Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of observations about the people and customs of 18th century Paris. A keen observer and social critic, the author walks the streets, parks, and social gatherings of Paris, and engages with Parisians from all walks of life to uncover their vices and virtues, and the often surprising habits, beliefs, and behaviors that governed their everyday lives. The book explores the lives of the Parisian elite, including anecdotes about royalty and the aristocracy, as well as those of the merchant and working classes, highlighting the great disparity between the lives of the social classes. The book also explores the rise of the bourgeoisie, the negative effects of the political climate on the people, and offers a fresh perspective on the ways in which the people of Paris engage with their city. Ultimately, this book is a love letter to Paris, which the author brings to life in all its beauty and complexity, and an indictment of the deep social inequities that marked the era.
