Despite the scholarship and political activism devoted to keeping
the memory of the Paris Commune alive, there still remains much
ignorance both in France and elsewhere, about the traumatic civil
war of 1871; some 20,000 to 35,000 people were killed on the
streets of Paris in just the final week of the conflict. Colette
Wilson identifies a critical blind-spot in French studies and
employs new critical approaches to neglected texts, marginalised
aspects of the illustrated press, early photography and a selection
of novels by Emile Zola. This book will be of interest to students
and academics studying France in the nineteenth century from a
number of different perspectives war and revolution studies,
cultural studies, history and cultural memory, literature, art
history, photography, the illustrated press, city studies and human
geography. The book will appeal equally to all lovers of Paris who
wish to know and understand more about the city's turbulent past.
