First published in 2003 Consuming the Past covers pilgrimages to
popular festivals, from modern spectacles to advertising, from the
work of avant-garde painters to the novels of Emile Zola, and
explores the complexity of the fin-de-siecle French fascination
with the Middle Ages. The authors map the cultural history of the
period from the end of the Franco-Prussian war to the 1905
separation of Church and State illuminating the powerful appeal
that the medieval past held for a society undergoing the rapid
changes of industrialisation.
