The period between 1945 and 1960 in Quebec offers a double interest: on the one hand, French Quebec literature comes to a new life and opens itself to urban modernity, and on the other hand, Jewish literature in Montreal reaches its golden age while signs of an imminent crisis become obvious. The present article describes this situation mainly from the French Quebec point of view, as a radical experience of destabilisation and disorder, at a time when new Jewish writers are putting into question tradition and fidelity to the origins.
