The Bourgeois Citizen in Nineteenth-Century France : Gender, Sociability, and the Uses of Emulation
Bok av Carol E. Harrison
The Bourgeois Citizen in Nineteenth-Century France analyses the process by which class society developed in post-revolutionary France. Focusing on bourgeois men and on their voluntary associations, Carol E. Harrison addresses the construction of class and gender identities, and shows how the sociable interaction of male citizens was the crucial bridge between the destruction of Frances's old regime and the development of a mature industrial class
society.
