 Amazon.fr : Marc Bloch: A Life in History: Livres en anglais: Carole Fink   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
This first full-scale biography of Marc Bloch (1866-1944), French historian and Resistance martyr, is a moving, exemplary analysis of the intellectual as man of action.
Fink, professor at the University of North Carolina, sheds light on Bloch's close brush with death in WW I, his stormy disputes with Febvre and his desperate efforts to save his family from the Nazis.
Bloch pioneered in the writing of the "new" social and economic history and the history of mentalities; his best works (e.g., French Rural History, Feudal Society) merit reading today.

 Marc Bloch - Cambridge University Press
This is the first biography of Marc Bloch (1886-1944), historian, soldier in both world wars, and leader of the Resistance, who was captured, tortured, and died a heroic death.
Based largely on Bloch's private letters, diaries and papers, as well as on other unpublished documents, it traces the remarkable life of this French-Jewish patriot under the Third Republic.
As an historian, Bloch is perhaps best known for The Historian's Craft, an inspiring set of meditations on his life's work, and as co-founder of the now legendary journal Annales, which gave rise to a major school of historical writing.

 Marc Bloch - Cambridge University Press   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
A soldier in both world wars and leader of the Resistance who was captured, tortured, and died a heroic death, Bloch epitomizes the courage and conviction of an old-fashioned good citizen who recognized his obligation to defend France not only against foreign enemies but also against those who sapped its strength from within.
In 1929 Bloch co-founded the now legendary journal, the Annales: a crusading periodical devoted to removing narrow nationalistic and disciplinary barriers, extending historians' investigations to contemporary events, and covering a broad range of social, economic, and cultural phenomena.
Carole Fink is the translator of Marc Bloch's Memoirs of War, 1914-1915 (CUP, 1988).

 Marc Bloch: A Life in History (Carole Fink) - review
It is very much an intellectual biography, concentrating on Bloch's academic career and writings and on the wider currents of French history.
More generally, it contains material about academic life in France between the wars (when Bloch was trying to obtain a position in the Collège de France) and then under Vichy, and about the effects of totalitarianism and anti-semitism on the intellectual life of the Third Republic.
Marc Bloch is an odd choice for Cambridge's cheap Canto imprint, since it is likely to have limited appeal to the general reader.

 Fernand Braudel Lucien Febvre Marc Bloch Annales school Mediterranean
In 1935 he made a decision that was to change his life: he accepted the offer of a five-year secondment to the new university being established with French help at São Paolo, Brazil.
Braudel afterwards said that it was whilst in Brazil that he became "intelligent" - it is possible that inherent challenges to his own background and cultural heritage posed by living in a non European society changed his outlook in important ways.
By the end of the war the work was substantiually finished as a first draft, it was rewritten, with critical advice supplied by Febvre, until it was finally presented in 1947 as a thesis of over one thousand pages.
