Summary
The article discusses the belated recognition of historian Marc Bloch, who is finally being inducted into the Panthéon 82 years after being executed by the Nazis. The content also includes a historical anecdote about King Louis XV's illness in 1744, where a Jewish doctor, Isaias Ulmann, cured him of typhoid fever but the cure was attributed to Saint Genevieve due to antisemitism. The article appears to be an opinion piece by Mario Sergio Conti reflecting on historical memory, recognition, and antisemitism in French history.
