Erwan Vallerie

Erwan Vallerie (1944 – 10 February 2022) was a French Breton nationalist and cultural activist.

Life and career

Born in France, Vallerie worked as an economist when he founded the monthly periodical Sav Breizh with Yann Choucq (Debout Bretagne, Stand Brittany) in 1969. In 1971 it became a bi-monthly study review. It continued in this direction until it dissolved in 1975. Vallerie then concentrated on historic and linguistic research.

He died from a fall on 10 February 2022, at the age of 77.[1]
