Abstract: In the year 2051, which will be the one-hundredth anniversary of his death, André Gide will perhaps not be hailed as the greatest novelist which France produced in the twentieth century. His important works are few, and have certain flaws which are obvious to most students of literature. However, Gide's contributions to the literary scene have been vastly more extensive than his own relatively few volumes would indicate. His power over the minds of youth horrified members of his own generation; young writers by the hundreds plagued him with pleas for advice. His spiritual influence on our century has undoubtedly been tremendous. As for his literary influence, Albert Guerard, in his book Andre Gide summarizes the importance of Gide in contemporary French literature.
