What made French people lonely, self-conscious, worried, bored, hysterical, violent and have more or fewer children? How did they behave as soldiers, colonists and criminals? How can one make sense of their religious and political squabbling? This volume is indispensable to all who are interested not only in France, but in the history of psychology, literature and intellectual life, which it illuminates with a wealth of astonishing insights and amusing detail. This is the fifth and final volume of the paperback edition of France 1848-1945. Theodore Zeldin (1933) is an Oxford scholar and thinker whose books have searched for answers to three questions. Where can a person look to find more inspiring ways of spending each day and each year? What ambitions remain unexplored, beyond happiness, prosperity, faith, love, technology or therapy? What role could there be for individuals with independent minds, or who feel isolated or different, or misfits? Each of Zeldin's books illuminates from a different angle what people can do today that they could not in previous centuries.
