Description:
Hardback. New. Looks at the ways sports and games are metaphorically used to defend and subvert, to praise and mock both class and political power structures in nineteenth-century France. This book examines what shaped these games of the nineteenth-century and how they appeared as allegory in French literature, newspapers, historical studies, and game manuals.
