Paris for Outsiders

Beschreibung

Long ago, if a provincial man visited Paris, his fellow villagers would revere him for the rest of his life. But that’s all over now. In “The Provincial Folk in Paris,” Juliette Lamber investigates the shifting relationship between Paris and the provinces.

In “The Parisian for the Outsider,” Gustave Frédérix advises: “Among those born in the capital of the world who have never left it, there is no shortage of foreigners and provincials. And in the same sense there are those unquestionably Parisian in spirit among the travelers who have just set foot for the first time in the Gare du Nord.”
