Abstract
Introduced in France by the House of Anjou, becomed dukes of Lorraine in 1431, the double cross was eventually adopted as the emblem of Duchy of Lorraine and hoisted during the campaign led with support of Charles the Seventh and Joan of Arc against the English. After the incorporation of Lorrain to Prussia following the 1870 war, the cross of Lorraine became a symbol of memory and resistance of France éternelle, but also the emblem of the Action Française against the legitimate government of the Third Republic. The «croix à double traverse» resurfaced in June 1940 when it was adopted as the emblem of France combattante of General de Gaulle to be opposed to the Nazi Swastika, to the Vichy Francisque, to the republican symbols of France (the Marianne and the Coq Gaulois) and the Hammer and Sickle of the French Communist Party.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
