Citizens

A Chronicle of the French Revolution

Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

From the author of The Embarrassment of Riches, this is a history of the French Revolution. At the heart of this account is the story of the transformation of subjects to citizens. The author aims to show a France infatuated with novelty and technology in the midst of dramatic economic change. The darkening of the original euphoric vision of liberty into a scenario of hunger, anger, terror and death is the author's theme, as he draws on available material of social and cultural history.
