Romantic Paris

For those of you interested in more information about Paris (and France) during the time Victor Hugo writes about in Les Misérables, that is, after 1815 and before 1848, there is a great website that was created by students at Mt. Holyoke College:

I especially like the section on mapping the city, but there's lots of good information on Parisian daily life as well as the countercultural artistic movement(s) known as Bohemia.
