Prix France Culture

The Prix France Culture is a former literary award created in 1979 by the radio station France Culture.

In 2006, it was renamed Prix France Culture/Télérama, and its name was used from 2007 replacing the "Prix Arlequin", cinematographic prize awarded in parallel to the Grand prix du meilleur scénariste.

History

The prize was created in 1979 to reward important authors whose work was still unknown to the general public. It was awarded in early spring, on the occasion of the Salon Livre Paris. This prize was not endowed financially but the book was promoted on the radio. In 2006, the radio joined the cultural weekly Télérama and transformed the prize into Prix France Culture/Télérama awarded under the same conditions.
