Introduction: The castizo metropolis -- Madrid, "Villa y Corte' -- The Nineteenth-Century capital -- City of contrasts -- Cosmopolitan lights -- Urban cosmorama -- Epilogue
Summary
Despite its international significance, Madrid has been almost entirely ignored by urban, literary and cultural studies published in English. A Cultural History of Madrid: Modernism and the Urban Spectacle corrects that oversight by presenting an urb an and cultural history of the city from the turn of the century to the early 1930s. Between 1900 and 1930, Madrids population doubled to almost one million, with less than half the population being indigenous to the city itself
