N2 - This article explores the pioneering role that the literary and intellectual circle formed by Marius-Ary Leblond around the journal La Grande France (1900-1903) played in the gestation of both la littérature coloniale of the Third French Republic and postcolonial Francophone literature. Following a bio-bibliographical account of the circle and its members, it will present the journal's aesthetic and ideological programme with a particular emphasis on theoretical reflection about colonial literature, with a view to reassessing the circle's legacy. In addition, through a study of the main agents (Pierre Bourdieu) behind La Grande France, and their affiliations, both colonial and extra-colonial, it aims to document and reflect on the unlikely connection between colonial ideology and avant-garde aesthetics and business model, and on the consequences of this cohabitation. © 2013 Intellect Ltd.
