These Parisian British and London French citizens occupy a very particular place in the wider native and migrant compositions of the Paris and London metropolises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This afternoon seminar and early evening public event consider the diverse experiences of the British and the French who made, and continue to make, that crossing to the other\u2019s city. It examines aspects of when, why and how they make their lives there, and what happens when they do. These British Parisian and London French lives incarnate the symbiosis between London and Paris which endures and which transcends the political weather. Speakers and participants are drawn from a range of specialists on Franco-British cultural relations, and from those currently engaged in making a life and a home in the neighbour\u2019s city.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\">If you have any questions, you are welcome to get in touch at paris@kent.ac.uk.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week\u00a0we are hosting a conference which considers who, when, why and how the British make their home in Paris\u00a0and how the French become Londoners, historically and today.
