From Rogue to Everyman chronicles the colourful career of archetypal rogue Charles de Julie, foundling, army deserter, pimp, police officer, underground journalist, poet, and prisoner in the dreaded Bastille. Laurence Bongie reveals both the richly woven tapestry of Ancien Regime social history and a ground-level perspective of everyday material life in eighteenth-century Paris, a city of wit and learning where wealth and luxury were juxtaposed with the most squalid and degrading varieties of human poverty, disease, and crime. Julie knew intimately the sights, sounds, and smells of the French capital, its Opera and playhouses, law courts, narrow dirty streets, hackney coaches, great houses, low taverns, and splendid public gardens. only too well the activities of the capital's rakes, thieves, loan sharks, pickpockets, confidence men, blackmailers, crooked gamblers, and rowdy bullying soldiers, not to mention its twenty or thirty thousand prostitutes - all closely watched by as many as three thousand government spies and the eighteenth-century world's most invasive police network. Julie established close contacts with a number of the capital's leading maquerelles as well as their distinguished clients, and his underground news sheets, lifted mainly from secret vice squad reports, provided a restricted circle of wealthy subscribers with racy accounts of the town's sexual dalliances. His story ends in the dreaded Bastille. Extensive quotations from Julie's writings trace the moral itinerary of a clever, manipulating rogue, spirited liar, thief, poetaster, and libertine.

An intricate and provocative journey through nineteenth-century depictions of food and the often uncomfortable feelings they evoke At a time when chefs are celebrities and beautifully illustrated cookbooks, blogs, and Instagram posts make our mouths water, scholar Marni Reva Kessler trains her inquisitive eye on the depictions of food in nineteenth-century French art. Arguing that disjointed senses of anxiety, nostalgia, and melancholy underlie the superficial abundance in works by Manet, Degas, and others, Kessler shows how, in their images, food presented a spectrum of pleasure and unease associated with modern life. Utilizing close analysis and deep archival research, Kessler discovers the complex narratives behind such beloved works as Manet’s Fish (Still Life) and Antoine Vollon’s Internet-famous Mound of Butter. Kessler brings to these works an expansive historical review, creating interpretations rich in nuance and theoretical implications. She also transforms the traditional paradigm for study of images of edible subjects, showing that simple categorization as still life is not sufficient. Discomfort Food marks an important contribution to conversations about a fundamental theme that unites us as humans: food. Suggestive and accessible, it reveals the very personal, often uncomfortable feelings hiding within the relationship between ourselves and the representations of what we eat.

In 1857 the French poet Charles Baudelaire, who was fascinated by lesbianism, created a scandal with Les Fleurs du Mal [The Flowers of Evil]. This collection was originally entitled "The Lesbians" and described women as "femmes damnées," with "disordered souls" suffering in a hypocritical world. Then twenty years later, lesbians in Paris dared to flaunt themselves in that extraordinarily creative period at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries which became known as the Belle Époque. Lesbian Decadence, now available in English for the first time, provides a new analysis and synthesis of the depiction of lesbianism as a social phenomenon and a symptom of social malaise as well as a fantasy in that most vibrant place and period in history. In this newly translated work, praised by leading critics as "authoritative," "stunning," and "a marvel of elegance and erudition," Nicole G. Albert analyzes and synthesizes an engagingly rich sweep of historical representations of the lesbian mystique in art and literature. Albert contrasts these visions to moralists' abrupt condemnations of "the lesbian vice," as well as the newly emerging psychiatric establishment's medical fury and their obsession on cataloging and classifying symptoms of "inversion" or "perversion" in order to cure these "unbalanced creatures of love." Lesbian Decadence combines literary, artistic, and historical analysis of sources from the mainstream to the rare, from scholarly studies to popular culture. The English translation provides a core reference/text for those interested in the Decadent movement, in literary history, in French history and social history. It is well suited for courses in gender studies, women's studies, LGBT history, and lesbianism in literature, history, and art.

" Paris, dans ses permanentes métamorphoses, accumule les secrets les plus dépareillés, les invraisemblances les mieux déguisées par l'histoire, les légendes bétonnées dans la réalité et toute la palette des possibles. " Michel Dansel, enfant de Belleville et de Ménilmontant, définit ainsi, dans une préface savoureuse, sa vision de notre capitale, " véritable kaléidoscope " dont il dévoile les multiples facettes, souvent baroques et extravagantes, avec la curiosité passionnée d'un promeneur " pathologiquement " amoureux de sa ville. Il n'est pas d'avenue, pas de coin de rue qui, pour l'auteur, ne comporte une part d'énigme, de trouble et de merveilleux. Historien et archéologue à sa manière, cet arpenteur d'un Paris insolite et clandestin est prodigue en trouvailles originales et singulières, parfois invérifiables mais toujours vraisemblables. Ainsi évoque-t-il la présence possible d'une cité souterraine dans le quartier du Marais où quatre enfants auraient découvert en 1965 une grotte préhistorique vieille de dix-sept mille ans, dont les peintures seraient comparables à celles retrouvées à Lascaux ; les " trésors cachés " qui se trouveraient dans la statue équestre d'Henri IV, sur le Pont-Neuf ; l'histoire d'une célèbre maison close située au 12, rue Chabanais, dans le 2e arrondissement ; l'existence d'un cimetière des bossus dans celui de Saint-Côme ; d'un club des divorcés qui se réunissait avenue Bosquet ; d'une clinique spécialisée dans la réparation des poussettes et landaus de collection, 16, rue du Chalet, dans le 10e ; d'un pont des suicidés dans le parc des Buttes-Chaumont... Chaque lieu emblématique ou endroit méconnu de Paris est ainsi raconté et révélé sous son aspect légendaire et anecdotique, loin des vérités de l'histoire officielle. La manière à la fois la plus instructive et la plus divertissante qui soit de nous faire découvrir les secrets d'une cité aux trésors inépuisables.
