The Life of an Unknown: The Rediscovered World of a Clog Maker in Nineteenth-Century France - European Perspectives: A Series in Social Thought and Cultural Criticism
Alain Corbin
Corbin recreates the life and world of a man about whom nothing is known except for his entries in the civil registries and historical knowledge about the times in which he lived: Louis-Francois Pinagot, a forester and clog maker who lived during the heart of the nineteenth century -- the age of Romanticism, of Hugo and Berlioz -- from the Napoleonic Wars to the Third Republic.
