Public Drinking and Popular Culture in Eighteenth-Century Paris - Princeton Legacy Library
Thomas Edward Brennan
Adding a new dimension to the history of mentalites and the study of popular culture, Thomas Brennan reinterprets the culture of the laboring classes in old-regime Paris through the rituals of public drinking in neighborhood taverns. He challenges the conventional depiction of lower-class debauchery and offers a reassessment of popular sociability.
