| 要約: | This article examines the way in which a former trend in French salons, the game more commonly known as ping-pong or table tennis, suddenly lost its distinctiveness as an activity prized by socialites and was transformed into an ordinary pastime during the Belle Époque. Drawing on press archives and the gift catalogues of Parisian department stores, this study examines the cultural mechanisms by which a fashionable pastime was reinterpreted and downgraded in prestige. The analysis is based on the advertising discourse and the representations offered by the media, retailers, and manufacturers. |
