This dissertation examines the transformation of the French built environment alongside medical discourses of the body in the early 19 th century, arguing that emerging theories on health and hygiene comprised a politically charged subtext in the design of spaces where gender and class identities were formed. Following the military defeats that led to the collapse of the Napoleonic Empire, fears over national decline spurred medical thought on the regeneration of French citizens. The ensuing debates about the body and hygiene gave rise to new architectural programs - such as gymnasiums, swimming schools, and public gardens - where emergent practices for rehabilitating the bourgeois body, both male and female, were implemented. I trace the translation of these spatial forms and practices across a range of military, educational, and recreational settings, to analyze the role of architecture in shaping 19th-century embodiments and expressions of gender, class, and citizenship. This dissertation thus situates the prescriptions that were put in place to educate and reform bodies in the early 19th century at the epistemological juncture of science, politics, and space. Chapter one explores the post-Napoleonic crisis of the soldier ideal and the introduction of physical education and gymnasiums in the army. Chapter two discusses schoolboys' exposure to new bodily practices through military models, and the consequent evolutions in educational architecture. Chapter three studies the transformation of girls' schools as emerging theories of hygiene advocated measures, adapted from military practices, to strengthen the female body. Chapter four turns to the public sphere, examining new urban institutions that were imagined and built for a healthier populace, including community gymnasiums and swimming pools. Finally, chapter five explores the public recreation parks of the Restoration and the July Monarchy, where games and exercises were pursued in what had formerly been private gardens of aristocratic estates. I examine these institutional and private interventions in the context of the densifying, deteriorating environment of early 19th-century Paris, arguing that the resultant spaces of hygienic activity gave figure to conceptions of modern urbanism at the local, architectural level, prior to the large-scale, state-led urban transformations of the Second Empire.
