The French Revolution

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the transformative years surrounding the French Revolution, this volume presents a compelling narrative that reinterprets the dual revolutions of 1789. The first aimed for egalitarian ideals, while the second, led by Bonaparte, established an authoritarian regime. This tension between revolutionary aspirations and emerging authoritarianism profoundly influenced the development of the Republic, ultimately reshaping the political landscape after the fall of the ancien régime.
