British born French academic and Holocaust denier Robert Faurisson Died at 89 |
(Y) | Robert Faurisson |
Robert Faurisson was born in Robert Faurisson Aitken on 25 January 1929 and died on 21 October 2018. He was a British-born French academic and Holocaust denier. After the passing of the Gayssot Act against Holocaust denial in 1990, Faurisson was prosecuted and fined, and in 1991 he was dismissed from his academic post. Faurisson is believed to be one of seven children born in Shepperton, Middlesex, England to a French father and a Scottish mother. He studied French, Latin and Greek literature (Lettres classiques), and passed the agrégation (the highest competitive examination to qualify to be a secondary school teacher) in 1956. He became a high school teacher at Vichy, while working on a PhD thesis about the poet Lautréamont. He obtained his doctorate in 1972. He then became a lecturer, and then professor of French literature at the University of Lyon between 1973 and 1990. In Vichy, as a young teacher, he gained attention when he published an interpretation of Rimbaud's Sonnet des voyelles (fr) as an erotic text. Around 1960, he developed political sympathies for the colonialist cause in Algeria (the Algérie française movement), and was arrested in the belief he was a member of the "OAS", a terrorist organisation. These assertions were based on his own interpretation of archival records and his skepticism about the assertions and testimony of various historical figures, including Nazi officials such as Rudolf Höss. He became involved with the Institute for Historical Review during the 1970s, lecturing and publishing prolifically. He twice testified in defense of Canadian-German Holocaust denier Ernst Zündel, and his testimony has been associated with laying the groundwork for the "Leuchter Report", an influential Holocaust-denial publication. Faurisson's activism garnered him several dedicated critics, including the Jewish French historian Pierre Vidal-Naquet. Faurisson interviewed Otto Frank in researching the article, though much of what Faurisson asserted Frank had said was later contradicted by Frank himself. Faurisson's writing on the subject first came into the spotlight during a court case between Otto Frank and Heinz Roth, a publishing-house owner responsible for the circulation of various neo-Nazi writings, including several publications impugning the authenticity of Anne Frank's diary; Faurisson's writing on the subject was entered into the court record as an expert opinion in defense of Roth. The 1978 finding of the court was that Roth must refrain from publishing any further reading material claiming the diary was a fraud. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad granted Faurisson an award for "courage" in Tehran, Iran on 2 February 2012. Shortly after the Gayssot Act, a statute passed that prohibited Holocaust denial, was enacted in 1990, Faurisson was convicted of Holocaust denial in a French court. In 1991, Faurisson was removed from his university chair. He challenged the statute as a violation of international law at the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and Human Rights Committee. Faurisson filed a complaint with the United Nations Human Rights Committee in 1993; in 1996, the Committee rejected Faurisson's claim that France's prosecution of him was a violation of the First Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The Committee upheld the Gayssot Act as necessary to counter possible antisemitism. Further trials followed; among them, one in connection with a publication on the website of the Association des anciens amateurs de récits de guerre et d'Holocauste (AAARGH) in 1998, of which he was absolved due to lack of evidence of his authorship. In 1991, Faurisson was removed from his university chair on the basis of his views under the Gayssot Act.He died at 89 years old.More Famous Dead Visit https://historygreatest.com/
