For Baudelaire, Paris streets conjured visions of the past even as he contemplated the present. This book investigates this and other cases of double vision, tracing back into antiquity and following Baudelaire forwards as his poetry is translated, received and referenced through text and film to the twentieth century and beyond. 8 b/w illus.

An investigation of Paris as an urban and a poetic site of remembrance. 

Urban space is an immediate experience of life as presence; it is also, at the same time, alive with memories of the past. . This edited volume investigates what it means to remember and how it is that Paris has come to embody the tensions of this feeling of seeing double. Surveying Paris in film, poetry and prose, from Baudelaire onwards, but also from Baudelaire backwards, it presents the city as both a concrete reality and as a collection of myths associated with it. Interdisciplinary and deeply researched, the essays distill complex concepts of the urban, the textual and the modern for a wide readership
