From the civility of Westminster's newly paved streets to the
dangerous pleasures of Vauxhall Gardens and the grand designs of
the Universal Register Office, this book examines the identities,
practices, and power relations of the modern city as they emerged
within and transformed the geographies of eighteenth-century
London. Ogborn draws upon a wide variety of textual and visual
sources to illuminate processes of commodification,
individualization, state formation, and the transformation of the
public sphere within the new spaces of the metropolis. Readers in
cultural studies, cultural and historical geography, British
history, and a range of other disciplines will appreciate this
book's bold and original contribution to current debates on
modernity.
