Zena Chiara Masud

[Edition Originale] en 1 volume in-8 demi cuir de Russie, 446 pages.

Usures extérieures, traces de mouillures en haut de pages (sans gêne pour la lecture) - Agréable exemplaire.



C’est un ouvrage de type récit descriptif / voyage / promenade locale autour de la « vallée » dans le Val‑d’Oise, proche de Paris. 

‑ Il s’agit d’une description des communes situées dans cette vallée : Montmorency, Deuil, Épinay‑sur‑Seine, Montmagny, etc. 

Le style mêle géographie, histoire locale, anecdotes, vie sociale, paysages, architecture, parfois sentimental. On y trouve aussi des réflexions culturelles sur la villégiature, la nature, le charme de la campagne tout près de Paris. 

C’est un document précieux pour qui s’intéresse à l’histoire locale du Val‑d’Oise, aux banlieues du XIXᵉ siècle et à la manière dont les paysages, les villages, la vie quotidienne de cette vallée étaient perçus dans ce temps.

Il permet aussi de voir les transformations du territoire autour de Paris : les chemins, les routes, les chemins de fer, les villas de villégiature, le tourisme domestique, etc. 

Très utile pour la toponymie, la géographie ancienne, l’urbanisme, les usages sociaux au XIXᵉ siècle dans cette région.

Une ouverture poétique : l’auteur évoque la vallée comme un lieu de villégiature, de repos, de charme bucolique, où se rende ceux qui cherchent à fuir l’agitation de Paris. 

Il décrit maisons, jardins, sources, ruines anciennes, les caractères propres de chaque commune, les curiosités naturelles, les monuments, les églises. 

Il utilise un ton assez chaleureux, une certaine nostalgie, mais aussi un regard critique sur le changement — parfois sur l’arrivée du chemin de fer, sur les transformations des lieux, sur les modifications dans le paysage.

Exterior wear, traces of wetting at the top of pages (without discomfort for reading) - Nice copy.



It is a book of descriptive narrative / travel / local walk around the “valley” in the Val-d'Oise, near Paris.

– This is a description of the municipalities located in this valley: Montmorency, Deuil, Épinay-sur-Seine, Montmagny, etc.

The style mixes geography, local history, anecdotes, social life, landscapes, architecture, sometimes sentimental. There are also cultural reflections on the holiday, nature, the charm of the countryside near Paris.

It is a valuable document for those interested in the local history of the Val-d'Oise, the suburbs of the 19th century and the way in which the landscapes, villages and daily life of this valley were perceived in that time.

It also allows you to see the transformations of the territory around Paris: roads, roads, railways, holiday villas, domestic tourism, etc.

Very useful for toponymy, ancient geography, urban planning, social uses in the nineteenth century in this region.

A poetic opening: the author evokes the valley as a place of vacation, rest, bucolic charm, where those who seek to escape the hustle and bustle of Paris go.

It describes houses, gardens, springs, ancient ruins, the characteristics of each commune, natural curiosities, monuments, churches.

He uses a rather warm tone, a certain nostalgia, but also a critical look at the change — sometimes on the arrival of the railway, on the transformations of the places, on the modifications in the landscape.
