  • The Smile Revolution

    In Eighteenth-Century Paris

    de Colin Jones CBE ...
    You could be forgiven for thinking that the smile has no history; it has always been the same. However, just as different cultures in our own day have different rules about smiling, so did different societies in the past. In fact, amazing as it might seem, it was only in late eighteenth century France that western civilization discovered the art of the smile. In the 'Old Regime of Teeth' which ... Leer más

Yet a generation of artists pushed back against these changes, ... Leer más

    Frequently perceived as a characteristic of modern culture, the phenomenon of celebrity has much older roots.

  • The Cambridge Companion to the Literature of Paris

    Edición de Anna-Louise Milne ...

    No city more than Paris has had such a constant and deep association with the development of literary forms and cultural ideas.

  • Historical Dictionary of French Theater

    de Edward Forman ...
    Series series Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts
    The term "French theater" evokes most immediately the glories of the classical period and the peculiarities of the Theater of the Absurd. It has given us the works of Corneille, Racine, and Moliere. In the Romantic era there was Alexander Dumas and surrealist works of Alfred Jarry, and then the Theater of the Absurd erupted in rationalistic France with Samuel Beckett, Eugene Ionesco, and Jean-Paul ...

  • Disruptive Acts

    The New Woman in Fin-de-Siècle France

    de Mary Louise Roberts ...
    In fin-de-siècle France, politics were in an uproar, and gender roles blurred as never before.

  • Creole

    Portraits of France’s Foreign Relations During the Long Nineteenth Century

    de Darcy Grimaldo Grigsby ...
    This book addresses the unique and profound indeterminacy of “Creole,” a label applied to white, black, and mixed-race persons born in French colonies during the nineteenth century."Creole” implies that the geography of one’s birth determines identity in ways that supersede race, language, nation, and social status. Paradoxically, the very capaciousness of the term engendered a perpetual search ... Leer más

  • Historical Dictionary of French Literature

    de John Flower ...
    Series series Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts
    Almost all of us know French literature, even if we don’t know French, because it is probably the second largest and certainly the most translated into English. And, even if we don’t read, we would have seen film and television versions (think Count of Monte-Cristo) and even a musical rendition (Les Mis). So this is a particularly interesting volume in the literature series, since it covers French ... Leer más
