Summary:
"Beyond the Moulin Rouge: The Life and Legacy of La Goulue is the first biography of La Goulue in English debunking the myths about the performer La Goulue, Louise Weber. Using overlooked archival sources, including Weber's own diaries, this book considers why Weber made the choices that she did and how she challenged contemporary thinking about work, class, gender, and sexuality during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries"-- Provided by publisher.
