1 André Bellessort (born 1866) and Cardinal Baudrillart (born 1859) both died in 1942. The offcial website of the French Academy asserts that Bellessort was permanent secretary too briefly for his openly collaborationist views to damage the Academy. Abel Bonnard (1883–1968) lived in exile in Spain after the war.
