“…68 Together with London, some Swiss places, and Brussels, Paris was the leading center of German opposition politics, which had become increasingly impossible within the confines of the German Confederation itself; the principal tool for this were newspapers aimed at the mass of migrant workers in these places as well as to be smuggled across the German border. 69 Between 1830 and 1848, about a dozen (mostly short-lived) German-language periodicals were published in Paris, of which seven were at least partly aimed at contesting the existing political situation in Germany. 70 In 1844, Vorwärts, which was published twice a week, was the foremost German newspaper in Paris.…”

In the 1830s and the 1840s, Paris was a gathering place for numerous political exiles from different nationalities, including Germans, Italians and Poles. The French capital offered them the opportunity to publish, debate and transnationally exchange ideas with one another in ways that were impossible in their home countries. This article develops a research perspective on these exiles that connects intellectual history with urban history and migration history. It proposes a localized intellectual history that studies how political thought emerges in interactions enabled by specific geographical contexts, in this case the Parisian urban landscape and metropolitan culture. The article first argues why the proposed connection between intellectual, urban and migration history needs to be made. Subsequently, three case studies are used to explore the methodological opportunities of this localized intellectual history: the salon of Marie d’Agoult, the Collège de France and the editorial offices of the German exile newspaper Vorwärts. While the three places largely differ in the kinds of sociability that they offered, the intended public and, by extension, the ways in which they stimulated the formation and exchange of ideas, they appear to be connected by the people who frequented them. It will be argued that focussing on these places enables us to study the process of intellectual transfer and how it is informed by the characteristics of very local geographies, which serve as junctions in the transnational contexts in which modern political ideas, such as nationalism itself, are produced.
