O knihe

Exotic and somewhat dangerous, the culture of Bohemia in nineteenth-century France was seen by workaday Parisians as almost a foreign land -- one rife with passion, immorality, crime, hunger, and freedom. As a revolt against both bourgeois expectations and elitist conventions of behavior and aesthetics, Seigel suggests, bohemianism had a significant impact on the evolution of European -- and American -- society. Bohemianism established "foreignness" as part of modern urban life, providing a possibility of liberation and nonconformity within a capitalist society.
