Summary/Abstract: Ioana Pârvulescu´s book În intimitatea secolului 19 / Privy to the Nineteenth Century (2013) is a comprehensive study of the socio-cultural atmosphere of the pre-belle epoque. Not only is it all-encompassing, it is also subtly underpinned by an astute, in-depth knowledge of the intricacies of Romanian social life in the 19th century, all doubled by effective eloquence.
