Description
Explore how the iconic Paris street urchin transformed into a symbol of revolutionary idealism and cultural memory throughout the nineteenth century. This scholarly work traces the gamin de Paris from Eugene Delacroix's Liberty Leading the People (1830) and Victor Hugo's Les Miserables (1862) through the turbulent political upheavals that shaped French society. The book examines how visual and literary representations of the mythical gamin evolved across avant-garde and conventional art forms, becoming sites of collective memory and masculine identity construction. Published by Routledge as part of their Research in Art History series, this academic text offers critical insight into how street children became emblematic figures in nineteenth-century French cultural imagination, responding to the revolutionary movements of 1830, 1832, 1848, and 1871.
