Its name was invented by the literary critic Bernard Frank, who referred to several people by the ironic name of "hussards" (French for "hussars") in an article published in December 1952 in the journal Les Temps modernes, titled "Grognards et hussards" ("Old Guards and Hussars"). Frank chose that name partly because of Roger Nimier's novel The Blue Hussar (Le Hussard bleu).
The Hussards were advocates of conservatism in general, and often of the monarchist party Action Française (AF) in particular. Almost all of the Hussards later participated with the Cahiers de la Table Ronde, renamed La Table Ronde, a review created for the purpose of contesting the predominance of the publication Les Temps modernes and edited by Roland Laudenbach to which famous writers such as François Mauriac, Jean Giono or Jean Paulhan contributed.
