In this thesis, we wish to observe French Canadian literary criticism in 1950, during what is referred to as a "dark age" of the intellectual and artistic history. Hence, we decided to analyze three newspapers literary pages, La Presse, Le Quartier latin and Le Devoir, and a specialized journal, Lectures, published in Montreal. Nowadays, this literary criticism is looked upon as paradoxical and outdated because its aesthetics concerns are bent by morals. Thus, we tried to enlighten its axiological criteria, supported by liberal or catholic ideologies, already enabling very modern aesthetics comments, and by doing so, bring into favor a spread out collection of criticism texts.
