- This c.100,000 word monograph resulted from a sustained twelve-year investigation, including a year’s research in Parisian libraries and in private papers held by the families of the conductor Jane Evrard and composer Yvonne Desportes. Further extensive work was undertaken with online copies of sources in France and the USA. Nearly all the archival sources consulted were in French and the author (not a native French speaker) undertook time-consuming translation work in order to make many of them available in English for the first time. The monograph places the insights from this interrogation within a feminist framework.
