About
Laurent Turcot, a Professor of History at l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (Canada), is the author of Le promeneur à Paris au XVIIIe siècle (Gallimard, 2007), L’ordinaire parisien des Lumières (PUL, 2010) and, in collaboration with Christophe Loir (Université Libre de Bruxelles) La promenade au tournant des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles (Belgique – France – Angleterre), Bruxelles, Éditions de l'Université de Bruxelles, 2011. He is the editor, with Arlette Farge, of Flagrant délit à la promenade des Champs-Élysées, les dossiers Federici 1777-1791 (Paris, Gallimard, 2008). He specializes in culural history, the history of leisure, and the history of everyday life in eighteenth-century Paris and London. Jonathan Conlin (University of Southampton) and Laurent Turcot are currently preparing an English edition of Louis-Sébastien Mercier’s 1780 Parallel of Paris and London, a manifesto for a mutually beneficial, cross-Channel dialogue, one Mercier believed would foster a liveable city and a free yet stable society.
