About this book
Vie de Bohème locates the particular Bohemia under discussion in Paris between 1830 and 1848, treating other uses of the term as analogies. The account connects the phrase's particular qualities with the social and material conditions of Louis Philippe's Paris, conditions described as having passed away. The discussion excludes Villon, Gringoire, and Marot from the roll of Bohemia rather than treating the name as an unrestricted category.
The account describes a new community in Paris that placed creation above imitation and shared a life in common. The description calls the community's members high-spirited young men, most of them true artists, rather than idlers.
