Summary | "Paris and the Parisians in 1835 (Vol. 2)" by Frances Milton Trollope is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The book provides a detailed observation of life in Paris, focusing on the distinct characteristics of Parisian society, fashion, and culture during this period. Trollope's writing examines the French social scene, contrasting it with English norms and highlighting unique aspects of Parisian life. The opening of this volume begins with a letter that reflects on the distinctive air of Frenchwomen and their inimitable style, which is immediately recognizable to anyone familiar with the English. Trollope elaborates on the intricacies of Parisian fashion and the societal expectations tied to personal appearance. She contrasts the dress culture between English and French women, noting the former's elaborate changes throughout the day versus the simpler French approach. This letter sets the stage for a wider examination of Parisian life, and it foreshadows discussions on social gatherings, politics, and the city’s vibrant artistic culture that Trollope intends to explore in subsequent letters.
