Dear All,
 
I am preparing an essay on The Flaneur in Taxi Driver. I will be comparing
Baudelaire's notion of the Flaneur / urban wanderer, with the character of
Travis Bickle. On the subject of the Flaneur I will use Baudelaire's and
Benjamin's writings. On Taxi Driver I have Kolker's Cinema of Loneliness,
which relates quite well to the subject. However, I was wondering if anyone
could suggest any other sources of info relevant to this topic?
