Integration and Its Discontents
Decadence as historical myth and cultural theory
This article traces the early history of the concept of European decadence with special emphasis on its manifestations in French literary production in the period between 1860 and 1900. It argues that decadence was not a historical reality, but a cultural myth, that gave expression to a new, specifically urban experience of modernity first thematized in Baudelaire's poetry and prose work. It further claims that this concept continues to have impo…
The Budapest Coffee House and the Making of "Jewish Modernity" at the Fin de Siècle
The article explores the shifting meanings and unstable boundaries of a specifically Jewish "modernity" that came into existence in fin-de-siècle Budapest. It argues that contemporary understandings of the modern were encoded within discourses about the coffee house, which was simultaneously seen as the site of immorality and instability; as well as the space where literary culture and urban identities were produces.

Popular Bohemia
This book revises dominant historical narratives about modernism from the perspective of a theoretically informed cultural history that spans the period between 1830 and 1914. In doing so, it reconnects the intellectual history of avant-garde art with the cultural history of bohemia and the social history of the urban experience to reveal the circumstances in which a truly modernist culture emerged

Part popular history, part tourist guide, and part epic chronicle, the book presented a loving portrait of the changing landscape of late-nineteenth-century Budapest. No detail of the urban scene was too small or too unimportant to escape the watchful eye of the narrator. …

It distinguishes between two separate though interconnected formulaic narratives about the flâneur. The first is the popular flâneur, associated with a new type of urban commercial culture characteristic of the 1840s; while the second is the avant-garde flâneur, embodied in Baudelaire's critical tex…
