{"product_id":"the-invisible-flneuse-marsha-meskimmon-9780719079429","title":"The Invisible Fl穗euse?: Gender, Public Space and Visual Culture in Nineteenth Century Paris","description":"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 fl穗eur, 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFramed 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aruna D'Souza\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 071907942X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719079429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.60w x 0.50d","brand":"Aruna D'Souza","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43993987252479,"sku":"9780719079429","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3e0ed2c-7e4a-495f-9ecf-a9c5f018efcb.jpg?v=1683327458","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-invisible-flneuse-marsha-meskimmon-9780719079429","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
