This collection of essays revisits gender and urban modernity in
nineteenth-century Paris in the wake of changes to the fabric of
the city and social life. In rethinking the figure of the flaneur,
the contributors apply the most current thinking in literature and
urban studies to an examination of visual culture of the period,
including painting, caricature, illustrated magazines, and posters.
Using a variety of approaches, the collection re-examines the
long-held belief that life in Paris was divided according to strict
gender norms, with men free to roam in public space while women
were restricted to the privacy of the domestic sphere. Framed by
essays by Janet Wolff and Linda Nochlin - two scholars whose work
has been central to the investigation of gender and representation
in the nineteenth century - this collection brings together new
methods of looking at visual culture with a more nuanced way of
picturing city life. -- .
