Creating Republican Paris
Following Napoleon III’s fall, the Third Republic looked to create a Republican capital city, one that broke from Haussmann’s urban ideals. As successive governments hoped to create a republican capital city, they believed it plausible for the new regime to take the best of the imperial city and make it republican; highlighting modernity, security, and growth. This introductory chapter establishes these aims and relates my work with current research on the development of Paris and French cartography.
