Examines the rise of art nouveau in France as part of a reform led by the Central Union of the Decorative Arts--but also discusses its links to French neuropsychiatry, which influenced the thinking of art nouveau artists.

Silverman traces the roots of the new style by examining rococo revivalism and the renewed interest in the 18th century, also considering the complex world of hu-man psychology first explored by Freud's teacher Charcot in explicating the shift from a new art of heroic iron and glass in 1889 to an art focused on the domestic and intellectual in less than a decade....Contents as follows: Introduction: The transformation of Art Nouveau, 1889-1900--Part I. The Goncourt's legacy: The Brothers de Goncourt between history and the psyche--Part II. Fluctual nec Mergitur: Belle Epoque and fin-de-siècle: Aristocratic ralliement and social solidarité--The abdication of technology and the elevation of the crafts--Amazone, femme nouvelle, and the threat to the bourgeois family--Psychologie nouvelle--Part III.
