Cultural Capitals: Early Modern London and Paris

Cultural Capitals: Early Modern London and Paris

by KarenNewman (Author)

Synopsis

Demonstrates that speculation and capital, the commodity, the crowd, traffic, and the street, often thought to be historically specific to nineteenth-century urban culture, were in fact already at work in early modern London and Paris. This title challenges the notion of a rupture between premodern and modern societies.
