About Les Temps modernes

Les Temps modernes (lit. 'Modern Times') was a French post-World War II literary magazine, founded at Éditions Gallimard by Jean-Paul Sartre with Simone de Beauvoir to substitute La Nouvelle Revue française, discontinued due to its collaboration with the Nazi occupiers. The first issue of Les Temps modernes appeared in October 1945. It was later published by Julliard (January 1949 to September 1965) and by the Presses d'aujourd'hui (October 1964 to March 1985) before returning to Gallimard in April 1985. It ceased publication in 2019, after 74 years.
