The Long Nineteenth Century

From the enragées to the dreyfusardes.

About the author

Etudiante, fainéante, républicaine et bonne à rien.
Who: Thirtysomething ambiguously autistic rationalist-adjacent.5 fannish recovering academic and fake musical theatre geek. Devotee of Vidocq, Lyonnaise at heart, an accidental scholar of the nineteenth-century French penal system and a quasi-expert on Hugo's "Le Dernier Jour d'un condamné." My primary contributions to the fandom are the #Toulon asks tag and a Toulon-era, Chenildieu-centric fic on permanent hiatus. You may also know me as the source of the words in Susan Bin's Rudolph rant [http://yosb.tumblr.com/post/42990681512/its-a-metaphor-yosb].
What: This tumblr started out as repository of 1789-1848 French geekery but evolved inevitably into a Les Mis blog. It retains its original purpose by being the home of the Toulon ask. I talk about nineteenth-century French convicts most of the time and often blur the line between fiction and reality while doing so. Toulon-only sideblog is toulon-bagne-official.
When: From March 2013 onwards. I don't post as frequently as I should.
Where: New York.
Why: Because I have to talk about The Thing somewhere.
