Broken Glass, Broken World: Glass in French Culture in the Aftermath of 1870 (Research Monographs in French Studies)

Crystal palaces and railway stations, greenhouses and arcades, church windows and shop frontages, wine glasses and lamp shades: glass became increasingly pervasive in nineteenth-century France. In this interdisciplinary study, Hannah Scott combines cultural history with close literary analyses of novels by Zola, Maupassant and Huysmans.
