Summary | "Paris and the Parisians in 1835" by Frances Milton Trollope is a travel literature work written in the early 19th century. The book serves as a collection of letters detailing Trollope's observations and experiences during her time in Paris, capturing the essence of the city and its inhabitants after a significant political upheaval. The narrative not only reflects the societal changes in France but also Trollope's personal reflections on the cultural climate of the time. The opening of the book sets the stage for a reflective and multifaceted exploration of Paris post-revolution. Trollope expresses her excitement at revisiting the city after several years and immediately notices both familiar and new elements in its landscape. She acknowledges the difficulties of comprehensively capturing the dynamism of Paris and hints at the vibrant political atmosphere surrounding her visit, particularly with the upcoming trial of the Lyons prisoners stirring public sentiment. Through her letters, she seeks to convey the lively sociopolitical fabric of the city, blending insights on architecture, art, and culture with personal anecdotes, as she navigates a Paris that straddles the line between its vibrant past and an evolving present.
