Alternative Modernities in French Travel Writing: Engaging Urban Space in London and New York, 1851–1986 (Anthem Studies in Travel)

Tracing spatial practices of French travel writers in London and New York from the period 1851 to the 1980s, this book contributes to a growing body of work that analyses travel and travel writing beyond the Anglophone context, and engages a body of writing in questions surrounding French material, cultural and aesthetic modalities for negotiating and establishing a nexus of meanings for life in the modern city.
