作者: Juliette Adam

Juliette Adam, an influential French author and fervent patriot, etched her presence in the literary and political circles of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Born Juliette Lamber on October 4, 1836, in Verberie, Oise, she became notable for her passionate writings that often intertwined with her strong political views, particularly concerning the Franco-Prussian War and its aftermath. Her literary works, like “The Schemes of the Kaiser, ” showcase her astuteness in critiquing the political maneuvers of the time, underpinning her as a vital anti-German propagandist during the crucial years preceding the World War I. Her engagement in epistolary format and commentary style writing in “La Nouvelle Revue, ” a periodical she founded in 1879, gave voice to her advocacy for a strong allyship between France and Russia, intended to counteract German imperial ambitions. In her latter years, Juliette Adam”s work did not lose its vigor; her prose continued to reflect a robust and unyielding spirit until her passing on August 23, 1936, leaving behind an enduring legacy as a prolific literary and political figure.
