And when did we begin to talk about intimacy? Rather than approach the concept as an age-old aspect of love, friendship or desire, \u003cem\u003eIntimacy and Distance\u003c\/em\u003e identifies the nineteenth century as a period in which intimacy and its lexicon came sharply to the fore. Drawing on a diverse range of literary and non-literary sources, Lewis makes a case for thinking historically about intimacy, and recognising its centrality to nineteenth-century reading and writing practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book brings together both canonical and neglected writers, from Baudelaire, Flaubert, and Barbey d'Aurevilly to Sainte-Beuve, Eug ne Fromentin, and Eug nie de Gu rin. Looking beyond boundaries of genre, it analyses verse and prose poetry, diaries and narrative fiction, and arts journalism and travel writing. Lewis demonstrates not only the impact of the idea of intimacy on nineteenth-century French culture, but also the complex aesthetic and ideological conflicts it could incite.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhilippa Lewis is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Bristol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 15, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49198584529048,"sku":"9781781885147","price":28.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0759\/8830\/4024\/files\/WWNRa3FPRTdZc2JNWnQ3bXlCQ2FZQT09.webp?v=1780681957","url":"https:\/\/thepinkflamingobooks.myshopify.com\/products\/intimacy-and-distance-conflicting-cultures-in-nineteenth-century-france-paperback","provider":"The Pink Flamingo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
