René Barjavel
René Barjavel (24 January 1911 – 24 November 1985) was a French author, journalist and critic who may have been the first to think of the grandfather paradox in time travel. He was born in Nyons, a town in the Drôme department in southeastern France. He is best known as a science fiction author, whose work often involved the fall of civilisation due to technocratic hubris and the madness of war, but who also favoured themes emphasising the durability of love. René Barjavel wrote several novels with these themes, such as '' Ravage'' (translated as ''Ashes, ashes''), ''Le Grand Secret'', ''La Nuit des temps'' (translated as ''The Ice People''), and ''Une rose au paradis''. His writing is poetic, dreamy and sometimes philosophical. Some of his works have their roots in an empirical and poetic questioning of the existence of God (notably ''La Faim du tigre''). He was also interested in the environmental heritage which we leave to future generations. Whilst his works are rarely ta ...
