Careeredit
Bouly de Lesdain was a lawyer and diplomat.[1] He was the author of books about Mongolia and Tibet, based on his travelling experiences.[2] For example, he had led an expedition in the Gobi Desert in 1902.[3] He also published several books about Germany, including La Seconde paix, a 1931 treatise in which he called for closer Franco-German relations under the pseudonym of "Esdalin".[4]
Bouly de Lesdain joined L'Illustration as a contributor based in Basel, Switzerland, in 1939.[1] During World War II, he supported Germany and met Otto Abetz several times.[6] He complained that his antisemitic articles were turned down for publication by L'Illustration.[6] However, he subsequently became its political editor.[7]
Bouly de Lesdain co-organised an anti-Freemasonry conference with Jean Rivière in October 1940 at the Petit Palais.[8] It was attended by more than a million visitors,[7] and later shown in Rouen, Bordeaux, Lille and Nancy until the summer of 1942, when it was shown in Berlin, Germany.[8] Meanwhile, Bouly de Lesdain organised another conference, Exposition de la France européenne, held at the Grand Palais from 31 May to 31 October 1941.[9] By then, he openly criticised Marshal Philippe Pétain for failing to take a hard line on racial policy,[10] and he was engaged in "active collaborationism".[6]
In August 1944, he fled to the Sigmaringen Castle with members of the Vichy government, and he was the director of their radio communications.[1]
