Rue Henri Barbusse. Barbusse (1873–1935) founded the Association républicaine des anciens combattants (ARAC), for former left-wing fighters, in 1917, and it continues to exist. He married Hélyonne (1879–1955), the daughter of Augusta Holmès and Catulle Mendès, and a museum dedicated to him is in Aumont-en-Halatte (Oise).'Lutteur infatigable pour la paix et contre le fascisme': 'Indefatigable fighter for peace against fascism.' An appropriate epitaph for the writer who lies in le Cimetière du Père Lachaise in Paris.
