This text was automatically translated. Read in original language.
The aim of the class "Cultural Paris" is to present the socio-cultural history of Paris in the 19th and 20th centuries on the basis of excerpts from literary works, scientific and newspaper articles, guidebooks and monographs. The classes will thus attempt to capture the city at a time when myths of Paris are born and develop (Paris the modern city, the myth of the Parisian boulevards, the myth of the flâneur, the myth of the Parisian woman, Paris the capital of art, Paris the city of secrets, etc.). An integral part of the course will also be an introduction to selected topics in the history and historical topography of the city. The topics will be arranged chronologically, from post-revolutionary Paris to Paris up to the beginning of the 21st century.
The format of the course will combine elements of lecture in the form of a brief presentation by the instructor of a selected issue or issues, the purpose of which will be to introduce the topics discussed and illustrate them through selected reproductions and historical documents and data. The remainder of the class will be devoted to discussion of previously suggested excerpts from texts, works of art and films.
Over the course of the semester, students will be asked to search in any source and in any language and watch suggested films whose themes are related to the topics discussed.
