Paris: "A City of Ideas"
Paris is a city built on ideas. These ideas coalesce into narratives, myths and stories that form a neural network of urban life. "A City of Ideas" explores these Ideas toward an understanding of how Paris developed as a modern city. This podcast series was created and narrated by Roger Mummert (rogermum@aol.com).

Intro: Quelle Bourgeois!

Roger Mummert
"Bourgeois” by definition means middle class. And while most French citizens are middle class, you would be hard-pressed to find anyone who wants to be called bourgeois. “Quelle horreur!”
Indeed, in France, “bourgeois” has a complicated biography. We explore that in this series.
