"The Mediocre Internationale." The expression is Georges Bernanos's, and he would have uttered it in conversation with Stefan Zweig in 1942, in Brazil, a few days before the Austrian committed suicide. Bernanos survived him by a few years. Bernanos and Zweig had fled Hitler's war: their world—the civilized and idealized "world of yesterday" described by Zweig—had collapsed. Europe had entered a mad decline. In the book ZB (Ed. Mèl·loro Rosso), the Majorcan philologist and writer Jaume Capó, through the texts of both intellectuals, recreates in the form of a play a meeting that would have taken place in Barbacena, in the farm where Bernanos had settled. [The book includes the Catalan and Portuguese versions.]
