasional challenges, been the two preeminent European powers, fighting for control of their own territory, the Continental mainland, and the known world beyond. Each has been suspicious of the other to the point of paranoia, irritated to the point of contempt, superior to the point of smugness. There have been spells of nervous parallelism, and even of mutual interest verging on respect. The mood in France at the moment is certainly depressed. Why are we doing so badly, a visiting writer is frequently asked; even the less loaded question "Why is British literature currently stronger than French?" manages to imply that this too could be fixed if France finally acknowledged Adam Smith. Sometimes this is routine morosity, the strain of masochism which is the counterpoise to French jauntiness. But now it is a little more serious. Luc Ferry, professor of philosophy at the University of Paris VII and former minister of education, described his recent discussions with rebellious left-wing students (if those two modifiers are necessary when referring to France). He himself, he specified, had never been a

SALON: The SALON Interview -- Julian Barnes
An interview conducted with Salon.com in 1996 concerning barnes s collection of short stories Cross Channel.
http://www.salon.com/weekly/interview960513.html

Extractions: Zach Trenholm J ulian Barnes is a thin, schoolmasterly man with English teeth and a quiet, prowling English drawl. Relaxed across a small, old couch on the second floor of the house he shares with his wife, literary agent Pat Kavanagh, in a politely Victorian neighborhood near Kentish Town in London, he listens carefully and explains himself with a tutor's gravity and consideration. He is, in fact, the product of three generations of schoolmasters. Behind us, and occupying most of the book-lined room, is the biggest pool table I've ever seen. Barnes' new book is a collection of short stories (his first, if you don't count "A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters," which shares certain properties with a book of short stories, but is, he insists, a novel). Called "Cross Channel," it's about the relationship between the English and the French. What with the advertisements for the EuroStar "chunnel" train posted all over town "London to Central Paris: Direct" and the "mad cow disease" scare on the continent, it's almost as if his publisher had custom-ordered a literary quickie to capitalize on current mass anxieties. But the book is actually a survey of several hundred years of cross-channel history in the form of ten impeccably constructed stories. "Cross Channel" emphasizes the reliable "otherness" of the French vs. beefeating, upright, English science and pragmatism but also a wistful longing for something another country provides, or is supposed to provide.

Worse for Fénéon, it established a template of profilism. Bonnard, Vuillard and Vallotton all depicted him in more or less the same pose: leaning forwards bent into a near impossible arrowhead in Vuillards rendition at his desk at the Revue Blanche , with left profile and monkish tonsure on display. Toulouse-Lautrec and van Dongen followed suit. Fénéon may not have liked it, but it was the more interesting view. In full face he looks as if he might be someone else: in old age he resembled Gide. Whereas the profile shot offered artists much more promising material: a big boney nose, prominent chin and, beneath it, the flowing tuft of a goatee. Highly individual and yet also, somehow, generic. This angle made people think of Uncle Sam or Abraham Lincoln (Apollinaire called him a faux Yankee); also of the Moulin Rouge dancer Valentin le Désossé, for whom he was sometimes mistaken. We had, it seems, he admitted, analogies that were flattering to neither of us.
A Key Lesson From Vietnam Is Lost If Enemy Body Counts Are Seen As A Measure Of

Barnes Posted 7/10/05 The body count has returned. It started slowly, but now it has become a regular occurrence. On June 21, for instance, American military officials in Afghanistan reported killing "approximately 40 enemies" southwest of Deh Chopan. On June 30, marines reported killing a single insurgent during "Operation Sword" in western Iraq. On July 2, the military reported that a patrol northeast of Kandahar "killed two enemies, wounded another, and captured two." On Independence Day, the military command in Baghdad reported detaining 100 "suspected terrorists." It was just over two years ago, during the initial Iraq invasion, when Pentagon officials repeatedly swore they would not get into the practice of counting enemy bodies. There is good reason for the aversion. Body counts became an obsession of the military brass in the Vietnam War and, as it turned out, a misleading indicator of how the war was going. Today, military historians say that obsession led to inflated numbers that in turn had a corrupting effect by undercutting trust, effectiveness, and morale. "It was a pretty useless statistic that did more harm than good," says Conrad Crane, director of the Military History Institute at the U.S. Army War College. "There was a sense in Vietnam that the officer corps lost its way. Once you lie about the body counts, what else do you lie about?"
Julian Barnes's A History Of The World
Literary critique of A History of the World in 10½ Chapters. By Brian Finney, Ph.D.
http://www.csulb.edu/~bhfinney/Barnes.html

Extractions: A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters The title of Julian Barnes' 1989 novel, A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapter s is at once playful and provocative. Its first half only differs from Sir Walter Raleigh's The History of the World in its substitution of an indefinite for a definite article. Like Raleigh's History it begins with Genesis. But unlike Raleigh, Barnes does not subscribe to a providential interpretation of history. Where Raleigh's was a monumental attempt to record the history of the world starting with the Creation, Barnes's modest book runs to some 300 pages and eschews any pretence of continuity or comprehensiveness. His is merely a history among many possible histories of the world. The second half of the title of Barnes's book describes a work that is absurdly brief for such a subject, while its provocative inclusion of a "1/2" chapter draws attention to itself. This half chapter, "Parenthesis," is the only section of the book to use a didactic, mildly professorial voice, with no apparent hint of irony or humor. It forms the same function that "The Preface" does in Raleigh's History in offering a rationale and apology. Interestingly both writers see history as necessarily fragmented. Barnes's entire book can be seen as a series of digressions from those events normally considered central to any historical account of the world. At the same time Barnes has insisted that this half-chapter is the one occasion in the book where he dispenses with the masks of the fiction writer and offers his personal truth, in much the way that El Greco is the only character in the "Burial of Count Orgaz" who looks out at the spectator, saying in effect, according to Barnes, "'I did this. You've got any complaints, look at me. [. . .] I'm responsible" (Stuart 15). Yet this rare moment of truthfulness is offered in the form of a digressiona digression in a work that is nothing but a series of digressions from the supposed mainstream of history.
