Abstract

In the urban space, especially in the Parisian one, there can be found marks of both the traditional and the bookish culture. The dwellers of the big city can be found in literary typologies of a physiological type in the texts of the 19th century writers, especially in prose pages. Mentalities, imagology and literary patterns merge in the literary construction, analyzed through the sociological, semiotic and thematic values.
