Histoire/Geschichte
"Histoire/Geschichte" is a series of Franco-German history coursebooks, published since 2006. The projects aims to create a "shared vision" between French and Germans regarding the history of Europe since Antiquity. The project originated from the "Franco-German Youth Parliament" in Berlin on 21 January 2003 which gathered 500 young pupils from the French and German upper secondary school at the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the Franco-German Élysée Treaty, later taken up by German Department for Foreign Affairs and French Ministry of Education.[1] They suggested the development of a "history coursebook having the same content in both countries so that negative preconceptions caused by mutual ignorance might be avoided".[2]
This coursebook has been available since September 2006 for grade 12 students (Klasse 12/13 in Germany). It is published jointly by Editis in France and Ernst Klett in Germany. A coursebook for grade 11 has also been produced. The set of three coursebooks will cover the period from Antiquity to modern times.
Distribution and reception
[edit | edit source]Reviews say it is a symbolic token of Franco-German cooperation.[3][4][5] In 2008, two years after its creation, 80,000 coursebooks had been sold in each country.[4] Since inception, several other pairs of countries have discussed the possibility of creating a bi-national coursebook, including Czech Republic—Germany, Poland—Germany[4] and Slovak Republic—Hungary.[6]
