<note type="summary">Gidian Archives is a database created from the press cuttings preserved by Andr&#233; Gide in his personal collection. The archive consists of articles published during his life on the author's work, his person and his influence on the society and culture of his age. It is well known that the 'key contemporary', as Gide was called, represents an essential reference point for several generations of intellectuals. Thus the articles in Gidian Archives provide crucial evidence on the history of thought across half a century. In addition to press cuttings tracing the critical reception of each of Gide's works, the archives contain polemical articles on his cultural interventions, on his political commitments and on matters of contemporary concern.
Through what his professional readers say about Gide it is possible to follow the careers of other writers who declared and defined their own thought in dialogue with his. Similarly, the evolution of periodicals which published texts on Gide can be traced by means of this key research tool. The interest of the collection extends well beyond Gide studies. The archive is rich in information on numerous aspects of the history of literature, society, culture, politics, ideology, etc., in the first half of the twentieth century. The Search Engine makes it possible to find articles on a given theme ('mots clefs') or an individual ('noms propes'). One can track down all the articles by a particular writer ('auteur') or published in a specific review ('Titre de la revue'). Similarly, items can be selected by date.

<p>The aim of this project is to provide the academic community with an online version, via 'Gidiananet', of the 3000-item press archive from the 'Fonds Gide' of the Biblioth&#232;que Jacques Doucet, including bibliographical details and annotations, integrated with search engine enabling investigation by keyword, and downloading in electronic form of the results of searches. The intention is to stimulate and facilitate research into Nobel-prizewinning French author Andr&#233; Gide (1869-1951), his work, and their impact on the cultural context; and also to facilitate the research of specialists working in associated fields such as reception theory, cultural history, history of press, sociology of literary dissemination, etc.
