Emmanuel Macron paid tribute today to Claude Lanzmann, who died the day before, a "scientist and artist", "in love with truth", whose look "has built our era", and of which France "will keep the memory "of the" infinite wealth "of existence. "Claude Lanzmann wrote in his kaleidoscopic memoirs, The Patagonian Hare (Gallimard, 2009) that" One hundred lives [le] would not tire ". It may be that there have been more, lived, lived or dreamed, present or past, and it is the infinite richness of this existence that France will keep the memory ", responded the President of the Republic in a statement, sending his sincere condolences to his family and loved ones.
He recalls that "this great living had as companion of road, omnipresent, the death", that of his sister, his son, and "of all these strangers, deported from the death camps, whose traces he found and set up the tomb in the monumental Shoah (1985) ", a" labyrinthine narrative ". "It is in the hollow of this constant and paradoxical confrontation that Claude Lanzmann," scholar and artist "(in the words of Pierre Vidal-Naquet), has developed a love of truth and is sometimes carried away by his pbadions. This look will have built our era. "Filmmaker, director of the monumental" Shoah ", writer, philosopher and journalist, Claude Lanzmann died Thursday at his home in Paris at the age of 92, after having crossed the twentieth century with the will irreducible to testify and to fight for the causes that he considered right.
