Autorenporträt
Daniel Hal vy was a French historian born on December 12, 1872, in Paris, to Ludovic Hal vy. Although of Jewish heritage, he was raised as a Protestant. He studied at the Lyc e Condorcet, where he formed a lasting friendship with Marcel Proust. Known more among social historians than literary critics, he is recognized for his work Essai sur l'acc l ration de l'histoire, which examined the intensifying pace of historical events. He also authored Degas parle..., a reflective piece based on conversations with painter Edgar Degas, a close friend of his family. This book was crafted from journal entries kept during his youth and later completed in old age, eventually translated into English. He co-founded the Universit populaire with Andr Spire, promoting intellectual cooperation and social education. Early in his life, he supported the Dreyfus cause, but after the political unrest of February 6, 1934, he lost faith in parliamentary democracy and declared himself aligned with the extreme right. Though he opposed Fascism and Nazism, he later supported Marshal P tain s Vichy government. Hal vy died in Paris on February 4, 1962, leaving behind a legacy that blends historical insight with political contradiction.
