Beyond the sheer entertainment value of the stories themselves (who would fail to be amused by Louis Dominique Cartouche's adventures or enthralled with the scandal and gossip surrounding the "Affair of the Necklace"?), there is much to learn in this volume about eighteenth-century French popular culture and the shifting perception of those who escaped from prison in the period. Each essay brings a wealth of archival information and critical perspectives to its object of study and develops the central argument laid out by the two editors in their introduction....

Synopsis
This volume is a study of the interdisciplinary nature of prison escape tales and their impact on European cultural identity in the eighteenth century. Prison escape narratives are reflections of the tension between the individual's potential happiness via freedom and the confines of the social order. Contemporary readers identified with the prisoner, who, like them suffered the injustices of an absolutist regime. The state imprisons such renegades not just out of a desire to protect the public but more importantly to protect the state itself. Hence, prison escape tales can be linked with a revolutionary tendency: when free, such former detainees equipped with a pen openly and justly challenge the status quo, hoping to inspire their readers to do the same.
