FRE 4431 - Paris

Credits: 4
This course looks at the history of one of the world’s great cities. It examines the manner in which new styles of thought, science, politics, fashion and art were elaborated in Paris. It examines the life of its districts and its streets and in particular the response to its population to the redesign and rebuilding of the city in the second half of the 19th century and eventually the building of its suburbs in the 1960s. It looks at the visitors to Paris, tourists, exiles and immigrants and at their representations of the city. The course also studies how Paris, with its Eiffel Tower as its primary representation, became a Romantic myth.
Prerequisite(s) Two French 2000 level courses.
