Preferred term

flâneur  

Definition(s)

  • During the past two centuries, the figure of the flâneur has metamorphosed from a literary type associated with the public places of Paris into a protean cultural myth used to represent the fragmented experiences of modernity. This paradoxical figure came into existence within an increasingly democratized and commercialized cultural marketplace that emerged in Paris during the early nineteenth century. [Source: Encyclopedia of Urban Studies; Flâneur]
