Bøker av Eugen Weber

The end of the nineteenth century in France was marked by political scandals, social unrest, dissension, and "decadence," yet also by great social and scientific progress. In this thoroughly engaging history, Weber describes ways of life, not as recorded by general history, but as contemporaries experienced them.

Fifty years after reaching France by way of school in England, Weber presents a series of illuminations on the country he loves, and whose civilization he has made the centre of his work. "My France" focuses on politics, myths, personalities, public problems, actions and conflicts in French life.
