Summary "Les condamnés politiques en Nouvelle-Calédonie: Récit de deux évadés" by Paschal Grousset and Fr. Jourde is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the experiences of political prisoners who were deported to New Caledonia following the brutal suppression of the Paris Commune in 1871. It provides harrowing testimonies of the inhumane conditions faced by these individuals and offers a deep insight into the political climate of the period. At the start of the account, the authors recount the aftermath of the Paris Commune and the subsequent fate of thousands of political prisoners. Grousset and Jourde detail their transport to the prison in New Caledonia, highlighting the mistreatment, harsh living conditions, and the psychological toll that the experience inflicted upon them. They vividly describe their confinement, inadequate provisions, and the stark realities of their new environment, painting a bleak picture of life under deportation. Their narrative sets the stage for a broader discussion on the political and social injustices of that era, aimed at evoking empathy and outrage among readers.
