Résumé anglais The Decades of Pontigny (1910-1939), François Chaubet. In 1910, during a time in which international scientific meetings were in great fashion, the Decades of Pontigny reflected on the role of intellectuals in a mass democratic society. These periodic residential meetings of intellectuals held in a remote place were inspired by several models of sociability and brought together a relatively big number of people, considering the subjects taken up. After the first World War, they played a non-negligible role in the European intellectual community, or at least in a Franco-German rapprochement. In the 1930s, they led to a critical reflection on totalitarian regimes.
