From the ^nineteenth century

In Normandy Island

The nineteenth ^century the century witnessed a new impetus in regional literature in which authors island, such as George Mtivier (Guernsey, 1790 - 1881 ) and Robert Marett Pipon (Jersey, 1820 - 1884 ), played an important role.

During his exile in Jersey and Guernsey, Victor Hugo was interested in the language of the islanders and fishermen welcomed the authors Norman islands. To John Sullivan ( one thousand eight hundred thirteen - 1899 ), Jersey author, Hugo wrote in 1864 that Jersey is a "valuable local language" and in the Channel Islands, Hugo wrote: "As for dialect, it is a real language , to be despised at all. This dialect is a language full, very rich and singular. "

And taking the word Norman octopus he had heard during his talks with Jersey and Guernsey to use it in his novel The Toilers of the Sea , Hugo had popularized the regionalism that will slip to later in the French language.

In continental Normandy

Norman literature.

Norman scholars, as part of learned societies, were interested, like Hugo, the various forms of patois and dialects present in continental Normandy. The novelist Barbey d'Aurevilly and embellished some of his works, especially those that happen in the Cotentin, with words heard in the countryside and from the Norman language.

In the years 1890-1910, the popular folk invade the Cotentin, and we owe to Alfred Rossel , song, songs sent up today, especially the EM Sus , a sort of national anthem of Cotentin (wikisource). A Louis Beuve , Norman Region Coutances , is seduced by this practice of singing applied to Normandy and began to write also poems and short stories he published in the January-Bouais in the late 1890s. His Graind Land Lessay becomes a popular poem. He then published several other works and introduces the occasion of the Millennium celebrations (the attachment of the Cotentin in Normandy) in 1933, the "Dinner of the Vikings' where Norman was the only language allowed. It is emulated in the literature with Norman Jean-Baptiste Pasturel (Priers) Alfred Noel (Valognes) and finally, in a second generation, Gires Ganne ( Fernand Lechanteur ) and paid-Capel (Albert Abbe Lohier). Fernand Lechanteur spellings unifies previously used in the reasoning . Cotis Capel- opens the way for Norman literature freed of the Norman peasant folk features. Through his poems, the poet presses the roughness of the Norman men, their pride, but also their heart and soul. In its wake, Andre Louis publishes first novel entirely in Norman: Zabeth.

The Caux saw a vast literature in Norman cauchois. Among the editions: Ideas Magloire ( 1913 ) of Ernest Morel , The histoures Thanasis Pequeu Gabriel Benoist in 1932 , and 1925 of the Earthy Gaston Demong.

Finally, in many novels and short stories of Guy de Maupassant taking place in or around the Caux as Toine, the local characters speak sometimes Cauchois, but with numerous grammatical errors (conjugation) voluntary or not, and also often phonetic inappropriate (eg instead of me or mei). Maupassant cauchois to the mix of popular forms of French (eg "a" becomes a stone, while a cauchois queuque or say "or is she is?" Becomes ousqu'elle is?, Then we say that cauchois ouyou it is?, etc.).. In reality, he wanted to be understood by readers speaking standard French.
