概要

For decades, the Paris Morgue was one of the city’s most popular attractions. Thousands of people lined up each day to look at the dead bodies pulled from the Seine, displayed on marble slabs, their stories unknown.

This wasn’t an anomaly. It was part of a culture built on observation. From the wandering flâneur to the spectacle of cabarets, from the underground atmosphere of the catacombs to the public display of death, Paris was a city that taught its people how to look.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The Paris Morgue as public theatre
  • The culture of spectacle in Belle Époque Paris
  • The strange intimacy of anonymous death
  • And why, even today, we’re often more comfortable looking at strangers than at our own dead

Because while we may no longer line up outside a morgue, our fascination with death hasn’t disappeared.

It’s just changed shape.

And when death enters our own lives, many of us turn away.
