A literary and historical discussion exploring political violence, large-scale demolitions, and the upheavals that overwhelm and engulf us.
A conversation between historian Elsa Jamet (Sorbonne Université), a specialist in Haussmann’s major urban redevelopment projects, and author Antonin Crenn, whose latest novel, Rue des Batailles (Actes Sud), follows the life of a resident of this street in Chaillot, which disappeared amid the urban transformations of the 19th century.
