Launched in France in 1921, Lisette was a successful example of the illustrated magazines offering young girls a mix of fiction (illustrated stories, short stories and comics), educational content and star culture. By the late 1950s, these illustrated magazines – for boys and girls – as well as the formula of traditional young girl magazines, often aligned with catholic teachings, were on the verge of obsolescence. New sentimental or star-oriented magazines for teenagers (20 ans, launched in 1961, Salut les copains, 1962), as well as existing magazines like Fillette jeune fille, moved away from fiction and illustration, and many titles simply disappeared in these years. This article examines Lisette’s shifting positioning within the space of youth publications and in particular its unwillingness to be identified as a comics magazine, after briefly trying on that identity between 1953 and 1957.< Réduire
