Humanitarian aid, propaganda and story-writing
1Studying the experiences of refugee children from their own points of view – as opposed to the points of view of adult witnesses, or the retrospective testimonies of the adults these children later became – is an appealing project, but also quite a challenge for historians2. It is obviously difficult to find personal writings or autobiographical accounts by refugee children. But even when we do find these sources, they pose a number of methodological questions. Like all kinds of historical documentation, children’s writing is constructed: it would be naïve to expect that they offer some form of direct, immediate access to children’s hearts and minds. Even private, personal sources such as diaries are constructed narratives, a form of “self-staging” as Michelle Perrot pointed out3. Moreover, children’s sources, depending on the context of their production, can be prompted, supervised, controlled, and sometimes censured by adults. As such, they require careful scrutiny and source criticism.
2This is particularly the case for the fifteen biographical notebooks written by the Spanish refugee children who lived at the colony of La Rouvière, just outside of Marseille in the south of France (fig.1)4.
