Focusing on Paris in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the author explores the emergence and development of ideas such as 'sociability', 'comfort' and 'the home.  \u003cp\u003eOn the basis of extensive and original research, Pardailhé-Galabrun describes early modern Paris as a city of contrasts: between buildings constructed as rental properties with ordinary, cramped facades, and the townhouses of the nobility, with carriage entrances, standing on lots alongside spacious courtyards and gardens. She has produced a vivid picture of the texture and warmth of life in the domestic world of pre-Revolutionary Parisians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cb\u003eAnnik Pardailhé-Galabrun\u003c\/b\u003e worked closely at the CNRS with Professor François Crouzet and Professor Pierre Chaunu.
