Bonjours à toutes et à tous !

This is a quick question:

I'm team-teaching France 7/8 with another woman who made up
an exam last week, taking the True/False questions from the
first four 'étapes' in the book, Trésor du Temps.

We had a disagreement about whether the 'correct' answer to
the question about St Denis should be 'vrai' or 'faux'. The
text discusses his decapitation at Montmartre, and the fact
that legend holds that he died at St Denis.

There is not, so far as I could tell in the text, any
reference to historical accounts from that period. (Were
there any historians in France in those days?)

What do you all think?

(And by the way, is there a published 'key' to the 'correct'
answers? We have not been given one.)

I finally suggested that she change the question to one that
was not so ambiguous. (But she chose not to take me up on it.)

Thanks in advance for your responses!

Laura
