Le Junius français

Le Junius français was a political journal published in Paris by Jean-Paul Marat from 2 June to 24 June 1790. It was Marat's second journal, launched after he returned from exile in London in mid-May 1790 and discovered that his earlier paper, L'Ami du peuple, had been widely counterfeited in his absence — notably by a certain M. Vaudin, who had published thirty issues under that title. To reassert his voice and distinguish his own writing from the imitations, Marat began publishing Le Junius français, whose first issue appeared on Wednesday, 2 June 1790. The journal did not appear between 4 and 7 June, nor between 13 and 22 June. Its thirteenth and final issue was published on Thursday, 24 June 1790. L'Ami du peuple resumed publication on 22 September, after Marat returned to France from London, where he had fled to escape the engraver Maquet, whose wife Marat had seduced while Maquet was giving him shelter. The journal is associated with the French Revolution and the political press of that era. A modern edition, Le Junius français : journal politique, was published in Paris by Éditions d'histoire sociale in 1967 (BNF 33089263).

Le Junius français was a political journal published in Paris by Jean-Paul Marat from 2 June to 24 June 1790. Marat had returned from exile in London in mid-May 1790 and discovered that his earlier paper, L'Ami du peuple, had been the object of numerous counterfeits in his absence, in particular by a M. Vaudin, who had published thirty issues. Marat therefore began publishing a second journal, Le Junius français, whose first issue appeared on Wednesday, 2 June 1790. The journal did not appear between 4 and 7 June, nor between 13 and 22 June. Its thirteenth and final issue appeared on Thursday, 24 June 1790. L'Ami du peuple resumed publication on 22 September, upon Marat's return to France; he had left France for London to escape the engraver Maquet, whose wife he had seduced while Maquet was giving him shelter. A modern edition, Jean-Paul Marat, Le Junius français : journal politique, was published in Paris by Éditions d'histoire sociale in 1967 (BNF 33089263).
