The Anecdotes de notre temps depuis 1715 à 1736 is a set of 52 manuscript volumes acquired by the Royal Library in 1789 during the sale after the death of the Duke of Richelieu. Archivists itemized the majority of the volumes in the early 19th century and the documents in these volumes got dispersed in different thematic collections of the National Library of France. They generally combined a text and an image and referred to as anecdotes. Fortunately, a particular stamp assures their traceability and permits to identify them in the National Library. In this manner, an anonymous volume preserves around forty anecdotes containing 67 drawings and engravings of fauna and flora concerning the French colonial empire. A reconstruction was made through an intra-inter-trans structuralist approach to reconstruct first the micro-stories behind each anecdote in order to infirm the date of most of the iconographic documents. This approach also made it possible to determine the nature of the collection in the 19th century but also to identify invariabilities leading to the involvement of Antoine-Denis Raudot, class-intendant and secretary of the French Navy. It is believed that this corpus represents in fact the “pre-anecdotes” until Raudot's death in 1737, from which the Count of Maurepas must have drawn in order to partially compile the 52 volumes of Anecdotes de notre temps during his exile (1749-1774). This result and the fact that Raudot's went to New France (1705-1710) as a second clerk now permitted to identify a second set of eight Canadian anecdotes and to be presented here. The transfer of Raudot's “pre-anecdotes” corpus to Maurepas is explained partially by various events that occurred in 1737, the year when Raudot died (heritage, appropriation, saving).

SummaryMultiplicity of inferences is present in a large majority of clinical trials and conducts to false analyses or interpretation issues. The main risk consists in false positive conclusions. A large number of statistical methods is available for controlling the rate of false positive conclusions. But formal adjustment is not necessary in all cases and depends on the aims of the study.

After the Great War, there were risks involved in being a woman and a pacifist; the risk of being misunderstood, the risk of being ignored or even to be seen as someone trying to change gender roles. Unlike the British or the Americans, French women did not obtain the right to vote after the First World War and continued to be excluded from political and international affairs because of their sex. This did not prevent the creation of a women's movement for peace seeking to be heard on international issues. Women's journal and magazines became fields of actions within which women could exchange and discuss with each other. Analyzing the feminine and pacifist journal “La Mère Éducatrice”, this article will focus on how women perceived and participated in world affairs from the immediate post-war era to the failure of the Disarmament Conference of 1932.
