 NCAW Autumn 02 | Marijke Jonker on Gustave Planche
La Revue des deux mondes was the successor of Le Globe, the newspaper that had preached moderate, noncontroversial points of view in the artistic and literary conflicts of the Restoration.
The policy of La Revue des deux mondes was to infuse Romantic writers and artists with a spirit of self-criticism and to combat the excesses of Romantic art.
Both Le Globe and La Revue des deux mondes longed to see modern Shakespearean content combine with classical or Homeric form, not to please the presumed ignorant mass public, but to maintain the greatness of French art and theatre, and their views, particularly in artistic debates, are more accurately called eclectic than juste-milieu.

Thus, despite the Revue's programmatic title, the flow of information and communication between France and Latin America proved to be highly one-sided, an imbalance that was undoubtedly deplored by the creole intellectuals who had recognized the importance of communication via journalistic media for their nationalist project.
The Revue des Deux Mondes thus offered a clear advantage over local Latin American periodicals (which were mostly restricted to a national range) as the infrastructural conditions did not allow for the establishment of subcontinental networks.
The acceptance of an Eurocentric perspective as perpetuated, for example, by the Revue des Deux Mondes, acquires a different significance in the context of Latin America's concrete socio-cultural situation, which privileges the development of a media-supported culture by overlooking the demeaning implications of the European bias.

George Sand tells us that after a battle with the Revue de Paris and the Revue des Deux Mondes, both of which papers wanted her work, she bound herself to the Revue des Deux Mondes, which was to pay her a hundred and sixty pounds a year for thirty-two pages of writing every six weeks.
The literary critic of the Revue des Deux Mondes at that time was a man who was very much respected and very little liked, or, in other words, he was universally detested.
Madame de Musset objected to this, but George Sand promised so sincerely that she would be a mother to the young man that finally his own mother gave her consent.
