Robert Brasillach

Jesse Russell

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Robert Brasillach (31 March 1909 - 6 February 1945) was a French author and journalist. Brasillach is best known as the editor of Je suis partout, a nationalist newspaper which came to advocate various fascist movements and supported Jacques Doriot. After the liberation of France in 1944 he was executed following a trial and Charles de Gaulle's express refusal to grant him a pardon. Brasillach was executed for advocating collaborationism. The execution remains a controversial subject because Brasillach was executed for "intellectual crimes," rather than military or political actions.
