Après une partie rassemblant des réflexions globales et théoriques sur le nocturne, cet ouvrage montre comment le rapport de l'homme à la nuit fluctue avec le temps et l'âge, et pas seulement avec les événements de la vie, illustré de témoignages de personnes âgées essentiellement. Il s'intéresse enfin à la nuit telle qu'elle est vécue : insomnie, travail, SDF...

Often treated like night itself-both visible and invisible, feared and romanticized-Latina/os make up the largest minority group in the US. In her newest work, María DeGuzmán explores representations of night in art and literature from the Caribbean, Colombia, Central and South America, and the US, calling into question night's effect on the formation of identity for Latina/os in and outside of the US. She takes as her subject novels, short stories, poetry, essays, non-fiction, photo-fictions, photography, and film, and examines these texts through the lenses of nationhood, sexuality, human

Maciej Dakowicz spent five years photographing the nighttime revelries that take place in Cardiff every weekend. Focused around a few pedestrianized streets in the city centre, Dakowicz’s images capture nightlife fuelled by alcohol and emotions.The arc of an evening’s entertainment is brilliantly captured in these candid photographs, which reveal fun, hilarity and bawdiness as well as fighting and drunken exhaustion. There are stag nights and hen parties, men dressed as superheroes and women dressed as Playboy bunnies, mountains of discarded chip wrappers, arrests by the police – and lots and lots of posing for the camera.Dakowicz’s images, at times shocking or upsetting, at others affectionate and wry, form an important documentary photobook of British urban life in the early part of the 21st century.

Before skyscrapers and streetlights glowed at all hours, American cities fell into inky blackness with each setting of the sun. But over the course of the nineteenth and early twentieth century, new technologies began to light up streets, sidewalks, buildings, and public spaces. Peter C. Baldwin’s evocative book depicts the changing experience of the urban night over this period, visiting a host of actors—scavengers, newsboys, and mashers alike—in the nocturnal city. Baldwin examines work, crime, transportation, and leisure as he moves through the gaslight era, exploring the spread of modern police forces and the emergence of late-night entertainment, to the era of electricity, when social campaigns sought to remove women and children from public areas at night. While many people celebrated the transition from darkness to light as the arrival of twenty-four hours of daytime, Baldwin shows that certain social patterns remained, including the danger of street crime and the skewed gender profile of night work. Sweeping us from concert halls and brothels to streetcars and industrial forges, In the Watches of the Night is an illuminating study of a vital era in American urban history.
