Summary "Histoire de Paris depuis le temps des Gaulois jusqu'à nos jours - I" by Théophile Lavallée is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles the evolution of Paris from its earliest days, during the time of the Gauls and Romans, through to the significant events leading up to the French Revolution in 1789. It focuses on the city’s origins, major battles, and its progression into a vital center of culture and politics in France. The opening of the book provides a detailed account of Paris's early history, starting with its primitive beginnings as a small settlement called Lutèce. Lavallée describes the city's transformation under Roman influence and the resistance put up by the Parisians against external invasions, including the famous battle against Julius Caesar's forces. The narrative explores significant figures such as Julien l'Apostat, discusses the city’s layout during the Roman period, and highlights the key developments that began to shape Paris into a notable metropolis. Through this, the text sets the stage for a broader exploration of Paris's history, emphasizing its resilience and significance in the shaping of modern France.
