"Tableau historique et pittoresque de Paris depuis les Gaulois jusqu'à nos jours" by J. B. de Saint-Victor is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This work provides a comprehensive exploration of Paris, detailing its development from ancient times through significant historical events, cultural institutions, and the evolution of its architecture. The opening of the book sets the stage for a thorough examination of Parisian history, addressing the considerable body of literature that has previously been written about the city and identifying gaps in these accounts. The author outlines a grand vision for documenting Paris’s evolution, emphasizing the need for a cohesive narrative that links historical events, monuments, and the cultural milieu of the city's inhabitants. He introduces the organizational structure of the work, which plans to divide the city into 20 quarters and recounts the history and significant transformations of these areas from prehistoric times to the brink of the French Revolution, providing insights into the urban, cultural, and political landscape of Paris across the centuries.
